The most amazing experience - our snorkel trip. Glass bottomed boat, 2 stops, lunch stop at Gili Menu.
1st stop - Clara and Aiysha so brave. Both snorkeled, but Roxy just swam after the first dive, but swam at each stop, which was amazing! The first stop had the strongest current we've ever been in, and there was no way to swim against it. We were dragged a long way with the guide - just us, a girl and the guide - pretty scary stuff, and the boat came to get us. Saw amazing fish!
At lunch we went to a turtle sanctuary and donated some money to keep preserving them. The turtles were so cute. After lunch we did our second dive, and this time we saw so much - snakes, massive fish, and finally so many turtles! Daddy stayed with the guide and a girl, and they ended up diving down and stroking the turtles as they swam - one actually tried to bite them! What an amazing experience! One of the best ever!
When we got back, we played swings and sandball. Clara + monkey nuts = lots of mess.
Moved into the most amazing family room also with an outdoor bathroom shower area, beautiful bed and veranda with a horse in the garden and hammocks. Sat outside and read, and did some colouring in. Clara told me to write "Clara slobbering over her hand with those monkey nuts".
Wanted pizza again, but still broken. Went to a bar, which didn't look impressive, and, er, wasn't. Bruchetta was rubbish, and we had to send all food back. Horrible. Chef, who wasn't really the chef, was very sorry and didn't charge us. Mummy and Rox went home, but Aiysha and Daddy went to get more food, and ended up in Biba and had spaghetti and bruchetta. Took some back for Mummy, but too tired to eat.
Watched the geckos chase each other and read before bed. So peaceful here.
