Batam

Yesterday went to Batam with Darling..
Planned this quite long ago.. Bought the S$25 one person 1 day Batam City tour from the internet.. Got this cheap Deal from 'Deal.com.sg'..
There are quite a few fees not included.. So we needed to pay some PDF fee, Surcharge fee, Fuel fee and Tour guide Tips on top of the S$25 each..

Wake up very early in the morning.. (The same 5am timing for going to work, Haiz..) Meet Darling at 'Harbour Front centre' and went to get our ferry tickets from 'BatamFast Ferry Pte Ltd'..
There are a lot of people going to Batam for Weekend..

Our ride..

Reached 'Sekupang Ferry Terminal' in an hour..

The Custom officer there is very fierce.. A lot of people there queueing, so noisy lor.. He bang on the table and scold loudly.. He send someone just to catch and send people back becos people talking loudly.. Those poor noisy kids kanna send back just like that, cannot go into island.. Scary..
