Batam Indonesia Trip (Part 1)

Batam is an island and city in Riau Islands Province of Indonesia, known for its free trade zone area as part of the Sijori Growth Triangle, is located 20 km (12.5 miles) off Singapore's south coast. The 715 km² (276 miles²) island has a population of 965,062 (Jun 2009).[1].

The official language on the island is Indonesian, but due to the sizeable Chinese population, Chinese languages including Teochew, Hokkien and Mandarin are also spoken.


We were so hungry that we need to take breakfast before boarding the ferry.


Now off to the ferry boat. Yes! Batam here we coooome!






Cool and happy faces aboard!













Wrong port of arrival. We weren't supposed to alight in here.
But good thing, Harris hotel staff was kind enough to fetch us and safely
send us off to their hotel which is just 15mins away from Kedatungan.

Sunrise at Boonlay MRT (Singapore)

Long weekend is over. Sigh.
Thanks for this sunrise.
It makes me hopeful for another set of long weekend holidays soon!

lolx!

Good morning peepz!

Skyride and Luge at Sentosa, Singapore

I told you. Once is really Not enough!
Sentosa's skyride and luge, here we come (again)!




Step back as we are getting ready for an exciting ride unto the next side.




The seats were not made to accomodate you.
You gotta be quick and alert in stepping unto the platform and wait for the moving wheel of seats to fetch you.
Hop unto the seat real quick and experience one of the best rides in town!





That's our queue!







The ride!

Watch out for tower 2. Say cheese for the camera. It will cost you $10 for the print out.









It gets a little scary when you're at the top.







Thoughts like, ' hooh boy! What if we fall! What if the cables are unstable????"

Yeah. Scary. But we won't let it spoil our way.
Seeing the awesome sceneries below us took our fears away!





I love this part- The Luge ride!!

Don't forget the helmets!

While at the queue.
Here we gooooooo!






See you soon for the next ride!
