Hi folks
Just came back from Bali. Was passing by that Kuta Raja Rest. on
Sat afternoon and then it got bombed on Sat evening!
We
were walking around looking for dinner and heard the bomb explosion
from a street away, and thought it was a kitchen gas
explosion...that it, until we returned to the hotel and saw the
news...sad sad.
[b]Other than Kuta-Legian, Jimbaran and the south, the
other parts of Bali are still relatively safe, e.g. ppl in Ubud are
absolutely not bothered at all. Also, prices have increased
somewhat, esp. transport cost which have doubled since 1 Oct then
the govt cut out the oil fuel subsidies. [/b]
Thanks for that info, Wanda! May be going to Nusa Dua (and will
probably wanna stay in that area only
) -
hopefully SIA will have some special fares to there shortly...
