walking out at night.
Don't want to scare anyone, but if you are heaing to Bali , especially alone, keep your personal safety in mind when you are out by yourself at night.
My friend was attacked and robbed last Saturday night after leaving Dolphin's Restaurant.She was dragged along the road and they took her bag, She is only a little person in stature, so she has been hurt by this quite badly.
Not going into all her personal details on the forum , but this is just really to alert you to TAKE CARE,this is not isolated the Police informed. we can all get a bit complacent at times, I know I have just got back and I was alone at night sometimes as well.
One thing I have been doing is when I am driving by myself is locking the door the last couple of trips.
Australian Embassy were useless , thank God for Jacqui, my friend from Bali Rock who helped her out by lending her some money for immigration, taxi etc, as all her money was stolen.
Given the present "climate" re warnings etc, thought I would just let you all know about this as well as it is felt it was "set up"
