Had a great time at bintan !
Reached bintan on the first day at about 12plus. Got to check in early to the villa cos it happens that there are rooms available for us. Lucky us else we had to wait till 3pm ! :D
Rested awhile, went to have lunch at the seaside restaurant. Serves ok food at reasonable price :)
then went to play beach volley! Been years since I played beach volley haha. Played for a while before dipping at the pool. :) That's where I lost my sunglasses as well.. argh ... its quite a new pair ... Left it on the umbrella stokes of the tanning chair. When we got up from the pool, I suddenly remembered I forgot my toothbrush. So hurried to the provision shop before it closes... and alas! there goes my sunglasses..... :(
Anyway, went back to the villa to prepare dinner :) we brought some groceries so that we can cook dinner ourselves :) First dinner was beehon! Fried bee hoon. was very successful even though it is the first time I cooked that ahaha. Bee hoon with dfs beer... heavenly :D
Watched some movies... but had an early night on the first night. :D
Next morning woke up for the hotel's intercontinental breakfast. Very nice stuff they have :D Went for a dip at the swimming pool near the villa - complete with ice cold hoegarden. :D Also went to the beach for a dip :) we love the water don't we haha.
Went back for lunch ... Had mooncakes and bee hoon :D Went to kayak in the afternoon. Strange thing is the water level's not that deep even tough we were quite far out to the sea. There were many corals around with fishes :D Even saw a sea turtle! The head poped up of the water and plop! it went down. :)
Had a full day of fun under the sun before heading back to the villa :) Time to prep for dinner! spaghetti! :D After dinner we rested for awhile, watching TV before heading over to the posh Jap restaurant outside our villa :) Had sake plus chutoro. The chutoro wasn't that good but the sake's nice. Was ex too haha but well I think we are paying for the ambience. Just right on the beach with cosy settings. Nice :)
Went back to villa.. and our dear sw still wanna drink. So we finished uncle's remy martin. (didn't like it cos it tastes sucky on the rocks) haha. And those jiu gui are still not satisfied so they opened up the vodka. In actual fact, each of us need to finish about half of the bottle cos uncle dun really drink ... was quite against sw from opening up the vodka cos I needed to take ippt soon haha but well... in order not to bring back that bottle we had to. So off we go, each of us drank half of it ... and weird things started to happen to our sw haha. going to the mahjong room to pee when we stopped him just in time... doing funny acts hahah think that was the highlight of the trip lol
Anyway, the next day went for breakfast with a heavy head... din do much on the last day except waiting for the ferry to come haha. All in all was a great holiday with some good pals :) Enjoyed myself thoroughly before going back to work. :)
