Bintan Trip

Got back from our Bintan trip yesterday. we went on friday and reached singapore yesterday about 4 plus in the evening. great fun and i really did relax and did not even think of school work.

the itinery for that trip starts at 8.15 am. me and opit was supposed to meet ain and ju at khatib mac so that we can take a bus to tampines and then from there take another bus to tanah merah. as usual, our good friend, ju had to be late. he came at about 9. then he wanted to have breakfast first so we ended up leaving mac at around 9.30. we had to reach the terminal and check in at the counter at 10! so all 3 of us made ju pay for the taxi ride that we took. haha...

upon reaching bintan, we took a bus to mayang sari and at the lobby requested to have an early check in. we only managed to get one room so we grabbed it first and put our bags. by then most of us were famished. oh ya, ain's cousin n her partner also joined us. so we headed to nirwana hotel and have our lunch at The Coffeeshop which is actually a restaurant. ate nasi rames...very delicious!! yum....after that we walked back to our chalet. then we slept and me n opit couldn't sleep so we headed on to the beach. lounged by the beach and then went swimming. the waves were huge as compared to the ones in east coast....of course lah, hehehe.

anyway, after that, we washed up and rested for a while. then we went to the kelong to have our dinner. had to wait cos lots of people. finally ate chilli crab, prawn oats, kangkong n the other dish which i forgot...

next day, we woke up, have breakfast then took bus to Pasar Oleh Oleh. Bought some oleh-oleh for family, t-shirts and the sarong. nothing much, everything in singapore dollars so quite expensive. then, bought lunch (packed mee) and headed back to chalet where ivan is already waiting for us. they played the banana boat. at first i didn't want to swim cos my contacts getting itchy but later after the banana boat ride, they went swimming n i just can't help it. so i swam also. ain n her cuz gave up half way through the banana boat ride cos they said it's too scary....opit fell into the sea by the way....hehehehe....







after the swim, we lazed around. took photos and the boys clown around....then we bath and just talk cock while waiting for our room service. too tired to go out n eat. watched repeat telecast of singapore idol....taufik sing....aaahhhh! ivan had to leave around 7 plus cos had to catch the ferry. just the four of us...then had dinner, talked some more n went to sleep.

the next day, woke up, have breakfast, took photos and headed to the ferry....upon reaching singapore, we went to tampines, had dinner together and headed home.....



can't wait for the next holiday......
