new boxed cheap microwave with me...made everything so much easier as i fed the toddler and 3yr old in room, i filled half my case with tinned foods and 2min noodles, heinz kids meals and had rectangle tub that i used a a little sink to wash plastic containers bottles etc...(mini kitchen.) mind you everything is cheap in bali you could use a new dish each time!! but serously - go to supermarket and get dishwashing lqd etc...Matahari have a great selection now of aussie cheeses, hams etc and yummy sliced fruit platters. I have actually taken 3 microwaves in total as it was cheaper to take from home and only once customs asked what was microwave for and i said to heat "susu" (milk for baby) and that was it...it was the best thing i ever did and was easier to feed baby in room...pram was high chair to feed bub...when we went out to eat the kids would nibble on crackers, chippies, bread or fruit etc...at least i know they were fed in room and had full tummy...each time i left microwave with friend to sell...i cant rave about this enough...and even during the night when my bub woke she wanted warm milk (i tried cold but she wouldnt take!) and bali kettles take sooooooo long to boil...we just returned a couple of weeks ago and our kids are 6 & 4 and this was their 6th trip...never been sick...be well prepared and the holiday will be easy...i took pinocleen wipes and wiped out cot and took glen 20 and sprayed room etc...i could yak for ever if you would like any info just let me know...cheers lisa
