Our short weekend getaway... ^^

Hi Peeps, I know I've been MIA for quite sometime and leaving my blog to rot and my tagboard is dying too. I wonder if anyone is still reading this blog. Hahaha!

And so, on labour day, we went on a short getaway to BATAMMMMM.. with tiffy,norris and alex's family..
Everything was kind of hectic at harbourfront because we have to wait for this, wait for that.. But after awhile, all was well.... The ferry ride to batam via Penguin was quite long too... hmmmm.. Perhaps the Penguin travels more slowly.. LOL. :)

norris enjoying his subway breakfast.
but it seems like tiffy is enjoying it more.... :)
he says he looked like ah wu ... -.-
us waiting to board the ferry.

samantha and her mum.


And arrival at Batam Centre. There were temperature scannings going on due to the Swine flu.. And we headed off to our hotel via cab.. Some cab drivers are really dishonest. In the first place, they say they are charging like 450000rupiah for our trip, ended up.. They want to collect 10sgd or 500000!! -.-

baby going to stay for 2months there with all those luggage..






Arrival at the hotel, while waiting to check in, we wandered around the place and I love the aquarium by the lobby! ^^ I love the seahorse inside but I think its very lonely coz he is the only one inside..... :(








After settling down and some camwhoring.. We headed out for lunch and shopping! Because we saw BCS mall while on the way in, so we thought is actually "walkable" from our hotel. WE WERE WRONG! Especially in that freaking hot weather.. And we kena conned by another cab driver. NB. Because we're sick of walking, we decided to hail a cab and we asked how much is it to go BCS, without a doubt, he said 20000rupiah which is equal to 2sgd.. So we're like.. OK. And within like 10secs, BCS was right in front of our eyes.. -.- So much for walking.










my fav empek empek!

baby's fried rice.


And we headed to TimeZone for some cheap arcade games and bumper car delight! ^^ After which, baby and norris went to play PS game for like 50cents per hour. While me and tiffy went for mani and pedicure which is like.... 13sgd? Classic ok? hahahaa.... With this price, you can only get like express mani in sg..













And headed to supermarket to buy cheap beers and some titbits for the night....





And for dinner, we headed to Windsor for some seafood delight~ ^^ We had like 5 dishes for only like 22sgd.. CHEAP CHEAP CHEAAAAPPPPP!!






















And back to hotel for more slacking and 30days of night... Now I realised, Dark chocolates is my relaxant and helps me to sleep.. Because after having 2, I was nodding my head to sleep already.. Hahaha!! ^^








Day 2

Good morning world! ^^
Say hello to my naked face without any edits at all. I looks horribleee... o.o



Washed up and headed down for our buffet breakfast and after that, headed to the hotel's swimming pool for a swim. Couldn't get a tan because there wasn't any sun. :(
Kind of disppointed, so headed to Nagoya earlier to do some shopping and massage... ^^





















'First Stop, A&W for lunch. I couldn't eat due to the heavy breakfast so I just settle for some curly fries... :))
Sooooo GOOOD!












Some shopping and wandering around and we went to ESKA for massage and spa... ^^

















After massage was off to Matahari for toiletries shopping! Tiffy and I practically bought alot of pads back because they're like half price there la! Hahaha... While bb and Norris bought alot of Instant noodles back... HOHO.

We're happy buyers! ^^






normally, ppl take photos of their buys of clothes etc, we took pictures of instant noodles, pads and keropok.... LOL.

And due to some hiddcups in meeting up for dinner etc, we headed to Windsor for dinner again. But all was well because Tiffy and I got to eat our Pig's blood!!! And seafood dinner again... ^^
