Day 9 Christmas day

Merry Christmas from Bali. This morning we started the day with a walk through the rice paddies behind the villa. It’s very beautiful and the walk has views to Mt Agung and Mt Batur. We’ve ordered the crepes for breakfast today and they were very delicious. The breakfasts the villa staff have made have been excellent. Stu and […]
