We are finally on Gili Trawangan, and it is absolutely, gloriously paradise-like. So relaxed and chilled out (no police and lots of terrible substances available!) that we are already almost comatose.
Well, except for one small nagging worry that keeps us slightly stressed. We have realised that Davie does not in fact exist. Now anyone reading our blog may already be aware of this unsurprising fact and in have wondered why we kept going on about having a holiday with 'Davie.' You talked amongst yourselves about the strangeness of two people having the same imaginary friend, but shrugged it off as harmless and faintly amusing.
Well, we have finally woken up. We have been on a wild goose chase, and have used this as an adventure on which to base our holiday. In our wild imaginings, Davie is in fact here on this island - has been for a few days. We arrived yesterday evening and fantasised an email from him saying he'd be around a certain area, and we waited, and waited...and waited. And then we wilted and went to find the place where he was staying.
Now, all of the beach bungalows are along this 300 metre stretch, and we had 'thought' that Davie had said he would be in one particular one, Nusa Tiga, at the end of the beach. OK. We started walking, and walking, and at 10:30pm, after climbing over rocks, going up goat paths and becoming increasingly bewildered, we stumbled across the place (about 5 kilometres away from everywhere else) and found it ominously quiet - we started whisper/shouting 'Davieeeeee' until someone came out of their bungalow and told us he was on the beach with Asta. We high-fived - we had done it! We went to the beach......
Of course, no Davie (but you knew that didn't you?). We trekked back, Matthew stumbling over every rock and Tash cursing curses she has never used before.
We have had to come to the conclusion - Davie just does not exist. We will now go on to enjoy the rest of our holiday in glorious relief and relaxation.
