Hi Newtraveler I am an Aussie but we do have a few US Forumites. I believe the travel warnings are for Jakarta (different island) - the warnings for Bali have been in place since the bombing and (in my opinion) are in place to cover our govt's backsides.
Do a search for JBR's (just back reports) of Micronesian Steve (who I believe is American), his family have recently been to Bali. Also look at Hippiechicks, Marco29 (Canadian I think), or even just do a search on 'american'. You will find the Americans on here love the place as much as us Aussies do.
