Dyed Roosters

I love these natural looking roosters kept in handmade weaved baskets.

The Village is laid out with three strips of "houses" with two "laneways" in a large rectangle.

Sarongs for sale

The village has several arts & crafts "houses" selling different items Bali and Indonesia are known for.  These batik sarong prints were for sale.  These are massed produced sarongs and not handmade.  I have almost every single one of them.  I found that I could buy them for 40 000 IDR a piece if I haggled well and bought in multiples.  Not a bad price when they started off at 200 000 IDR each.

The village notice board.  Rabies can be spread when dealing with the local bats that people try to capture for food.
