Bintan Lagoon 17-18Jun


17号早上 6 点,我和老公摸黑起床。
6:45分 到家对面的咖啡店吃早餐。我因为怕晕船,我只吃了点粥。
7:10分我们到楼下达德士。天不作美,一到楼下就下起倾盆大雨。
我们两个乘着一个小小的情人伞, 在雨中等德士。。浪漫不起来。

我一路都不敢打瞌睡。。老公却早已入梦乡。。
20 分钟后我们就抵达了坍娜美拉码头。应为时间还早,我和朋友们
决定到 咖啡厅里喝喝咖啡,打发时间。当所有人都到齐后,我们便
过关口上船啦!

到了船上,我选了一个中间第一排的坐位。。 曾经坐过船两边的位子。。
晕得很, 所以未免再受苦,我已经学聪明了!那晕船药还真管用,
我一上船就倒头大睡。。不知过了多久,我们就来到了目的地。


心情是愉快的,其庆幸自己已回到陆地!我曾经到过滨丹岛。。
可是怎么连码头也变了样?后来才知道,原来滨丹岛不只一个码头啦!
真是不见多怪!我们在码头慌了一阵,拍了些照片。。
就上了专车来到了度假村。 一下车,舞蹈人员就敲起了大鼓,跳舞迎接
我们。。 似乎有点受宠若惊!真是华丽的开场。



到了柜台才发现我们要下午两点才可以 check- in. 我们别墅还有人住着。
当时的时间是早上10点左右,我们在度假村里到处逛逛。。拍拍照。
美景都看够以后,我们决定到度假村外逛逛。。



上了一辆巴士,到了一个叫 pasar ole ole 的小市集。。 真的很小哦。。
也没事们看头。。 就是卖了很多的冒牌名牌包包, 有 LV 啦,有gucci
还有 burberry。当然还有就是当地的木质雕刻手工艺品。。好精致,
不过价钱也不菲。 我真的买不起!还有就是 batik 的 sarong 
裙还有衣服。。


忘了告诉你,Bintan Lagoon 度假村是新加坡商人开的。。 所有
消费已新币计算。。 新加坡人也无需换印尼币。。 因为所有交易都可
用新币。 用新币就不好了!东西都卖的很贵! 有些地方一罐可乐要
$4!!晕~


我们在那里的一间小餐馆吃了简单的午餐。 我们叫了些炒饭,三文治,
鸡翅膀, 噢嗒,还有一些饮料。价钱还算合理。与新加坡的价钱类似。。
老天爷真是玩笑开大了。。 我们出门,雨就来袭。。 老公说我们不愧
是 “苍蝇"(福建话), 也就是 “雨神”。 到哪都下雨!!真是天不
留人, 雨留人,我们只好在餐馆内躲雨,又叫了几杯饮料。。盼望雨赶
快停! 过后,快到时间上车了,雨还是一直下。。我们四人
只靠我一只小雨伞。。 还是淋了一身湿!

回到度假村,以是下午1点钟,还是没法check-in。
又到处看看,发现了一间蛋糕点。。 决定吃点点心, 喝喝下午茶!
我们就这样喝喝茶,谈谈天享受着片刻的悠闲。。



终于等到 check-in, 一辆 6 人座的 golf buggy 把我们送到了
我们的别墅。B27! 一间两层楼的大洋房。有四个客房,7个床位,
三间厕所, 一个大客厅,饭厅,还有一个设备齐全的小厨房。。洋房外的
小花园里有一个8 人大卓,还有个 BBQ PIT. 想知道有多漂亮,
就要看看我的相片哦!



当然我们也有一辆专用的4 人座 buggy.



在洋房里休息了一阵,我们 3 人就到 SPA 去了。。 留下可怜的 
“小狗” 看家!我们一早来到的时候就已经到 SPA 那里定了按摩服务。
现在我 开着 buggy! 对!是我在开哦!好好玩哦。。 终于有机会开
“车” 了。。 虽然我有驾照,可是平时老公就是不放心让我开他的车!!
这次我可要 霸占司机的位置!开着 buggy 来到了 taman seri SPA. 



按摩过后,我陪老公到楼下的咖啡座喝咖啡。按摩还不错,老公按不到
几下就呼呼大睡。这样应该很舒服吧!

喝了咖啡。 我便回别墅接朋友到沙滩去。黄昏的沙滩感觉分外宁静。
情侣们坐在高高的岩石上。。 欣赏着美丽的夕阳。。一群小孩子们还
在浅滩嬉戏。。 我们沿着沙滩走着。。 看到了一些户外按摩厅。。
还有一间 餐馆。 餐馆外点着美丽的火把。。 
把整个户外用餐处变的好浪漫。


因为那里的收费不菲,我们决定还是回 main lobby 那的餐厅吃自
助餐。 说也奇怪,当我们亮起 DBS 信用卡付账的时候。。 才知道
原来有30% 的折扣。。。 哈哈。。 折扣后一人还要。。 
$28+ 还真是贵!!

饭后我们就回洋房准备开台!完麻将!我带了一服旅游装的小麻将!
共我们饭后的娱乐消遣! 我们就这样打到。。 凌晨3点!2 家大赢
2 家大输!



各天八点起来,到 lobby 的餐厅吃免费自助早餐!菜色丰富。。
有中,西式早餐,还有道地的印尼式早餐。 

过后吃的太饱,我们决定去沙滩散散步。。 运动一下。。 我们赤脚
在浅滩上游荡。。享受着那睬在脚下,系柔的沙子。。 冰凉的海水打
在脚上。。 乌云密布!突然又下起大雨!! 我们措手不及。。 
被淋得像落汤鸡! 我狼狈的开车回到洋房。。大家都冲去洗澡!

大家梳洗过后又玩了几句麻将。。 为了省钱,我们带了一些快熟面当
午餐! 吃完午餐我们便收拾行李准备12点 check out. 离5点的船
还有一点时间。 我们到了小游泳池那喝茶。。 老公还有“小狗” 
到游泳池泡水!过后我和“小狗”  大了一阵乒乓球。。累死我了!


过后我们就搭车去码头上船了!我又是倒头大睡。。 哈哈。。
到了新加坡。。我和老公花了好久的时间等德士。。 弄到9点才到家!!

就这样结束了我的滨丹岛之行! 别忘了看我的照片哦!

Retail Therapy-GSS

The great singapore sale is now ON!

The other day, I went mid-night shopping with my hubby at City Hall.
G2000 really have some great bargins! Beside 30-40% discount,
it has an additional 15% discount on the total bill!

Hubby plunder 3 shirts and one tie.Total bill comes up to about 130+.
Which was cheap cos 2 of the shirts are actually $69 before discount.

That day.. i made a mistake by buying an item that is not on sale!
a 150+ corset tube by coast haiz.. (let's not talk about it anymore).. ~$~

Anyway I went for the real retail therapy last monday(12th)
Took leave and went out with a gerfriend. Well hubby is too IMPT for
this sort of little important things. Therefore he refuse to take leave at all.

Anway I am glad that he didn't came along for he might just stop me
from buying some of these things! :P

We started by pigging out at fei cui noodle house at scotts foodcourt.

After some delicious ramen, we decided to start with our first stop
TANGS! bought a pair of shoes that initially cost 19.90 but after
using my friend's tangs card with 6% rebate and some cash rebate
I only paid my friend $18! What a steal! That a good part when you
are shopping with ger friends is that we gather our shopping cards
together and are invincible during SALE times. Sale + card discount!
Save even more!Waaahhhaa.. POWER to the gers! What more,
my friend has, tangs , metro, robinson, isetan card.. all major cards
of orchard road! My friend bought a belt and we jump store!

But wait.. there is a promotion going on at the front door of tangs.
It's the watch i have been waiting for! I have been looking high and
low for this watch for a month now since it has been published on
herworld magazine. It's the NIKE MERGE WATCH LAUNCH!
After trying out various colours, I still feel that this color suits me
best. Lets take a look here. Isn't it delicious!


After hopping with joy for a moment, we decide to step into Paragon and metro. I didn't like any of the shoes and bags although everything is 20% less. I went to the clothes section and spotted my favourite gown!

Yes the monsoon gown that i tried previously. I simply love the design but it fails to come in my size the other time. I went to try the dress again in my size and YES it has a 30% discount now.. after discount it only cost 202, save around $80. I had to buy it.. cos metro slogon say i am in a buy it anyway kinda mood ahaha. And my fren said it look nice on me.. It's a bustier dress with empire cut. Pretty embroidery and beads.

Okie if you have not notice, metro shopping bags now comes with slogons , one i pretty much like. It says " I am in a might not use it, might not wear it, but buy it anyway kinda mood". Metro really knows how a women thinks hur~ hehe

After the very much heartache ~$~. I suggested that we go for a short coffee break. Went to bakerzin for some sweet deserts. My friend ordered a Chocolate souffle and i ordered a NY cheese cake. oo Sooo Sinful~

Just then one of our guy friend sms us saying that he would like to
join us for shopping. We tease our friend saying that we are shopping
now and he is working! He said he thought we are shopping at night!
We ask him to join us for dinner and shopping later. Erm provided
dinner is on him. However he didnt seem to catch that.. ahah.

We hopped over to Taka later checking out the shoes and bags.
Didn't see anything we like and we went to have some drinks at
Mos burgers and waited for our friend to arrive.

We decided to have dinner at the coffee club upstairs. My guy
friend was showing off his new digital camera, the new ixus 800.
Ok, It told him to buy that during the PC show. It was heavier
and fatter then my ixus i. But has better features. However i
think it is still not possible to bring it around in his pocket.
I think it still makes his pants' pocket bulge! He wants to shop
for a camera bag later.

So we had our dinner. I orderd my favourite mushroom swiss
melt. Yum~ Hubby also came to join us for dinner a while later.
We talk about our coming Bintan trip and we are all looking
forward to it. We mention that we should all go for a massage
and mahjong at night! Heee

Later hubby went to kinokuniya while my friends and I shop
around. Went to see Sanrio and found my frens camera bag
at the male section. I bought a Globe for a desk. My fengshui
master say I lack Earth element therefore I need to put some
symbolisation of earth on my table.. Hehe.. this solution is
cheap and good. The globe only cost me $26 for better luck!




Oh yes, forgot to mention I bought 3 pairs of earrings for $5!
Hehe.. until next time!
