We have been four years running, and only once in May (when it still rained!) the other three times have been in early February. Ib past years it hasn't been too bad, but just like every where else (it seems) this year was quite a lot different. We had some spectacular thunderstorms, with a LOT of rain. However, as it always so hot (warm?) ot doesn't seem to matter, I recommend a light totally waterproff mac, (for desperate moments, when on a long walk etc.) and flip flops, or similar, so that you don't mind when your feet become wet (which they will).
I have been told by Balinese people that the only months when you can be absolutely sure that it won't rain are June July and August. But I don't believe them. I think that it can rain any time...am I right anybody out there who knows?
Whatever, enjoy it the rain doesn't matter unless or perhaps you are a long distance mountain biker, hiker, or mountaineer, even then you'll probably be made wetter by your sweat than the rain!!
