June Journals

another month passes, another tranche of photos finds its way on to shambolic.

June has felt like a busy month, what with travels to the far reaches of the Island, cycling adventures, school ending, summer school beginning, Eggie’s Birthday, Glastonbury by Proxy, and a brilliant visit from our friend Lee, with her two smalls, Mia and Finn, who have come all the way from Sydney for a couple of weeks (aww yiss!). July is shaping up in a similar vein, with a month of summer school, a move now necessitated by recent landlord fallout, and a planned driving tour of Lombok, the Gilli islands, and maybe Java as well.

hope everyone (north side) is having a good summer. Sydney-siders….well, it will all happen for you soon enough, innit?

here is my best trawl for this month’s caption-worthy photo (along with a fairly lame attempt at caption). you’re welcome to ‘ave-a-go.

till next time…

    Hey Jay. You’ll love Gili Air. We stayed in the gili air hotel as it had a pool. The place was pretty empty so we negotiated a great deal at least half price. Think we were paying ten pounds a night which was double the rest of the huts on the island but well worth it. Get on the locals boat over there as pre booking the tourist boat is way more money. Find the restaurant run by a german woman. It’s on it’s own up towards the hotel. Also reggae bar is nice for drinks and fish. All are good for fish actually as they spear catch them that day. Get Ali from ali’s huts about three down from hotel to take you snorkelling. He’s a top bloke. Dive centre is good too. Also hire bikes and cycle around island plus visit the village in the centre. It’s an idyllic place.
