dreamy bintan

i promised jx i wld blog abt our bintan trip and attempt to revive my already dead blog. so here goes.

day -1 (wed)
i was frantically still in offce trying to tie up loose ends from all the work related issues. she has to come down after my golf class & accompany me to finish my tasks. in the end was replying emails etc till abt 11pm! yet she didnt complain 1 bit (at least i didnt hear ;) ) lucky we bought some supplies prior to our departure to bintan as our research shown that the prices there are exorbitant & insane, which can range from S$15 -$50 per person for a meal.

for the great foresight & patience shown: 1 point

day 0

everything was great, nicely all packed up, dad gave us a lift to tmft, havent stepped there for ages & it was quite pleasant, way better than JB's customs. the procedure was pretty smooth except for few ang mohs who apparently mastered the kiasu-ism from the master singaporeans. they started queueing, shoving way before the gate is even open. no wonder even mm lee mentioned abt decline in courtesty & manners for ang mohs. but lucky im big size, so no 1 dared to bully & push me ard. and also, i gt a gf who has justice-bao-lookalike-face, + a mean diao, so no1 dare to bully us while boarding Aria Gupala (Cool name for a vessel hor)..

wa la. an hr later and we reached bintan's ferry terminal. nice clean polite. enff said. the rooms & beach are way above our expectations (tks to xx, i tot ours is realli terrible)

for the garang attitude & menacing face: 1 point

day 1 & 2
spent most our days lazing ard by the beach, drinking overpriced bintan beer, bobbling in the seas.. simple short sweet.

for the artistic photos taken & applying sunblock for me: 1 point


so the verdict, the short getaway trip was gd, with the sun sea sand, but the one that scored that most is not sun, sea, stars & sand or anything else. haha but its u. beautiful.

see pics:

bintan beer, overpriced at s$5, but still a joy when u consume unde the blazing afternoon sun
