A drive to Ubud and into a totally different climate and landscape. We drive around the rice paddies north of Ubud before sitting down to lunch at the Lotus Café. We discover that the Puri Saren Palace sleeps guests and on our visit, the guide confirms a free bungalow. We book in. The surroundings are spectacular and we have a beautifully ornate and extravagant veranda next to the residence of the Ubud Royal Family. After tea on the terrace, we go to the Pura Desa to be seated for one of the nightly performances of the traditional Balinese Baron Dance. The music is entrancing, the vocals eerie and the performance equal parts beautiful and comedic.
We return to our terrace for some more tea and pass the evening making grand plans for our future.
