Ubud

I didn't do my home work, as usual, and didn't know what to expect to find here. I was pleasantly surprised. Miner inconveniences: lots of tourists (I have been warned) and rain (which I learned to appreciate with the time). The rest is just wonderful. The whole town is a living museum and an art gallery. How can a small place like this have so many temples? And art galleries? (Well, the answer to the latter could be: tourists). All this drives the quality up and the whole thing got its own momentum (inertia) - a new building has to be fancy, even a cheap guest house has artfully finished doors and windows, garden layouts is given a thought...
