everywhere changes once people start flocking there!!! As you can see I have a penchant for ISLANDS. ;-)

Btw, I took my then baby daughter to Bali four years ago, and it was better than I'd remembered it from trips there in the early '80s (when I used to live in Perth). The bombings had kept the tourists away out of fear. We found the locals so welcoming we ended up in 5* hotels for $20 a night (which I'd budgeted for losman!). I do hope the tourists have started returning ...the Balinese desperately needed the trade.
