We are staying in Ubud at the end of January 2014, and are in a lovely little village in the rice fields. It is very hot in the middle of the day. We walked one day for several hours and drenched in sweat,  almost couldn’t make it home.

There have been some clouds and big rain storms and the mornings and evenings are maybe 70°—85° F. At night we have a cool breeze through our second story Balinese style home. We sleep with all the windows open and a fan on and it is lovely and comfortable for sleeping. I easily sit out at night with my shorts on, and  riding our motorbike at night wearing t-shirts is fine.

The Edogawa Commemorative Garden is located on the grounds of the Gosford Regional Gallery. Extending over 4,000 square meters, the garden is based on a traditional shuyu (strolling style) garden, incorporating Japanese features. It is a lovely place, with meandering pathways, a roofed Japanese pavilion overlooking the Koi pond, raked dry stone garden and a traditional Japanese tea house.⠀

A large measure of the shore of Toowoon Bay beach in New South Wales Australia is festooned with huge flat-topped boulders, interspersed with sand and rock pools. It is an extraordinary place and I couldn't help taking dozens of photographs of all the interesting vistas.⠀

The Butcher Bird may not be much to look at, but it has a lovely, fluting song. The homeowners in New South Wales, Australia, where we are house and pet sitting, feed them small pieces of meat and they are happy to come down out of the trees and land on the deck railing to eat them. Sometimes if we are standing near the railing, they will alight a few feet away and stare at us, begging for food. Afterwards they fly into the tree and reward us with a song.
