batam fun

mel hong dg and me went for a short trip to batam today.
luckily mum called aunt and told her that we r coming, so she came to fetch us.
reached the batamfast counter in harbourfront at ard 820 as we intend to take the 930 ferry.
however, we were told that the 930 ferry is full even though the real time feed states that it is still open for booking. (what is the purpose of the real time feed on a big LCD monitor for, i wondered. i even mentioned that the colors they used are quite nice).
anyway we bought the 11am ferry and went to Mac for breakfast.

went to the batam center megamall to shop for a while and had A&W before aunt came to pick us.
i used to go to batam every year when i was young.
and i realised i had not been there for at least 8 years because aunt moved to the new home for 8 years and i had not been there before.
we went to aunt house for a while to see see.
was suppose to go for our massage when aunt suggest we go to 4th uncle new home.
a freaking big house.
we arrived to see a door at least 3-4m greeting us
every door inside is at least that high
the first floor has a mj room, a full ktv room with the latest songs and the living room has a tv thats like 60-70 inches.
the back garden is pretty big as well. however it overlook a jungle.
then we went up the spiral staircase that lead to a smaller living room. all the 4 rooms had attached toilet and even a jacuzzi in the master bedroom toilet.

aunt then send us to the massage centre.
we had a 2hrs session and it was quite painful sia.
and it costs only ard $21.
we then had a quick dinner and some POLO shopping at batam centre before catching the 730pm ferry back.

must start planning a night stay at uncle hse liao.. hahah
