3rd and 4th December - Bintan holiday

The trip was like a dream.. A dream that didnt last long enough.. 2 days only! Where got enough?!

I tell you.. 3 girls going on an overseas trip together is really a crazy affair. Without guys around.. well.. I think girls behave really differently.. For example, the amount and the way we laugh and gossip is a totally different level altogether.. hahaa.. Its just something i term 'girl crazy'.

2 days, although not enough of enjoyment.. it was certainly enough for many amazing events to take place...

The BEST thing that happened to us was that we were punctual in checking in to the hotel. zhe mo shuo leh... hmm.. Well, we reached the counter at 2.55pm.. check in time is 3pm.. so we asked and waited.. they say haven ready.. so we waited again.. until 3.15pm. Then the miracle happened. Probably it was the look of our faces.. 3 pretty ladies looking hot, sweaty and tired.. so poor thing rite.. yar.. So the receptionist said the nicest sentence in our whole trip - "Very sorry miss, your room is still not ready, but we will give you a free upgrade to a suite, follow me this way please..."

Difference btw a suite and a normal room:
- size of suite x2 of normal room... and it includes...
- a living room with super big sofa
- a balcony that faces the swimming pool and the beach
- a super big four-poster bed
- a beautiful dressing table
- a very big bathroom with a bathtub
And many more....
AND ITS FREE UPGRADE.
A quick calculation will show that we have saved at least 200 bucks. =)

Miracles continued to happen during the trip... i can say we were really 3 lucky gals...

For dinner on the first night we only had 2 vouchers for 2 set dinners.. becos our room is a twin room... So we had to share by passing the food around... Imagine the scene, its just like the game 'Pass the parcel' minus the music.. So there was 2 bowls of soup and we pass it around among 3 people.. Pass several rounds before we finished it... The chef must have found it real amusing and perhaps took pity on us? When we ordered our desserts he told us he will give us an extra piece of cake so that we dun have to pass them around again. Hahaha.. just like that.. we didnt even have to switch on our charms... =P

Next morning for breakfast.. well same as before la.. 2 vouchers for 2 person lor.. Hehe.. but end up all 3 of us got free breakfast.. This was wad happened... The breakfast was buffet style.. so we entered the restaurant and gave the 2 vouchers and they let us in.. surprised that they never asked us about the third person having to pay... so we ate and ate and ate.. it was a huge spread of food lor.. got Western, Chinese, Malay, and even Japanese food.. so after finish eating we approached the counter and wanted to pay.. BUT, the cashier actually say we that since we gave them 3 vouchers we no need to pay anything.. HAHA... I know we should be hao hai zi.. haha.. but sorry la.. we just walked out. Hahahaha... Its they too blur lor. Not our fault. =P

Above all i must say.. the hotel staff all gave very good service.. all very polite and really trying their very best with speaking English..
Thanks to Nirwana Resorts for making our trip such a wonderful one. =)
