You'll find lots of Balinese offerings everywhere while you walk down streets in Bali. They are made from coconut leaves and filled with colorful flowers and fruits.  You might see notes in some of them. I saw almost everybody made small offerings everyday and left them on the street or in front of houses. These are ritual and very religious things.
