One afternoon the villa staff taught us how to weave coconut palm fronds. Actually it would be more correct to say that they tried to teach us. It's amazing what the Balinese, both men and women, can do with their hands. Each design has a name (sorry, I've forgotten them all) and are used for weddings and temple ceremonies. Some are even used to boil individual portions of rice in, rather like a packed lunch!
After all that running about, it was time for a massage. That's my masseuse on the right. Be warned, she's a whole lot stronger than she looks!!
