Ubud, Bali- A walk to town with Wayan Part II

Dropping off  the laundry

Inside the laundry: 10 items for RP 15,000



Main Street (Jalan Raya Ubud)

Aesthetically pleasing, but no customers

I like the art in this juice bar.

EMS-like store-Bali style

These offerings are in front of every store daily

Hindu shrine with offerings of flowers and spice

Offering to the god of trees

Street scene with rice stalk decoration on right

Monkey Forest Road

Valuable bird usually kept under basket till fighting or mating

The Balinese love bright colors

Entrance to a family compound complete with temple

Offering to god who brings protection to homes

Custom made home of a Dutchman



Another entrance to family compound

Motor bike (sepeda motor) service man

Service master sign

Family compound entrance

Wayan at the fabric store

Expat drives a hard bargain on making a blue dress

Order given for sheets to be made

Roof tiles that stay with out fasteners except when monkeys through them off your froof

Offering of rice and flowers in front of store

Front door to family compound with offering

Family compound under construction

Terra cota roof tiles

Endless variety of family entrances

So many stray dogs in Bali-Almost none in Java

Creative Family dwelling with temple

Typical sidewalk hazard

Family compound with temple roofs peering above wall

Hamonon Street Pillow shop

This Ibu sews linings in Wayan's baskets

Her shop

The family compound with temple is attached in a typical arrangement




Ibu's storefront: something for everyone


Sidewalk hazards: Wayan prefers the street

Balinese woman making offerings to the house protection god

Wayan and anak-anak on their way home from school


One of three public temples

Palm tree Star of David?

This man is just about to go in. Hindu's only!

Balinese art shopTemple

Temple extraodinaire

Many women can carry bags of goods and food on their head

Market where the Indonesian tourists from Java come

Europeans come looking for a bargain too

Behind and downstairs is the food market
