after our trek we headed straight away to bangsal port to catch a boat to gili air (about 20 minutes by boat). this turned out to be quite a difficult feat. we ended up having to charter a nearly empty boat and after much ado we finally got to gili air. what a beautiful, relaxing place. there are no cars on the island so we took a pony drawn carriage to our hotel! the beaches were beautiful, the people lovely, the waters warm and clear, the snorkeling the best i've seen, and i got dive certified! we loved out time here so much we stayed a week at the coconut cottages, relaxing, swimming, eating and drinking. indonesian people are incredibly polite and kind. i hope we get to return to the islands again someday. see more photos
