From Amed to the Gili islands

We realize we are not island people. The views are amazing, the water is crystal blue, stretching as far as the eye can see,bit especially for Jeff and Hana the waves and constant motion
Make it hard to feel good. We got bitten by so many jellyfish today we had to lie down.

What an amazing place; the Gili islands are sandwiched between The larger islands of Bali and Lombok. Tomorrow
We go to the largely Muslim island of Lombok.

Hi, everyone who is listening! We all are having a wonderful time here, today we went snorkeling at nine, we went to about three places. The first one was amazing, with beautiful vibrant fish all different colors some electric blue, some with a rainbow of colors, so that when they moved it would seem to send rays of sunlight everywhere. The second place was supposed to be known for the sea turtles there. And there was, we saw at least four of five of them. But we had to get out early, because little jellyfish seemed to enjoy attacking us. Then we went to the third, and final place, where there was blue , red, yellow, and white corral with exotic dotted long eels, puffer fish, sea horses, and then another sea turtle! This one I spotted out, it was old and looked like it was having a great time munching on a medium sized jellyfish. Then we all got back into the boat cause Hana was feeling a little sea sick, and then all of the sudden, after dad had gotten on the ship he put his head over the side and started vomiting uncontrollably. From there we quickly went back and now we are at our bungalow sitting and relaxing. See you all soon!
