An artisan village with lots of local artists peddling their craft. We found a great painting here for US$100. Similar size original would be $500-$800 in a flea market. Found a guy who made a custom wood hand carved picture frame for less than $15. And he did it in one day! Lots of talented artist and you will surely find something in Ubud.

Went shopping as part of my A-Phi reunion with Maggie, Linda, Bardon and Gaevert. What fun! Looked in the boutiques but I'm always hesitant to buy anything unless it's low risk because I might want to return it. Found a pair of capri denim pants at Gap (though absolutely nothing else was exciting), a ridiculously cute green jersey cotton top (my green thing!) from a cheap chic boutique and a meshy creme top from Banana. Was fun seeing the girls!

Went shopping with Selena in some district of Taichung. Became fixated on bubble skirts and HAD to find one. Did find a cute brown and white swirly one in a kind of silk material. Am next on a mission for a green top - primary green, of course!

Got four hours to clothes shop at the Fashion Valley Mall without the kids. Got a pair of white pants from Express that fit perfectly - nice and stretchy. Got a couple of saucy tops and a pair of white shoes from Nordy's. Was exhausted by the end of it. I'm not in shopping condition! Anyway, fun but not the most productive.

Hayes Street. Bought my first real piece of artwork! A $600 painting (probably should have tried to negotiate it down) from an artist named Carol Aust. Bought it from a store called Zonal and the store owner's name was Russell E. Pritchard. 568 Hayes Street. 415-255-9307. Zonalhayes@earthlink.com. Zonalhome.com.
