    The Gili's

    10. maj 2023, Indonesien ⋅ ⛅ 84 °F

    We took the Fast Boat from Bali to Gili Trawangan one of three Gili's off the cost of Lombok. Getting on the boat was no problem and didn't know what to expect. I think it was on the boat that it came to me that there would be no motorized vehicles on the island. Getting off the boat was a little bit of chaos. Once off the boat one has to pay an island fee. Small Dock, lots of people, no directions, no management, it's a shit show. We survived. Then to get to the hotel with bags requires transportation. Haha. Horse and buggy. Thought I was going to die.
    So this is the party Island for those young people getting away from Bali. Perhaps they just come here for the shrooms? Whatever, there's lots of both.
    We went to the north of the Island, quieter. Go snorkeling on the beach front of the hotel there are plenty of turtles to be found. A walk around the perimeter of the Island is about 3 mile. Do it early because it gets HOT.
    Took a snorkeling trip which took us to the other two Gili's. Meno and Air. Saw lots of beautiful fish, about 8 turtles, two of them sleeping on the coral. And then there was the man made underwater statues which were I have to say pretty cool. Web link below. All in all we enjoyed our time on the Gili and would probably return if the world was a lot smaller. :)
    Gili T for party, Gili M for Honeymoon and Gili Air for retirees.

    Lombok Part 1

    16. maj 2023, Indonesien ⋅ ☀️ 84 °F

    It was my Birthday. 41st.... Moving day again. Fast boat to Lombok. For those who never heard of it, Lombok is supposed to be the Bali of years gone by. The journey was horse and cart to pier. "Fast Boat" Bayliner with a 75HP from Gili T. Arrive in Lombok in 20 minuets. Taxi to the hotel. Qunci Villas. Well impressed and reasonable considering that breakfast was included. See photos.
    During our stay we did some walking, golfing and a lot of hanging around as it was HOT. Did walk to the town of Senggigi which was a little depressing. I guess that over half the small businesses closed down over the Covid 19 lockdown. Did find a bar there called The Office which was on the beach and owned by an English man called Howard. Good people watching....    Læs mere

    Lombok Part II

    18. maj 2023, Indonesien ⋅ ⛅ 82 °F

    In our adventures for food we discovered Coco beach Restaurant. Lovely location by the beach where all the local kid's come for the sunset. Sammy the host was great as was the food.
    Another night we ventured just north of our hotel to a hangout Pizza and Sole Food and drinks. Verve Beach Club. Again a lovely spot to watch sunsets. Here is where we met Mal Ryan the owner. What a treat. Australian and a big horse racing man. That first night will never be repeated. Mal and I solved all of the worlds problems while Caroline taught the bar staff how to make her special cocktails. O Boy!
    We met Mal a day or two later and he invited us to help in some local event. We were not sure what was happening. Anyway we showed up at the agreed time. and off to the local schools we went. What a treat. We got to help give out ice cream and candies to the local school kid's. See photos.
    We have stayed in touch with Mal and want to cross paths again sometime. We told him we were going to Singapore so he put us in contact with Thaim. Story to follow on our Singapore visit.    Læs mere

    Kota Kinabalu "The other side of Borneo"

    4. juni 2023, Malaysia ⋅ ☁️ 84 °F

    Exhausted from turtle and orangutang hunting, we took some time for ourselves to recoup. Five nights in Kota. We got a stay and play (Golf) package at The Pacific Sutra Hotel. Nothing overly exciting here that we found. Some good restaurant's. Golf was wonderful because I beat Caroline. Hooray!
    Energized and now ready for the next adventure. Singapore....

    Borneo is the third largest island in the world. It is also occupied by three sovereign states. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borneo    Læs mere

    Singapore

    8. juni 2023, Singapore ⋅ ⛅ 88 °F

    Got into Singapore and checked in to Oasia Hotel Downtown. I don't think we unpacked our bag's and I received a text. Our friend's back in Lombock put a call into their friend in Singapore who was now in the lobby of our hotel waiting to take us to lunch. Wow.
    Thaim and Cynthia took care of us for the three days we were there. Drove us around, brought us to lunch, The Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay, the Singapore horse races (Thaim's tips were not so good) and finally to the Airport. We can't say thank you enough for their hospitality.
    On our own time we did Chinatown and some good walks around City Center which included a stop at Raffel's the home of the Singapore Sling.
    If traveling to Singapore one should allow some time at the Airport on the outside of security. It is a sight to behold.    Læs mere

    Australia

    12. juni 2023, Australien ⋅ ⛅ 66 °F

    After a wonderful experience in Singapore we land in Sydney and check into Spicers Potts Point in Kings Cross. We found Sydney to be easy to get around on foot, Metro and Ferry. Here we did the Opera House, a cabaret, Bondi Beach, a cruise to see the Sydney harbor lights, Sydney Zoo, , ferry to Manly, an Aussie rules football match and of course some golf.

    We met with friends for drinks. Mark Burke who lived in Seattle and Sean Quinn a fellow Mullingar man.

    I think our highlight was playing New South Wales Golf Course. Not only was it a beautiful golf course but seeing numerus whales breach off sure while playing golf is a once in a lifetime for most.    Læs mere
