Hi all.

Have had friends return from Bali this week after 3 weeks on the island. They had headed to Pemuteran at the end of August for a short stay on my advice but were put off on arrival by the drought conditions being experienced there. Lawns and shrubs dead except for a small area around a sprinkler, signs in the rooms advising water restrictions are to be complied with. The place was really dry and unattractive. We are heading there in 5 weeks time and hope they have rainfall before then!. Any more recent observations welcome!

David
