In Reply to: Gili Traw sounds fabulous! posted by Katrina on Tuesday, 30. August 2005 at 15:37 Bali Time:
Gili Traw was great, there are 3 forms of transport on the island, walking, riding on a bike or catching a cidoma (horse drawn cart).
There are no street lights outside the restaurant area.
There are no dogs on the island only cats.
At night the cidomas hurtle along the tracks with bells jingling but no lights at great speeds, or at least it seems that way, when you are sitting in the back and swaying and bouncing up and down. Quite an experience. Gili Traw has the reputation as "party island" but to me it was by far the best, good restaurants, nice people, and BaliKana was one of the nicest hotels because of the owners that we have ever stayed at.
If you get a chance make the effort to go there.
