Given me more to think about. I am a regular traveller to Bali (10+)with my next trip at Xmas time with some wonderful freinds and my youngest daughter. My freinds are getting very concerned, they have been to Bali before with us but at the moment feel uneasy. As I have said to them, it is a personal choice whether they still want to go. They need to decide whether there life is worth more than the $3,000 they have paid for their tickets. If they are only going because they don't want to loose out of money, they are going for the wrong reasons. At the moment we are still going but I may very well change my mind by the time we leave. If I am going to worry to the point I believe my safety is in jeopardy I will not go.
My concerns are that where is terroism going to strike next. It could happen anytime, anywhere and I don't want my life ruled by this. Perhaps we will still go, perhaps not, maybe another destination, who knows. I love Bali and I don't want terroism to rule. Like all we have saved our money for our holiday, taking a long earned break away from work, planned what we were going to do and were so excited about going.
Let's hope these terroists are dealt with severely.
