Lombok fishing boat
A relatively wordless post today – I think this cheerful Lombok fishing boat speaks for itself.
Where:
Senggigi beach on the island of Lombok, Lesser Sunda Islands group, Indonesia

Glad you showed us a map, too! 🙂 I love that photo. Colourful boats and beaches make for a great shots.

Looking at that boat and that beach makes me happy 🙂
My gosh you get around. Lovely warm colours in that boat. Agree about the map being very helpful too.
Thanks guys 🙂
I do like those maps. (Actually, I like all maps). The photo is from a few years ago.
Lovely! The boat, the setting — all very nice!
Lovely! I spent sometime on Lombok a few years ago, and remember this beach.
haha, love the angle! and I always love anything teal and cheerful!
Lovely 🙂
Cathy, Nancie, Jade, Muza-chan – thanks 🙂
Nice colours. Wonder if there is an international law defining the RGB for small fishing boats?
ItalianNotes – You know, I had to look up RGB. And yes, I think perhaps there is such a law 🙂
What a curious angle. Was it about to be slid out to sea?
I saw many of those same fishing boats around Bali. Aren’t they pretty?
Love the angle. Looks like it’s just about to take off or climb a wave.
Nice shot, Sophie!
The boat looks like it’s teetering on the sand! Great colors. The map was a great inclusion.
Nice! I have seen plenty of boats like this one in Indonesia (though I haven’t been to Lombok yet). They are always so striking– bright colors and interesting shapes.
Michael – It’s a few years ago, so I don’t remember what time of day this was. The boats did seem to be lying like that in the late afternoons though, so I would guess it had just been pulled in.
Denise – Very pretty, indeed.
Inside Journeys, Debbie and Jenna – thanks 🙂
Sooo pretty and yes, cheerful. I wish I was there right about now. So cold in Berlin!
Cheryl – Too right! It’s wet and chilly up here as well. A few days on an Indonesian beach would be wonderful right now 🙂
That’s SOME PARKING! I’m not going to ask who parked it, but it wasn’t me!
It really is a happy, peaceful photo… How did you get to Lombok, Lesser Sunda Islands group, Indonesia?
Do you have a post on your travels there? I am interested! It looks like a beautiful place to visit! -shelly
@Journey of a Jungle Girl – Thanks 🙂
I don’t have a post on our travelling in Lombok, but I’ve been meaning to find my notes and publish one. It’s been a few years. We flew from Singapore, took about 2 hours, if I remember correctly. It was a lovely little island, similar to Bali in many ways – there was even a Monkey Forest, but with less aggressive monkeys than the one in Bali.
Just catching up with all the comments I missed. Been busy thumbing/tweeting/facebooking and that newfangled G+1 thinginging. Phew… sorry I took so llong to get back. I love wordless photo posts; my specialty. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely shot with fantastic colors. I also really appreciate NOT writing about Bali. 😉 I saw the map (nice touch) and it was a relief.
I”m looking around at places to take some time off, but it seems like people only go to Bali. I’m sure that’s not the case, so I really appreciate a shot of Lombok. Any other posts about travel elsewhere in Indonesia? I’d love to visit and get off the beaten track a bit. I know Indonesia is huge, and I don’t want to limit it to just the one tourist island.
