Bintan 3D2N Getaway!!!

Usually when ppl thought of Bintan, first impression is the resorts and beaches. Of cos i am like everybody. Therefore when lun suggested to go Bintan we booked the ferry tickets and resort at Bintan Resort without even thinking much. We missed out something very important, or should say we did not do enough research.

There is nothing worng about going to Bintan resort, except for the price of all the water sports. The whole resort is a protected area by a contingent of "army". Inside the resort is safe and clean, just like our home SGP. Of cos you need to pay a price for that, almost everything is priced in SGD. So basically if u only go to the resort only SGD is needed.

Lun and me wanted to experience the real indonesia life thus we gave up our return ferry ticket and resort and headed for Tanjung Pinang. TP is the main town of Bintan, also a busy trading port for indonesia. The main transport here is motorbike, call Ojek. This is the 1st time i took bike other than dk and don one. Also 1st time take bike dun need helmet(302 one not counted), hahaha...
