Ubud

This was our last day of the tour and it started off badly. Unlike all the other hotels in Bali our last hotel put on a buffet breakfast that was not only poor in variety but also cold not really what we expected.

After we had finished bitching about the poor hotel and t breakfast we walk up to the monkey forest to see the local monkeys. Although we had decided not to buy any more banana for these monkeys when we got to the forest there was a trader outside selling overpriced bananas so I couldn't help bargining her down to a low price. So armed with bananas we entered the forest and to our surprise we found that these monkeys would gently take the bananas and eat them just beside you.

As we walked through the forest we saw load of monkeys from little babies and young ones to fully parents. We also saw a monkeys climb onto some blokes head and another climb on a womans back it was really quite funny.

We walked back passed some shops and Samantha managed to find the sarong she want at the price we were told we should pay. I found some nice linen trouser but unfortunately they wont barter on the price.

In the afternoon Samantha went for a pedicure and to have her toenails painted with little flowers at for a bank breaking £2.50, Bali's so cheap.
