Mopeds168 viewsTaken from inside the tour car (David, on the right, is driving, Resi, our guide, is on the left). Motorbikes and mopeds/scooters are everywhere in Bali. They're very commonly used to transport more than one person (we saw one with a family of 5 on it!). Quite often, girls wearing skirts will sit side-saddle on the back of bikes.

Bungalow and paths171 viewsMost of the hotel rooms were "Garden View" or "Ocean View" (like ours). There were some seperate bungalows which gave a bit more room, but we were very happy with our room.
