Ok, bit slack - been here for one week.
Will do full report when we get back to aust.
But in summary:
I think there is more tourist here than 10 months ago - definatley more aussies.
Ex rate has been a consistant rp7000.
Weather has been quiet good - not too humid, had rain one afternoon (fell in buckets for about 1/2 hour), got 10 drops yesterday afternoon and alittle more later in the night.
JL Melasti is still closed - the hole in the ground is progressing and they are now almost to Jl Benesari (and filling in afterwards).
JL Benesari is still blocked (another hole) just down from Taman Legian Gardens.
Prices on the street seem the same (although i shop for business so other people may notice a difference perhaps).
As usual Balinese are in good humor still and make you laugh, I am sure there is more 'timeshare' sellers on the streets - enough is enough already.
ANyway time for swim, ask any questions, will be back on here later today or besok.
