Pack a couple of these..... Indonesia uses a European two pin plug - you need at least one to plug your stuff into.... Try ebay for cheapy cheapy (too late now - try your local $2 shops)

Wonderful David...
Just to take it right over the top, here is this:
As I mentioned this morning to Charlie,
There is far too much music in Bali,
And altho' as a place its entrancing,
There is also a thought too much dancing,
It appears that each Balinese native
From the womb to the tomb is creative,
From sunrise till long after sundown,
Without getting nervy or rundown,
They sculpt and they paint and they practise their songs,
They run through their dances and bang on their gongs,
Each writhe and each wriggle,
Each glamourous giggle,
Each sinous action,
Is timed to a fraction.
And altho' all the 'Lovelies' and 'Pretties'
Unblushingly brandish their titties,
The whole thing's a little too clever
And there's too much artistic endeavour!
Forgive the above mentioned Charlie,
I had to rhyme something with Bali.

Being tourist oriented, there is free wi fi just about all over the island. Even the smallest hotels and cafes will offer free wi fi to their guests. As a result internet cafes are becoming few and far between.
So if you want to stay connected, then bring your iphone, ipad etc with you. I will be taking a small notebook.
I would recommend premium (No.1) arak and sprite.
I know a good place in Amed to refuel.
