Indonesia Island Trip. Day 2: Gili Trawangan

The 3 islands and Teluk Nara Port to the south
While Nu'man and I were looking for bike rental yesterday, Amin approached us and offered a snorkeling trip to the 3 nearby islands, Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air. I promised to meet him today 9 am at the hotel lobby.

We stopped at the three island and spent our time leisurely as it was private boat rental. Included two stops for deep see snorkeling and one within the turtle conservation area.

Among the islands, the Gili Air was the most serene and in fact the beach was so fascinating. I would recommend to stay here if you're looking for a peaceful and quietness.

After the noon, we headed back to Gili Trawangan. The half-day snorkeling trip left us with memorable moment and exciting activities, especially Nu'man.

We cycled to the Ombak Sunset Resort after resting the whole afternoon. And stopped at one of the beach cafe, quite near to the resort, witnessing the sunset views. Then, we had a dinner at Warung Melati, recommended by Amin. The restaurant located near to Gili Trawangan's night market, but a bit away from the tourist sight.

Swings by the sea is quite common in Lombok

Journey Review

Thinking of the same idea as what Zarin did in his wrapping up post, I'll do the same for the sake of my own record.  This post will be updated from time to time. Some of the trip may have a  specific write-up  and you may click on the travelling month. Here is the world travel map, courtesy of TripAdvisor. A bit of Statistics: Total countries visited = 22/195 [Last updated : September 2023] Our Travel Map. [Courtesy of TripAdvisor. According to them, we only covered 13% of the Earth at the moment :P .... still long way to go and we didn't show USA map as to when we will be there]

Singapore Trip: A lion-city escapade

Watch out! It is a zika-free :P trip to the city of light that we had on the 2nd mid-term school holiday, apart from the 'balik kampung' to Ipoh and JB on both week end. My wife managed to secure a stay for 2 nights at the 'Rumah Peranginan Persekutuan' where it supposed to be a big family trip with my siblings.  It was a big vacation house, which I believe can cater at least 15-20 people. For some reasons, they had to turn it down. Note: Pictures taken are not in the best quality as I'm still get my hands on the new DSLR camera.. wink.. wink..

Shopping sakan di Langkawi

Kenangan bersama mak... Bulan januari yang lepas, rombongan keluarga Perak buat trip ke Melaka. Sekarang giliran keluarga Johor pulak pegi berjalan.. errr bershopping sakan di Langkawi. Kalau nak diikutkan, gambar tengah syiok bershopping lagi banyak. Tapi takde sapa yang snap gambar . Hujung minggu kali nie serentak dengan Tahun Baru Cina.. ALhamdulillah dapat kumpulkan adik-beradik bersekali ngan mak ayah, buat trip ke Langkawi. Cuma keluarga adik yang bongsu pergi lebih awal. Dapat la die snap gambar kat Langkawi airport. Pagi hari pertama kami ke KLIA dan tinggalkan kereta kat sana. Takut terlebih2 shopping masa balik nanti, payah pulak nak sewa van. Jadi kami bawak kereta memasing. Kadar parking lebih kurang RM150 untuk 4 hari 3 malam. Bila buat kira2, lebih kurang je dengan sewa teksi pergi balik ke KLIA.
