I have fixed the errors in my earlier message.
The new LP Guide to Bali and Lombok was published this month. I had a quick look at it.
My first impressions were favourable. LP has managed to correct several errors that marred earlier editions:
• the index has now returned to the front of the book;
• the guide now says that the RoRo ferry leaves from Padang Bai to Nusa Penida (previous editions claimed that this ferry left from Kusamba); and
• the guide no longer claims there is a food court at the top of the Discovery Mall in Kuta (the food court closed over five years ago).
Even though it is a new edition, prices keep changing. The guide claims that the price of the ferry ticket from Padang Bai to Lembar is Rp 40,000. I paid Rp 45,000 three weeks ago.
