how much spending money you should take. I'd budget on at least $100 a day. Take more, if you can afford it. Tours and activities can be expensive, with many of them in US dollars. Waterbom Park isn't cheap either (but it's a fantastic day). As an example, their website offers the ‘Amazing' package at US$41 per adult (transport, entry and lunch). I've no idea what entry alone costs.
Although you can eat very cheaply in Bali, three hungry teenagers are bound to put a big dint in the budget. And then there's the shopping - there's just so much to spend your money on, it's mind-boggling. Start saving now!!!
What a great sister Kym is. I wish my brother were like her. Enjoy your trip!
