here and buy one of thoese $2.00 disposable ponchos. They are packaged very small. Take your own hat I always do ( cotton one that can be shoved into bag) but maybe you will find another nice one you can buy and inter change with. Always best to be prepared in case you don't see a hat early on.You must have a sarong on hand at home. They fold down to nothing and I always carry mine in hand luggage as sometimes it gets chilly on the plane and it does give a bit of warmth.Once again if you see another in Bali you love then purchase that to bring home. Umbrella don't bother, most hotels have then anyway. My way of thinking is I would rather not spend my holiday money on things I can bring cheaply or have on hand at home. Then I have more to spend on the things I really really want.
