Checked out of our hotel at 10:00am this morning, paid the owner and had to play piano with Huanita, his daughter who keeps is awake crying all night whilst he got our change! Got wet from the very bumpy ride with open windows on the boat back to the mainland at 12:00. Had to wait around forever, the crossover of tourists to and from the island is crazy so the bus finally got us back to Seminyak Beach, Bali after 2:00pm! Thats two hours early... A first in As...

Our last day on Gilli Islands today before we travel back to Bali tomorrow and then then have a busy few days in Java the next, so we made the most of relaxing! Sunbathed all day long, even though I couldn't get much more burnt! Went to a restaurant along the strip of bars on the beachfront and got a bed on the beach! This is far better than just laying on the sand as its full of dead coral and very uncomfortable! Of course we had to keep our drinks topped up ...

It's Friday today so our last day to see something so we can have a full day of sunbathing on the beach tomorrow before heading back to Bali on Sunday and being busy busy! We decided to go on a bycicle ride around the Island; just the two of us, how romantic! Or at least it would have been if they'd invent a bike that didn't sink in sand! Ever rode a bike through quicksand before? It's harder than you think! I peddled so hard until the wheels just sank in and...

Today we went to Lombok island! Took local fishing boat for 10,000Rabies (70p) to Pemenang dock. Super cheap considering it's 40 minutes across, however we had to wait around until the boat was full! A very bumpy ride too...vom! Arrived and pestered by 50 million taxi drivers and bike renters!! Before we'd even set foot off of the boat! We're so used to it now though it goes in one ear and out the other! Was told by a local to pay 40Rupei to hire a bike for t...

Woke up at 9:30am and had more dry toast and fried eggs in our guesthouse for breakfast! Got to Razors tour selling shack for 10:15 and met Linda a French woman who was doing the snorkelling trip with us! We walked to the pier, excited thinking there was only going to be the three of us with the whole boat to ourselves!! Guess again! When we arrived there were 70 other people doing the same trip on OUR boat! No wonder the trip only cost £7.50 for the day! Th...
