La Dolce Vita YooHOO! Yep, this post is all about the-sweet-life because we have been slogging too hard. So we need some repair work to recharge our batteries! I know! I know! Some of you gonna remind me of my KK trip last month, but that was last month... ... *looks at you with pitiful eyes. LOL. Anyway, I'll recommend this to those of you who do not have the time to travel yet, wants a short getaway with minimal effort! Don't even need to plan or change currency. WHeee! Here we go! Where wanderlust leads! Checkpoint 1: Harbourfront Ferry Counter - Buy Ferry Ticket Alritey, that also calls for some breakfast before you go onboard unless you want to packet your food and eat in the ferry. Escape the hustle bustle of the city! Relax as the breeze swept off your stress! But as soon as we look at the rear of the ferry... ... POLLUTION !!! Approximately 1 hour plus of unobstructued seaview before we reach our destination. Checkpoint 3: Batam Centre Ferry Terminal The beginning of our 8 hours recharge adventure! Here you can find Polo tees (but I am not sure if they are simailar to the ones at shopping malls), get your coffee and toast, local tibits, toilet stop and transport. You will find that some massage/spa operators offers pick up services to chauffer you to and from the ferry terminal at no cost! Here's some of the local sights as we are being chauffered to our destination. We did our spa at this place. But personally, I prefer this in terms of service and the overall experience (i.e personal tv as they shampoo your hair... ...) (If you aren't staying overnight in Batam, you can try to book your spa package from the links which I have provided. Both operators provides pick up services from the ferry terminal and send you to your next destination too) Checkpoint 4: Food After all the pampering, our stomach were growling like crazy. But we only have 30 minutes to our manicure and pedicure sessions. This calls for some local delights at the immediate neighbourhood. AYAM PENYET! - Not fogetting the in-between waffle ice-cream and curly fries from A&W. After all the "repairing" work, we were late for our ferry ride! Luckily, we managed to change our scheduled timing to the next ferry.. ... which is the last ferry of the day! RECHARGED & ENERGISED. Labels: Holiday 10:34 PM
