Katie,
On any overseas trip the secret is the leave your trouble and cares on the door step as you close the front door on the way to the airport.
I went to Bali for the first time in August and had a wonderful time with my family. It is like no other place on earth if you go with an open mind
as JG suggests you will have a great time. Yes it's hot and the streets dirty and you will get hassled to buy, especially when you first arrive but its part of the culture, its something that you have never experienced before and you will see things you have never seen before, is'nt that why we travel. Just go with a sense of fun and adventure and you will have a good time.
Just one word of warning you will be offered many times to take a ticket that you could win a prize from. You will always win, but it is just
a scheme to get you to invest in a timeshare property.
Please give us a report when you get back.
Have fun!
