The Healing Villa we stayed in at the Royal Pita Maha, pure luxury!!
Well I think I have found the most amazing place in the world!! The Royal Pita Maha has to be one of the most beautiful and relaxing places I have ever set eyes on. The resort is absolutely empty, with only a scattering of visitors. This means that we have been treated like royalty for the last 3 days!! It is a constant source of amusement to Marion when the staff at the resort calls me “Mr Andrew”. This combined with the fact that they will do absolutely anything to make your stay as comfortable & pleasurable as possible has made for a very relaxing couple of days. The only negative point about the last couple of days is the weather, it has rained most of the time! Apparently this is quite common for the interior of the island, especially during February and March. Nevertheless, we have managed to visit the Monkey Forest Sanctuary and the Royal Palace as well as fit in some shopping. Managed to experience a really interesting part of Balinese culture last night, called Kecak It’s a bit like the Balinese equivalent of “The Flying Pickets”, but with more people involved and less sideburns!!! We had a really nice meal

This is one of the many "interesting" sculptures to be found at the Royal Pita Maha!!!
at a restaurant called Nomads this evening, but managed to experience a big fight between a Japanese girl and an Indonesian girl. Unfortunately, I didn’t manage to get any photos but it was funny!! Anyway, will be leaving Ubud tomorrow. Really sad to go, but hopefully will have better weather at the coast. Take care and speak soon.
