We just received this email newsletter and I thought it was interesting .......

"Despite arrivals numbers stuck in purgatory from Australia, Bali managed to rack up one of its best Novembers ever in terms of foreign tourist arrivals totaling 113,844 - a number +81.55% ahead of the same month in terror-affected 2005 and +3% ahead of November 2004. In fact, November 2006 will go down in the record books as one of the strongest performances for that month, suggesting that once Japanese and Australian numbers revive Bali may be truly booming."

It got me wondering. I know many people are still commenting on how quiet the streets still seem. Is it case of people ARE arriving, but more people are choosing to stay in areas such as Ubud, Candidasa, Lombok etc instead of Kuta, Tuban and Legian??? What do people think?

21 more sleeps until we head back to paradise!
