It's a long 1hr to the islands by boat ...
1st stop: the biggest of the 3 islands, Gili T. Personally, I don't find the place so 'paradise', as mentioned in the books. Many dead corals that poked the feet. Water clarity comparable to other islands in M'sia/ Thailand. I prefer Perhentian ^^ And it's really HOT!!
2nd Stop: Gili M... the 2nd biggest of the 3 islands... we had lunch & just lazed around. The gals discovered baby starfish near the shore (could hear their high-pitched squeak from where we sat -.-'')
We did nothing at Gili M... time to return to Lombok... on the way, we caught a glimpse of the sunset at sea (:
Plan after dinner: chill out by the beach @ Alberto Cafe (:
We had a hard time finding it... Alberto's was hidden by a mean-looking slope. Then the whole group was waylaid by this burger store.
After burgers, our manpower reduced by 50% as the people got sleepy & decided to head back to hotel. But for the few of us who persevered - liJEN, vik, marco, tara_tang, Yuen Simin, jacQ & me - we found paradise @ Alberto's.
Lucky us, we managed to get the cafe's free pick-up service which drove us over the slope and right to the cafe - in style ^^
It's set by the beach & we could have sands in our toes as we sat to dine ((:
