Reasons to travel with an ipod

I got the train from Singapore to KL which is a great way to travel between the capitals. The onboard entertainment selection though had me wishing I had an ipod. Todays selection was the movie “RV”.

I was seated in the second row from the TV screen so I couldn’t not watch it. Once was hard enough, but it was on three times. If there is a TV on I am naturally drawn to it, even if it is a movie that rates 23% at Rotten Tomatoes.

Own a piece of street in Ubud

There are so many cool little guesthouses in Ubud you either need to get a recommendation of which ones are good, or spend a half a day walking around reconnoitering. One street I would like to come back to is Jalan Kajeng.

As you can see from the paving stones they have come up with a novel way of raising money to repave the street. You can buy a stone for the street, which will then have a message or illustration carved on for you. As well as the usual “James was here 2009″ type messages there were a few advertising websites.
