27-28 March 2016 - 2D1N

First time going batam on a long weekend trip with 2 newbies. (Laurel and Hardy)

Departed Harborfront to Haborbay at 1150 and arrived on schedule. Batam Fast was only 50% capacity.
The great thing about it is you can smoke in the sundeck.

Cleared Indo custom in 10mins and bought our necessities at the convenience store and also changed our money at the money charger outside the terminal at 9500.

Next our booked ' unreliable' driver drove us to our hotel called GGi which is just across Harborbay. The hotel was $73 per night which is rather expensive.

Upon arrival we realised the rooms were not ready.. We were told to come back at 3pm to checkin..

So we hopped onto the car and headed to Meximo for wantan mee.

Laurel and Hardy were rather surprised that the noodles tasted so good and yet afforded. Laurel even commented he could retire in Batam.

Total cost of 3 bowl of noodles and 3 drinks were 62,000.

Next it was shopping time.
First stop, Permata. Stocks were low and I guess all booked for the long weekend.
Second stop, Happy 8. Greeted by the blackfaced mami and the stock were much better this time.
Girls were ranging from 1.2 - 1.5 juta...
Laurel picked one at 1.2 juta and Hardy at 1.3 juta.
Mami only allow to give Laurel a discount of 100,000.

Lastly, we headed for New Berry to find my regular cewek.
Upon arrival was told she had been booked by someone at 850,000. Her usual price was 600,000. Guess super long weekend, prices have increased.

Looking around, saw one that had eye comtact with me and booked her for 1.2 juta which I later regretted it big time.
