lets ya'll come to Bali and not go shopping, stay in a losman, eat in warungs down the gang, and don't, what ever you do take a tour!
Bring your anti-mosquito juice (denge), DVD's, and raspberry juice and water with you. Instead of a tour, rent a motorbike to see The Island (country), and don't forget your medi-vac insurance. Just think, you'll be much safer cocooned in your nice insular world.
To top it off, you won't even have to communicate with those natives either.
If I remember rightly there have been two terror incidences (attacks) in the UK (excluding Northern Ireland) since the last Bali bombings, but no travel warnings, (restaurants and hotels? How about airports?)and no hesitation by people to go there.
Why....because they're quicker to solve the cases, or better at preventing them?
