I had also heard that because of the bombings and so many repeat visitors to Bali that tourists are tending to stay in resort type hotels and literally stay there, also many go to more outer areas for tours and shortstays. Russians and Japanese spend up big but tend to go to allocated shops, tours and restaurants so that the man on the street doesn't actually see any of the money! Just what I have heard.
