~%~%~%~ Bintan with Candice ~%~%~%~



Candice chanced upon an irresistable offer and off we went to Bintan!! =) Juz to show how ulu i am, yar, i didn't know tt Bintan was juz 1hour ferry ride away.. lolz. But it was a quick escape frm Singapore.. Best of all, we got to play with the new high-tech, biometric passport processors! damn fun!! you stick your pass port in, tt opens one gate; then you stick your clean thumb on the bio-sensor and it scans your thumbprint! hahaha. the last time i used my thumbprint for anything is the old POSB account book.. or was it to make IC.. hmm.

Anywayz, we caught the earliest ferry available to max time at Bintan and slpt all the way there cos we both slpt late to do last min packin =p but the view was realli nice.. - see first pic- does it look like the heavens were blessing those ships? 2nd pic is us on the ferry..

Bintan's beach at the resort was breathtaking!! the 2 of us dragged those chairs to way out into the beach near the water to suntan... but the sun not v cooperative.. didn't realli shine much. hahaha. but it was still very relaxing... the waves lapping at the beach- the sound was incredibly soothing... and the sand at the beach was sooo soft beneath your feet. I sneaked off to the beach in the morning (lazy candice was still in bed) and the sun rise at the beach was gorgous. It was low tide, so you cld walk to where water once was. And there were millions of sand crabs and their little holes!! you know they're there cos of the little sand balls ard their little holes.. and if you stay realli still, you can catch them in action as they come out of their holes to deposit sand balls or juz to stay there and glare at you. haha. And i tried to chase the sun's reflection.. you know, stand on the reflection on the sun on the slivery waves. Try it sometime =)

As almost everything was expensive, we spent some time entertaining ourselves. Here's a sample of the pictures we took =p *Candice is gona kill me, cos i didn't ask for permit to post... but heck =p * And as even food was expensive, we ate only 1 meal~ dinner! and we took a damn long time to choose... but luckily candice made a wise choice for us! - $14 for that meal you see at the 3rd row, 1st pic. It was filling (we both cldn't finish our portions) and it was delicious! Morning, we utilized the free buffet breakfast which came with the room to the max! lolz.. the next time we come, we're bringing instant noodles...

As it was super ex to leave the resort ($75 for a cab ride, hello? no way..) we did wad we could in the resort- snorkeling, jet skiing, kayating, swimming,etc. Loved jet skiing (blew a hole in the pocket..) the spray of salty sea, the speed and control over your own jet ski, etc. liberating and exhilerating!! hahaha. Also played pool for the first time in years, and went to the resort bar at night.. althou it's relatively not happening, they're generous with their alcohol! so it's value for money to drink in Bintan, but not to eat =)

Was pretty exhasted when we left Bintan... but before we set back to Singapore, one more indulgence! - Haagen Daz icecream at the ferry point while waiting to check in.. great way to conclude the trip! Had the bobbing feeling of the waves in me till i fell aslp at night... Glad and lucky to have you, gal. Hope you had fun too!! =) Let's do this again.. =p
