A painting of the April, 2013 crash landing of a Lion Air flight into Denpasar. - IMG_20131127_135738809
Did I mention that Lion Air was the airline we booked to take us to Yogyakarta and back to this very same airport? We actually rebooked on Garuda Indonesia for a better schedule. - IMG_20131127_140214273
Typical ornate door finish. - IMG_20131127_170645915
Typical offerings left in the street. Stepping on them is bad form but hard to avoid entirely. They are cleaned up and replaced at least daily. - IMG_20131127_170906793_HDR
The football field. Scheduled to have a 3-story parking garage built underneath it to accommodate tour buses during the high season. - IMG_20131127_173549235_HDR

We awoke to an astoundingly beautiful sunrise over our private jungle slice. - IMG_20131127_174425010
We borrow the Purist's complimentary mountain bikes for a ride through the rice paddies north of Ubud. Bryan is into it. - IMG_20131126_201328958
Bryan relaxes in what he decided to refer to as the "Sala" in our room. - IMG_20131126_203545

Bryan in a great diving/shopping outfit. At first we were worried because the store smelled terrible, but then we realized it was just durian. - IMG_3183
Sunshine filters into our open bathroom. - IMG_3186
We take ourselves out to Three Monkeys, a high-end local restaurant (entrees as much as $10!). Bryan ponders the menu. - IMG_3157
Weird fruit also. This was like a very slimy pomegranate. - IMG_3161
Day two, we strike out to Padangbai for some scuba diving. - IMG_3162
