Batam, Indonesia tour
--------------------------
u know.. when year-end coming, u got tons of leave to clear, what u gonna do?
a planned vacation?
a faraway place?
a nice holiday with yr family?
a good rest or a short trip out of Singapore?
1 of my colleagues thought of organize a trip to Vietnam but alas, most of the favourite destination are just out of reach... why?
fully booked - is the common answer given
OR the price is just double!
month-end = year-end financial year closing too, hence... how to take long leave over the x'mas and new year period?
pathetic right?
so what will u do when u're clearing leave n stay home doing nothing?
shop, shop & shop... boring?
sleep, sleep & sleep... interesting?
argh... so again, Batam 1 day tour
this is our 2nd time going Batam...with my colleagues
1st time is via a 1 day tour.. many places to go but not much time to shop around
this time, just a few dedicated place.. eat, shop n relax...
but also a rainy days.. damn it!
lately rain, rain & rain.. it really dented our holiday mood
flooded everywhere in SG & M'sia
A&W
interesting fast food restaurant... no longer available in SG
the root beer still taste good even a bit bland there
Golden Prawn Restaurant
quite cheap but the prawn are sickeningly small
only the replica is huge...
