First of all you mention that you felt so secure behind the 'double whammy' of gates 'protecting' you from the outside world. Then you say that you saw nothing but commercialism. Did it ever enter your 'culturally challenged' mind that you had choen the most artificial and 'fake' area of Bali to stay in? Nusa Dua is about as representative of Bali as Disneyland is of the United States. You then pass judgment on your total cultural immersion into Bali based upon two tours (on buses I guess). Boy that's getting into the culture! I thought I would be generous and say something nice like 'You get what you are looking for' but on second thought I would modify that to 'You get what you deserve'!

Please grace us with the JBR (or whatever) from your next tip to somehwere that you hate.
