We stayed in a tiny but prosperous village just south of Ubud. Ubud, about
an hour drive into the foothills north of Denpasar, is one of the major cultural
centers in Bali, known for its painting, wood carving, music and
dance.

The Dirty Duck Restaurant in Ubud has an outdoor dining area in front of the rice paddies. The view at sunset was beautiful. The bathroom was pretty interesting too: the floor was a pond, and you reached the toilet by stepping across flagstones in the water.
