1 Day Trip ~ Batam

This Batam Trip is kinda last min thingy.. haha.. We went with a bunch of good friends & of course Benson is tagging along since he has recover from the nasty HFMD... So is time for him to break free from home & head out for some fun.. Our Ferry time is 8plus... But! I miss that ferry because we are eating Mac breakfast... At first we went to Mos Burger for breakfast but realise that it doesn't fill our tummy... The serving is quite small.. So we decided to go for second round breakfast which is Mac... Haha.. That's the reason we miss our ferry...! But luckily there is one more ferry which is at 920am... Haha... So to avoid making the same mistake again... We went to Q up for check in...

Waiting for breakfast..

After that we went to those factory outlet... end up didn't buy anything... haha.. Me, Benson & one of the gf stayed in the car blowing air con.. Because Benson fell asleep on our way there... phew... he was so cranky when he wanna nap & he don't nap... finally he give up & close his eyes...

Night came.. & we had a good bath in the hotel first.. Change clothes then head out for dinner.. There is one outdoor food court just beside the hotel that we are staying... I was so surprise that it was huge! very big space.. with lots of stall... & there is live singing on stage.. & also some local Bingo game... Luckily night time there is wind blowing & everywhere start to cool down.. We ate lots of food... Haha... Got sambal stingray, porridge, prawn noodle, BBQ chicken wing, clayfish... & many other... Hotel is suppose to eat eat & eat...! So i didn't care much about putting on weight too... haha...

After all with a very very full tummy! We went to our fav spot.. Guess! Which is the Supermarket! Haha.. So auntie la.. But most of the item is super super cheap.. So we really stock up.. Some woman stuff.. Which we really buy alot... Maggie! One box of them which has 40 packs! Haha.. but we share among the 3 of us... haha... & many other stuff & we start to wonder how are we going bring all this back to sg... haha.. so we bought a recycle bag to dump all inside & carry...

 

Last trip will be massage in Hotel spa for the ladies.. too bad they only can take in 2... very nice of Yvonne to give me her slot.. & of course i feel bad about it.. Anyway since she insist.. i just go along... All the guys are in one room watching soccer & be baby sitter for Benson... LOL...
