We  arrived in Bali and went to our hotel and chilled out for a day. It was hard adjusting to the weather (it was raining when we left Australia) every day so far I have worn a T-shirt and shorts and still I have been hot. On day 2 my cousin  and aunty arrived.

After staying in Bali for a few days we went by plane to an island called Lombok then by boat to a tiny little island called Gili Air (ay-ere) it’s only 1.5 km long and 1 wide and there is no cars and only 800 people (not including tourists). We went on a snorkeling tour around  the other two mini islands we stopped on an even smaller island than Gili Air for lunch. There was a turtle sancuary there and you could pay the equivaent of 10$ to free a baby turle into the ocean, so we did and we named him Yipes, he was sooooo cute and we got to hold him and pat him then watch him swim away!!! Also on the snorkeling tour we saw fully grown turtle swimming around deep down in the sea, we were alowed to pat it if we could hold our breath long enough to reach the bottom. After our stay on Gili Air we all went back to Lombok for 2 days after that we said bye to  our cousin and his mum.

In the past 3 days we have benn staying at a nice little hotel while dad climbed Mt. Rinjani  (Indonesia’s 2nd highest mountain, 3,726m)
I will post some photo’s soon.
