Eat, Love, Pray you don't see another copy of that bloody book - Our last stop back in Bali is Ubud. The other half of Bali's tourism duopoly, it is a heck of a lot more cultural than Kuta.
Unfortunately, it's also now crowded with doe-eyed teenagers and recently-divorced women all clutching their copy of Eat, Love, Pray tightly to their confidence-lacking bosom in the hope that they'll find either peace or a piece of a hunky man in the Balinese jungle.
When they don't (and as one says, you can change your skies but you can't change your soul), they console themselves by buying huge paintings they can't get home or floaty white kaftan dresses they shouldn't wear at home. The locals hope that they just Eat, Pay, Leave.
Despite a visit to the monkey jungle, a 14km "stroll" around the rice paddies, an early-morning cycle down from the top of Mount Batur and an all-day festival of spa treatments for 20 bucks, the main thing to share is that we drank Kopi Luwak, coffee made from beans that a cat had munched and then poo-ed out.
Beats Starbucks, eh.

Toni Have almost finished teaching the wee man that all important skill of getting his towel/change mat down before anyone else hee hee.. what can I say, I tend to pretend I am not one of them most of the time. Have just caught up with all the blog. Hols with the girls was lovely. Off to my gran's funeral on Wed (she was 99.... so sad but ok). Other than that we are all well, albeit Mr Ward displaying a rather sore head this morning after some serious wine tasting with Mr Hathaway and Kilmo last night. Loving you lots xxx T
