after settling down in our room.. we went to the beach! BUT.. the tide was low and we can't do much.. so the guy named "Boxy" suggested that we come back at about 2pm..
We went around to explore the resort..and also went ahead to book our SPA.. and.. we also made our cab bookings.. I tell you..next time if you all are in BATAM, please call EMI at +628127714837 . 随传随到！There was once when he couldn't make it, he got someone else to stand in for him.. very responsible... and reasonable price too! cheaper than calling a cab from hotel~
we have 2 more hours to 2pm.. decided to eat! hee~ went to the restaurant..and ordered 2 big sandwiches, pasta and laksa! it was sooooo good! delicious lunch! didn't expect the food to be so nice here..hee~ after lunch.. felt sleepy..erm, decided to take a short nap... and ya, we overslept! it's a very very very lazy trip i tell ya! we woke up at 330pm can! by the time we hit the beach, it was already 4pm.. and our Emi-cabby is picking us up at 545pm to Golden Prawn for dinner..
WE're SLEEPING WAY TOO MUCH.. wellie, supposed to be a relaxing holiday.. nice~!
So, we did kayaking.. for about 20mins..haha.. Eileen and I rowed first..then Iris took over me.. we kayaked within the lagoon.. while waiting for our Banana Boat to be ready. Pulled by a motor boat, we sat on the banana look-alike float..3 of us.. out into the sea.. so scary.. it was so fast.. we asked for "normal" speed at first..then decided to go "extreme".. and all of us got thrown off the banana.. we were wearing life jackets of course.. we all gulped down a mouthful of sea water! was damn fun and we were laughing and screaming away!
Got up the float and went on for the ride.. the sea was choppy.. and the motor boat went really fast.. very thrilling! finally, we were flung into the sea again..this time, nearer the shore.. then, we were told to swim back ourselves *argh* it was fun though.. and since we were all so "salty", decided to dip ourselves into the pool.. for 10 mins only.. coz Emi-cabby's coming.. and we need to wash up!
We were 5 mins late, but EMI waited and greeted us with a smiley face! The journey to Golden Prawn took us about 45mins.. well, we chatted throughout the whole journey! ya.. discussing about the living conditions in Batam.. and how fortunate we really are to be able to live in Singapore.. really~
Reached Golden Prawn at about 645pm. It's a very very big place.. enough to accomodate hundreds.. it's like a kelong..and we started to order food.. and we ordered ALOT! while waiting for food....
then our juices arrived.. Eileen and Iris ordered coconut..while i ordered green apple juice.. freshly squeezed! our TUB of rice came too.. compare the size of coconut to the red tub........
see! the size of the coconut is comparable to the rice tub! and.. there's alot of mozzies... *sobz* Eileen and I got bitten... blood type : A+ ......... still waiting for food to come........... 
we have free crackers too.. to munch on before food arrives.. we ordered chilli crab, baby kailan, lala, steam fish and butter prawns.. 
the chilli crabs's gravy's SOoOooO NICE! not too hot..just nice for Iris! and the steam fish's so fresh can! all so fresh! especially the fish! think Iris finished 3/4 of the fish by herself! haha~
a little too much for the 3 of us to finish.. but we managed to lick the plates clean! we drank a total of 2 coconut and 5 fruits juices! and..a plate of mangoes for dessert.. it's DAMN good~ awwww...
we ordered 2 glasses of juices to fill up Iris's water bottle..and brought it back to hotel.. EMI's waiting for us.. so.. we headed back to our hotel.. our journey back was a 'quiet' one.. we're so bloated and tired.. and all we did was eat and sleep.. and like only 1 hour out in the sun... haha~
washed up.. changed into our pyjamas..and we're all hyped up again! started to take photos in our PJ.. we'll leave that to.... Batam- Part 3!
