Batam Getaway AGAIN!
Seems like we really enjoyed Batam, because we went there again after two weeks!
Haha, one of the main reasons we went there this time was because my group of 32 french guests were there. I wanted to go and take a look and also made sure that everything went well. And of course, we are just a bunch of people who really love to enjoy and relax!
So yup, Batam again! This time we didn’t stay in town. My guests were all at Batam View Resort. Batam View was really nice. We wanted to stay there too, but it was full for the weekend because of Hari Raya Holiday. Went to Turi Beach Resort. It was nice too. Batam View is more for people who want to have fun, lots of activities plus KTV and a pub, lounge. Turi Beach is really for relaxing as there is NOTHING except sea sports. But it has really nice view. The rooms were great too. Think it is more for couples. Anyway, this time we meant to go and have fun!
The first stop we went to is the BALONGLONG stop as my mum wanted to get her fave snacks! hahaha. Then we went for lunch at this indonesia restuarant which serve CHINESE food! haha…as least all of us thought that the dishes tasted CHINESE. After that, we went back to the hotel for check in. As usual with all my oversea trips, there were bound to be arguement with either the hotel or the airport. haha..And yes, we did that again! Shan’t not elaborate further 
but the result was expected 
We WON of course. HAhahaHAhaha! After that, we went for our massage at Sawadika. Was a great session. Plaza 100 was just beside and we went in and brought enough cheap food to open a mama-shop. hehe…Bobby brought us to a very nice place for dinner. I mean, its not nice, but the food was good! It’s called Windsor FoodCourt. It looked just like the food court in SuanLum Night Market in Bangkok. The food there was delicious and cheap! Check out the photos for the food! We went to explore Batam View for a couple of hours as well. There was a great magical show with FERI and then we also checked out the ESCAPE pub there.
2nd day we went for Jet Skiing after breakfast. It was so fun! DEng, Cam and me got onto one Jet Ski but as we didnt balance well, all of us fell into the sea! hahaha…it was a very funny sight. Mum said she screamed from her room’s balcony when she saw us falling into the sea. And mind you, she was like a couple hundred metre away! hahaha It was deng’s first time on a Jet SKi. Sorry for scaring you! But she soon became expert! We had a great one hour! it was $100 per hour! Then we spent a very relax afternoon in the room, eating and playing cards. Went to Batam View at night to take a look at my groups’ BBQ dinner. The BBQ dinner was great too. IT was really a tiring day and all of us fell asleep almost immediately after cleaning up!
3th day was “unusual” for us! All of us woke up before 7am to get ready because we wanted to enjoy Jet Ski one more time before coming home. It was like sooooo unusual for us as we all love to sleep so much! hahaha…This time we were greedy! We hired TWO Jet SKI for TWO HOURS! IT was fantastic! hahaha. Even mum and dad went with us (I rode slower with them of course!). Mum and I were really really LUCKY as we saw THREE DOLPHINS right in front of our Jet Ski in the middle of the sea!! ADDED BONUS!!! Two hour flied and we rushed to wash up and check out of the hotel. Wanted to go for massage but ended up with not enough time, so we went for lunch at Nagoya Mall instead before coming home.
This trip was so fun and tiring. We were all burnt and aching all over. I am STILL having muscle ache and cannot move properly
GREAT TRIP!!
