So this was the end aof our tour through Southeast Asia as well as the halfway marker of our entire trip. We only had a week to spend in Bali but it was well worth getting down there for it.

In Ubud we were able to watch some traditional Balinese dance as well as a shadow puppet performance. We walked through endless fields of rice paddies, ate incredible food, a massage on the beach, rode from beach to beach on a motorbike and watched monkeys harrass tourists.

For an island so small it feels like it would take a long time to feel as though you've really seen and experienced all that it has to offer.

And so we leave Asia and head to Istanbul (where we are right now - a very cool city), and begin the European part of our abridged world tour. It's great hearing from you all, and thanks for all the comments. Take care, we're off to Cappadocia on an all night bus tonight.
