My 23rd Batam Trip Summary
This trip is on 13th Dec 2015 for 3D2N (Sunday to Tuesday),its a private trip as stated on my previous postings. Work has been quite stressful due to year end and i just wish to have some Rest and Relax in Batam. I apologize for not replying to all bro's PM who asked about my Dec 2015 trip. There's more than a dozen of them and i was very tired of doing a repeat reply. (already state there wont be a date in previous postings in this thread). This part,I'm sincerely sorry about it.
I have already got a date for my upcoming Jan 2016 Newbie trip. And am drafting out an itinerary after this summary is done and after summarizing up all my 2015 summaries.
The trip as usual were based on my
Beginner's Guide for 1st Time Batam Visitor which can be found on my signature when it comes to travelling and accommodation. A friend from this forum joined and i have the honour to link up for a chit chat with a few other bros who happens to be in Batam too.
No pre-planned itinerary on this trip unlike my
last trip,i simply took each step as it comes w/o really knowing where i am heading to. Changed my IDR for 9870/SGD on the 1st day (9940/SGD on 2nd day and 9960/SGD on 3rd),head to Kaha,grab my pre-booked room and off to check in. As you can see,its a Sunday and Sunday is a Weekend,so room obviously isnt ready when we arrived in the morning. So my friend and i went up to King Massage to have a foot reflexology,just to kill off some time and at the same time allows my friend to see the Girls that were not in King Massage's massage girl album. (something not many will do here or get a chance to do so)
After the foot reflexology,my room was ready but my friend's room isnt. Its almost noon time and i am quite surprise that at that hour,the hotel was still pretty much crowded. Nevermind,we checked in one room 1st and decide to head to Instar Coffee shop for our brunch.
After brunch,it is still pretty early (for weekends),but i still persist on going "shopping". Like i say earlier,i have no plans..i just went to any joint,picked a girl and arrange for her arrival to my room at 5pm.
Next i head to the Teban Tua Pek Kong,again...its not the usual Tua Pek Kong others would go to during a cheonging trip nor can it be easily found online,hehehe...just to share a little open secret,over the last couple of months many was heard to kena 4D from this temple,hence their temple build up was pretty fast due to receiving bigger and more donation. I didnt kena 4D tho...*sob*
Its not a place that one can easily find,not all taxis knows how to get there,worse...there was no address as it is situated in them middle of nowhere. For what i know,its 2 km radius off this temple were just plain red soil,swamp and forest...
That place probably used to be a swamp or something. I have brought more than 10 bros to this place,but i doubt they will even know how to get there on their own,hehehe...walking is 101% not possible from Nagoya area. Temple is currently STILL under construction,i have been to this place no less than 5 times and each time,it gives a different sight with new things to look at and explore...
