This ploughing was the most action we saw.

Everything was open plan: no walls

At lunchtime we stopped in Sanur. The beach was much cleaner than when I was here last and the view of Mount Agung ethereal. Unfortunately, the people at the warungs (shops) along the path were very aggressive. This is a good place to avoid if you want peace.

After lunch we drove down to the very southern tip of Bali to see Ulu Watu - the temple overlooking the sea.

For dinner we went to Sharkey's which is just south of Denpasar Airport. You choose your live seafood from the tanks and dine on the beach while watching the sunset.

Our driver who is NOT recommended tried to take us to another location when we asked to go to Sharkey's - this is a pretty common practice. Insist on THE ORIGINAL!

Most customer come when it's dark and miss the best part of the experience. This was one of the few places we visited where there was anything close to, say, 40% capacity. It was nice to have a small crowd - it felt normal. Bali was otherwise a ghost-town and the atmosphere depressing.

You eat off of waxed paper covered baskets. Definitely get some BBQ'd chicken!
