hello everyone, meet pretty Batam(:



just returned home last night from a wonderful short getaway to Batam. it was a 2 day 1 night trip with batam cable ski and a stay over at holiday inn waterfront with shopping trip down to the town area. everything went perfectly well! haha.

8 of us together started the day meeting at harbourfront to board the cruise - Ocean Flyte which departs at 10am. and we reached batam at 10am too! haha. because batam's time is an hour before ours. before we know it with the transport and all at 10.15am batam's time we started cable wakeboarding all the way till 6pm. hahaha. it was non-stop of fun, joy and laughter under the wonderful perfect wakeboarding weather.



as for my first time cable wakeboarding, i am glad to be able to achieve sooo much.
1) manage to dock start and start of and completeing the entire rounds by curbing the corners.
2) after like super many times, finally managed to jump start rather than dock start
3) tried wakeboarding with a slip-in slippers rather than bindings.
4) wakeskating!
5) knee boarding alone and with friends



it was super duper fun. i did practically everything that we can do at cable other than the slider and the kicker. didnt want to take the risk to injure myself. haha. but i really enjoyed knee boarding. it was super tough to control the direction and all but super fun to be sliding on water. than it was super funny when i sat with val together we kept laughing and holding on to our dear lives. lol. and first time i tried double wakeboarding where 2 person were pulled at the same time... and this time is with yoyo. so sweet. i enjoyed it especially when we were riding together and observing the pretty sunset. and and and, i really loved wakeskating! it was super duper fun! haha. riding with your bare feet on the board with totally no bindings! wwoooots.

and next we proceed to Holiday Inn - Waterfront. i believe thats the best place in the entire area so far. haha. it was a pretty pretty place and totally worth the money for the serivce and all. super relaxing. (: for all the money saved to spend on holiday is awesomely worth it. ((:

my "wonderful" view from the hotel room. lol. actually, everywhere else around the hotel looks like that.

our grandfather street.

our 1/2 a million rupiah dinner. lol!

we went shopping, eating eating and walking around everywhere too. and i finally see that Sing dollars is worth sooo much in Batam just like how US dollars is worth alot in some countries. haha.

its been super long since i had A&W! haha. loved the float! ((:

meet all pretty sunkissed babes! x) (i love this super sweet picture!)

overall, it was a relaxing and lovely holiday. no doubt its just 2 days, it made me feel super relaxed and charged for the weeks to come. haha. and it was made possible with the company of my wonderful friends and my love. (:

it was a sweet nineteen.
