In Reply to: Shape up and ship out (to Bali) posted by Louise_Geoff on Tuesday, 8. February 2005 at 07:41 Bali Time:
It was great to read your messages.
I went to Bali before (almost 13 years ago...) and memories of this trip are magic ones.
At the time we stayed in Sanur and Nusa Dua.
For the forthcoming trip, I think we will first stop in a beach area (to recover from the long trip from Europe), then head to the north, and then Ubud.
However I have to say that I am a bit concerned with the possibility of undesired creepy crawlers, should we rent a villa-type accomodation or a room on ground level.
My other question would be : malaria prophylaxis ?
Some web sites say that it is recommended for Bali, others says no (if you're not staying in central and northern Bali).
If you are going regularly to Bali, what is your position ?
