in May this year. It was a hugely anticipated royal cremation and it was fascinating and I will even say, very enjoyable and exciting. The electricity in Ubud was turned off for a couple of hours to accommodate the amazingly tall funeral tower - at least 4 (if not more) storeys high.

You are looking at this posting from a western mentality. Do a little research and you will find that "our" cremations and Balinese/Hindu cremations are vastly different. I would jump at the chance to go to another cremation celebration like the one in Ubud.
