Tom, Gwen and Gili Air

We met a fabulous couple during our roadtrip around Bali. Tom is a software engineer (who also bears a striking resemblence to James Taylor) and Gwen has had lots of experience working for different organisations like CIDA and VSO. She's been everywhere, man! They are both from San Fransisco, but Gwen is originally from the Guelph area in Ontario. I guess it is a small world after all.
Okay, so the point is, is that they were the catalysts for us taking a boat trip from Bali to a tiny little island called Gili Air. They had just visited and sold us on how small and quiet it is. After bombing around Bali and crashing through the Kuta chaos, this island sounded like just what we needed.
And it truly was. There is absolutely no traffic except for the tinkling of horse-drawn buggys and squeeking of rusty old bicycles. The obligatory snorkelling, sunning and cocktail drinking were on the itinerary for sure but attending a local wedding was not something we expected to be doing. I've never crashed a wedding before, but people seemed to be happy to have us there. Well, everyone except the bride and groom who, if you take a look at the picture, are looking bored at best.
