Holiday to Batam

Yes, yes, yes! Of all places, we went to Batam! hehe… but its ok after all. Most important thing was that my honie was beside me. I realised that it doesnt matter where we are; doesnt matter what we do; and doesnt matter how the experience was. The best thing aUntitledbout it was him. Really.

We initially argued a lot bout the destination, plans, etc. Though we made it up, I realise now that it was just a waste of time. It was him that really mattered; and not anyone or anything else. He is such a gentleman. Cheering me up when I am not happy about something; discussions there were just all smooth as we compromised really well.  Hehe… I love him.

Well, anyways, on the 11th of July, Ahmad and I took the earlier ferry at around 2:10pm. When we reached there, we were picked up by a hired driver who drove us on a bumpy ride to the hotel. We chilled out for a bit and unpacked our stuff. Then the driver drove us to a shopping mall. Nothing much there, but we just walked around. After a bit, we had dinner. Super cheap ok! After converting, the 2 of us ate for just S$6 in total! And we ate so much!!!

The driver then sent us back to the hotel so that he can go change to a bigger van to accomodate the other 13 that would be comin later in the evening. When he got back, we went to the shopping centre opposite the ferry terminal. By the time we got there, most of the shops we already closed or starting to pack up for the day. We spent bout an hour waiting for the other 13 folks to arrive.

When all 15 of us were in attendance, we headed to the hotel, then went to have dinner for those who were starving.

Later that night, we were all just chilling in one of the guys’ room till the wee hours of the morning.

Img0671The breakfast was kindda pathetic! It was only like 4 dishes! I hardly took a lot. Made for Ahmad and myself toast. After breakfast, we chill out at our corridoor and played cards for like 3hrs! I must say, Ahmad and I together, we make a good pair when playing cards!

We then headed to our spa. One of the girls recommended it. But I Img0694just find it so-so lah… nothing fantastic about it though. While waiting for the others to finish their spa session, most of us were starving.

Called for the driver, picked us up, and headed to a restaurant named ‘Arai’. it was only 10 of us who ate there and the bill amounted to Rp600,000!!! It is ridiculous! We obviously got cheated, but we didnt dare say much as we wont know what they will do to us. So much more ex compared to the S$6 meal for 2 we had the prev night!

Some of the couples headed for a second round of massage, while the others and me headed back to the hotel. We slept like pigs! haha….

That night, we headed to a KTV. I dont sing, but it was fun watching others sing tho. We were shagged by then. Went back, and everyone bumped.

The next morning, everyone else didnt wake up, except for Ahmad, Radin and myself. We were the only 3 up for breakfast! We headed back to our rooms, packed and watch tv.

After check-out, we squeezed all our luggage in the van and headed for some last minute shopping.

Our ferry was scheduled at 5:30pm(Batam time), but 2 of the guys was scheduled at 5:20pm. The driver was late and the 2 guys missed their ferry and had to book another ferry! We were all waiting anxiously, scared that our ferry would have left too.

All in all, I had a great time with my darling, except for the last 1 hour where we were separated in the ferry.

I want to plan another holiday with him. Perhaps in October. Tioman? KL? Redang? Lets see eh…
