Batam .......

After the last Genting trip to celebrate our 1 yr aniversary... we went for a 1 night trip across the sea to Batam Island for my birthday!!... I know it is another long wait for my Batam photos.. hahaha... sorry guys...here are the photos....

 
 
Me and darling on the ferry waiting to set off to Batam Island.. even though we boarded the ferry quite late, luckily we still manage to get the open deck seats.. yiippesss... sea breeze and the sun.. here we go
 
Out at sea... cooling man
 
Arrival at Batam Island, this photo was taken at the only restaurant at KTM Resort where we were staying for the night
 
Our beachfront villa.. very pretty and nice considering I always love such wooden chalet style accommodation..
 
However the weather wasnt quite good when we arrived though... huge storm coming our way.. look at how dull and angry the sky is... dark and gloomy welcome to Batam..
 
After the storm, we setted out for a exploration walk to check out neighbouring areas... but our camera got all misted up due to the aircon in the room.. just like when we were in Genting.. hehe
 
The backside of our chalet... there is this wooden bridge walkway to the front door.. so cooll....
 
Huge Kwan Yin statue overlooking the sea right in the middle of the resort
 
The sea behind me
 
Beautiful landscape.. how can me and dar not take a picture together..
 
 
 
Marking Christina and Rikk offical arrival as a pair at KTM Resort... we have been here / there before!!
 
You see my chalet on slits? The first one from the left... hehe...the next time we wan to get the family style villa on the top... hahaha
 
Oh.. we just love the sea.....
 
Us and Kwan Yin Godness
 
 
 
We can actually see the night landscape of SIngapore from our chalet / villa (whatever you call it)... and we tried to take many many photos of the beautiful scenary but all photos turned out to be a failure so we turned the camera and shot ourselves instead.. waahhaah turned out quite nice le... hahaha
 
 
 
 
Oh you see the rows of chalets right in front.. those are actually the spas villas.. i went for one of their massages.. they are super good you know.. and becoz of its good location on the rocks, you hear the sounds of natural waves splashing on the rocks.. not from CDS anymore.... beautiful... so beautiful you wont want to doze off and miss the entire experience...and I took some artistic photos that turned out really nicely blue... woah.. I am so proud of my photo taking skills...
 
 
 
 
 
 
Ok last photos at KTM Resort before check out and bye to Batam
 

Ok that is all for photos... missed out on quite alot of details actually... like the spas people, the good view from the spa villa, the nice food that we ate.... never mind la... i got my previous memories...

After we checked out, we went for a one day tour around Batam, shopping and shopping only loh.. quite boring.. nothing much to buy also really... the original POLO tees are real cheap but becoz me and dar both soo small size, very hard to find the correct size so we gave up looking.. ended up buying a packet of crackers back to SG.. damn cheapo sia.. as if Singapore cannot find...
