In Reply to: 1st timer to BALI posted by buffy on Thursday, 1. September 2005 at 21:37 Bali Time:
In Oct it doest rain often but when it rains it buckets down, it usually only lasts for a hour in the afternoons, good excuse for a bintang .Transport is easy in and around Kuta for cabs but the further you go away from Kuta the harder they are to find, Ubud doesnt have cabs nor does most of Bali so you rely on Bemos, but thats no drama either. Ubud is a great place but I suppose its not for everyone, theres a lot to see including the monkey forest, Temples, Art & crafts etc etc but it all depend on how much time you intend to spend in Bali and what your looking to see
Theres some info & Pictures on our page that may help
Hope U have a great holiday
