Last time I was in Bali I withdrew large amounts from ATMs every few days. It seemed very convenient, and I believe I got a good exchange rate. The fees were a few dollars a pop.

So, I'm just wondering why so many people take large amounts of cash? Do you get a better exchange rate? Are you worried about the security of using ATMs in Bali? I really don't get it.
