We are in Bali at the moment. There is extra security e.g. extra check points for visitors coming from Java,Helicopter flying over daily, under cover Police & more which the everyday tourist is not aware of.As a parent myself I believe each family has to make their own decision, however Bali is still Bali & the Balinese have suffered enough at the hands of others. We have heard the Aus media have been "over the top"with Travel warnings.We are happy to be in Bali,but as I said the decision is with each family.
