Fishing with DOLPHINS!!
After a morning on the dive boat everyone was a bit too excited by the fish and the boat trip was sorted! A quick call to a captain and the vessel arrived minutes later, geared up with Bintang on board. What wasn't mentioned was the possibility of bumping into dolphins in the first 2 minutes, only metres from the shore...
Rods in and the fish came to play, catching some small red snappers, rainbow fish and the odd rock/fish...
As the sun set and the clouds passed over we found ourselves surrounded in this great sunset cruising back to the island for dinner...

Sunset to sunrise...
Sunset bar it was, listening to some edgy chill out music and sipping some large "bloddy I'ce cold Bintangs mayte"...
Pre drinks started in a new location tonight, the minimart! With air con, hardcore techno speakers and an unlimited drink supply there aren't many better places...
Ruhdys, the nicest bloke on Gilli T, with a smile that makes me look depressed arrived with 25 sachets of Extra Joss. A lethal concoction of vitamins, taurine and cafine this stuff will send you nuts...
We ended up at the surf shack, an outdoor beach rave playing till sunrise. Unfortunatly no phones made it out until sunrise but this 6am shot summed it up...
The last day on Gilli t was spent on one of these beauties, sink into one and your not getting out...
Goodbye Gilli Trawangan, you crazy island...Gilli Air for some luxury bungalows and an excessive amount of amazing food!
Day 4 - Eng v Aus - Morning session @ Trawangan Stadium
England won the toss and it was Mozza to open, after a poor previous season he was looking to regain his recent form...however this was not the case as he only managed to scrape four runs at the Trawangan stadium (waiting for the island hopper at the local boat station)...
The conditions weren't favouring the dampened australin bowling attack with Price being dispatched all around the park
Mozza was kicking off at the local passers by, rudely pitch invading so the drinks break was taken early with England finishing on 68 for 1
...a trip to the juice bar to replenish h2o levels for the afternoon session with England looking to build on their lead.

Vietnam Videos!
Landing in Kualarlumpur on the new double decker A380...
One of the first trips, to Ha Long Bay, a world heritage site made from thousands of tiny islands, caves and floating villages...
Just some of the crazy traffic in Hanoi, this bloke have us a great tour of the city...
This was Mumma from Da Lat Family hostel going on a singing rampage cooking and force feeding frenzie, very amusing, even better in slow mo
Shark point diving - Dive pics now up!
With the sun beeming down and a calm see good visibility was on the cards. Shark point at 2pm to hopefully see some white tips, turtles and the famous blue dotted manta trunk. If you don't fancy it then you could get the party boat...

One of the hundreds of cats on the island. See the clip in its ear? That means it's a pet and it probably won't give you a disease! Cats here only eat rice, give them tuna or gocat and they will turn their noses up.
With an island that has no police or law system, you may be wondering why this bloke is walking around with a rifle and a big chest? Every week these guys rock up with billions of rupees to stock up the cash machines...
They also come to stock up the Bintang, zoom in on this boat and you will see hundreds of boxes of the stuff...
Ready to head down. The dive schools here are super chilled, even if you aren't diving you are welcome on the boat with free usage of the snorkeling gear. As soon as you hop in there are tens of turtles living the dream....
