[Lombok] - Tanjung Luar

 

 Last day in Lombok...

 Need to check-out after having our breakfast.

 

4D/3N nice view for breakfast and dinner...

 

accompanied by 2 dogs, but I had to be very cautious as

there were many kittens around too... As you know I scared of cats!

 

Photo snapping time!

   

 Hubby just impatient waiting for me at swimming pool.

(we didn't touch the swimming pool as back to hotel late,

and super tired after whole day snorkeling).

Ask hubby to take some photos since he got nothing to do ;P

  Enjoy the morning sea breeze...

 Ok, let's go~!

 

About 45 minutes drive from hotel... we reached Mataram,

provincial capital of West Lombok. 

 It's about 6:30 am, and traffic jam along the market...

 Lines of Cidomos parking and waiting for customers

 in front of the market.

 

Stopped by to packet the same authentic Ayam Taliwang Nada
that we had yesterday for our lunch.

Fish mongers selling fresh caught fish and seafood near the 

entrance of Tanjung Luar Port. According to our guide,
this fish market is known for selling Sharks!

 

2 hours comfortable ride with private MPV car.

Yes, we spent lots of time traveling for 4 days using this car. 

 Tanjung Luar Harbour to go to southeastern of the peninsula.

This harbour is more like old fishing village with

most locals are fishermen  as you can see rows of boats along the beach.

Too bad it's quite dirty with lots of debris everywhere.

 

Here comes our boat...

Let's go to Gili Petelu

 with our experience and nice boatman!

[Lombok] - Gili Kondo (길리 곤도)

 

 Leaving Gili Kapal to Gili Kondo...

But our guide told us that we're going to have lunch at the sea

at the other side of Gili Lampu.

Ayam (Chicken) Taliwang, special local food from 

 famous restaurant, which the traditional way of cooking handed down 

from the chef that previously do the cooking for the King of Lombok.

 Just relax and had short nap on this calm water... 

 

  Welcome to Gili Kondo.

 Idyllic Island for secret escape!

Although we saw another boat, but didn't see other visitors there...

Tour guides and boatmen hiding inside the hut.

  Free time to explore the whole island...

 Perfect spot to admire the beauty of Gili Kondo...

see the calming blue sea and sky, listen to the soft sound of waves and wind. 

 Or walk to further end for another good view, however there's no shelter.

You have the luxury to enjoy the whole island 

up to your heart's content.

We didn't snorkeling because hubby said he's tired and

there's no place to change our cloths. Don't want to catch cold

because wearing wet clothes for few hours on the way back to hotel.

Drying up myself but don't want to become charcoal.

Time to go back~! See you again!
