Arrived back yesterday after six days in Bali. Probably my 30th time and have never ever seen Bali so busy. Maybe Independence Day, maybe cheap fares, I don't know. Traffic just horrible everywhere, went via bypass road everywhere just to avoid traffic jams, had to book most good restaurants at least two to three days in advance. A lot of Europeans (German, French etc) lots of Japanese. A group of approx 200 bikies up and down the roads, had a party across the road from our hotel (Ocean Outrigger) one night and boy was there some noise. Still love it though.
