I have to say something about the drive to the north. If you have never been you must go. Rambutan Cottages in Lovina is a pretty little resort, two pools, tranquil setting, large airy rooms. They sent a driver to pick us up from our hotel in Legian. He will stop along the way wherever you want - crocodile park, Munduk falls, hot springs, coffee plantation etc. The scenery is indescribable - mountains, mist, terraces, cloves - aahh the scent of the cloves. 2 of the best days in all our 6 trips.
