day 9: ubud




After dropping Daniel off at camp, we went to the ubud market. The Ubud market is a multi level experience, easy to get lost in all the twisty turny passageways. It has food and clothes and artwork and jewelry. Basically everything you find in the stores, but at bargain prices. Typically the stores have the best choices, but the market has much of the same things for less. Dave really enjoyed the bargaining aspect of the Market. We bought some art and some clothes and will Daniel back tomorrow because it’s really a thing a see. I think we’ll give him 100,000 RP (which is like $10) to see what he’ll do with it.


The first time we were in bali, we ate at Satri’s Warung and it was so good, we came back 9 years later. If you want Satri’s banana chicken you must order it a day in advance. It is the most delicious chicken in the world. And much worth the interesting and odd location. It is down a long winding alley with artwork lining the walls. It feels like an alley way, but really it’s where a lot of people are living, so it’s like you are walking thru their home. And eating in their kitchen. There are family toothbrushes in the bathroom!
