i left sydney on the 23rd of november via brissy . the flight was great as always with air paradise .
the next morning was off to breaky at the melasti resturant on the beach what a way to start a day ....then came the news air paradise had gone broke ...Shock panic .....into a cab and off to sanur and the qantas office . they were great, got a free flight home via singapore (adding 4 hours to the trip)the return trip was great ..thanks to qantas
the weather in bali was great , except the last 3 days were there was afternoon rainstorms (returned on the 5 th december)
the streets are very quiet not many tourists at all ...
i found we needed to haggle a little more to get the cheaper prices .this is really hard time for the people of bali .but the people of bali are still smiling and made us fell very welcome ....
the melasti was great as always . we had a Cottage Suite Room , plenty of room for my clan of 2 adults and 2 children , they are currantly doing up the the Cottage Suites and look very nice ...
only prob i had was they overcharged me for room servive (which i am still trying to recover the lost money )
got plenty of bargins and saw plenty of the sites of bali
all in all we had a great holiday once we sorted the return flights got to see many of the frends we had made from other trips .
you can email me for a link to my web site or for any more info that you mite require, i have photos of the melasti rooms .

on a sour note . which really worried me being a father of 2 young girls . is that the younger guys are getting right into porn movies and the comments and touching of young girls is very worrying .we had our girls walk in front of us ,so we could keep and eye on them
