The main thing to do while on Gili Trawangan (actually, on any of the three Gili islands) is to get scuba certified...which we did not do. It takes 3 days but we arrived just around Noon after a scary boat ride from Senggigi and just wanted some time to relax.
Here we are, waiting for one of these boats to take us to Gili Trawangan |
We almost considered not getting on the boat because it was going to be overloaded |
But took the chance despite our better judgement and survived |
After making it to Gili, we found our hotel and our room...and what a great room it was!
Paul likes the flowers on the bed |
So much space but more importantly - an AC unit! |
Nice big bathroom too! |
Only negative was that it lacked the flush-o-matic 5000 |
On March 23, we decided to walk around the island a bit.
Looking towards Gili Meno |
Also looking toward Gili Meno |
These horse carts were everywhere but cost way too much so we didn't ride them |
Mountains in the background are on Lombok |
Paul was giving a disapproving look at the dirty beach water...nope, we did not go in |
On March 24, we decided to walk in the opposite direction for a couple hours...
Paul found a statue he didn't like |
We found more pretty beaches that we didn't swim in |
It was super hot...good thing we took this picture before I started sweating like crazy |
It was a lot quieter on this side of the island...kind of wished that we stayed over here |
Locals riding bikes |
We found this cool place to hang out for a bit |
At dusk we were able to see the mountains on Lombok |
