| Simple notes: Emerging from the clouds, two impotent vulcanos! Landing. The airport is small, low, sorrounded by palms. Looks like Salvador, Bahia. Happily Judy is waiting for us. We changed $500 and got more than half million rupies. The route to Ubud, at night is different from all I know (as is going to be the rest of the visit). Few trips on earth can bring such contrasts together, like going from Kansai Airport to Ubud. We had dinner at Cafe Lotus, on a table facing a lotus pond, and on the other side the entrance to a temple where there is taking place a performance (gamelan and dance). I'm scared. I don't know if I want to go back. Space, flowers, open, happy are some of the words that come often to my mind. Urban development has always been associated with chaos. Here is extreme chaos. Lush greenery. New dimension for the word "tropical". |
