hello people!
i've loads to share but kinda lazy though, LOL.
anyway, Club Med, Bintan was uber funnnnn.
like i love the food, the G.Os & the entire concept of the resort!
their service culture is really good.
and i can say that i truly enjoy my stay there.
before i babble on and on, shall tell you how ClubMed works.
basically everything is paid for when you sign up for the trip.
you'll be given this tag to indicate that you're member of Club Med.
and yah, that's like your passport around the village.
with it, whatever you do in Club Med is free except for spa&purchases.
yes, it means free flow of food& free flow of cocktails, wines whatever.
you'll feel like a millionaire cuz u just walk around and do what you want!
day one, took the ferry there and all.
uhm, ferry rides are not nice either, i felt nauseous.
and they send this mega bus to bring mere 7 of us to the resort.
mind you, i was feeling like crap cuz of the ferry ride.
as soon as i got off the bus, the GOs welcomed us with drinks&all.
i was a lil appalled to see so many ppl welcoming like 7 of us, LOL.
yep, and our personalised GO walked us to our rooms.
told us details about the entire village.
she sorta perked me up cuz there's like so much to do!
uhm ya, i totally recovered from the nauseous shit.
lunch at Terrace was omfg cuz i was starving.
& prolly cuz its by the beach, the view was magnificient.
took like 1hr plus to explore the entire village.
made appointments for spa, snorkelling & all.
swimming!
been donkey years since i last swam, it feels like WHOOOTS.
as usual, im starving by dinnertime.
and so we randomly walked into Waterfall thought is like some normal buffet.
boy, was i wrong.
ahem, the buffet is not like regular buffet.
every five steps you take brings you to food of different countries.
the theme for the particular night was Asian Galaxy.
i cant remember what's nice cuz everything is nice.
and im serious, EVERYTHING.
that's not because im a glutton or whatsoever.
their food is really of standard. (pictures will show.)
with a sweet tooth like mine, i will just chiong for the dessert stand.
eh, their dessert is like absolutely mouth-watering.
the mini tiramisiu, the mango mousse, the caramel brulee.
okay, the list goes on and on and on.
they have performance every night at 9 sharp.
and haha, my two mega hot GOs performed trapeze stunts.
their pools are opened 24/7.
late night swims are uber cool cuz its super cooling.
day two; mega packed day.
my very first snorkling experience.
darn cool, i swear.
sounds like a total noob but who cares.
the corals and fishes are cuteeeee!
uhm, but the seawater is like ugh, salty.
haha, i hate to breathe through my mouth!
spa massage is super relaxing.
i almost fell asleep& she tapped me, "miss, we're done." ):
cooking demonstration means you get to learn to cook& EAT.
Taqwa is my fav chef lah!
the seafood soup, sambal prawn and green curry.
mega bagus! ((((((:
next up was archery.
once again, i felt like a total noob.
but Fablo been super patient with me and lil thang.
muahaha, i know how to aim kay!
and so, after sucha long day of activities..
all we wanted was to swim. (:
food was awesome like how i thought it would be.
its mexican and puerto rican night.
i ate like tonnes burritos & fajitas.
& i attacked the mango caramel cake like crazy.
caught the salsa dance performance.
haha, the kids with their innocent expressions and cute dance moves!
was dead beat when we walked back to our rooms.
five mins and i was soundly asleep.
after my last and satisfying breakfast in Club Med,
we left for the 9.30am ferry.
Felicia is the best GO ever!
" like oh, with the accent! "
the hot GO came back to Singapore with us lah!
but he's transferring to Club Med, Maldives. )):
came home and slpt for 6hrs straight.
i think the seasick pill works wonder.
alright, that pretty much sums up my trip.
even though i've got more to RAH but im super lazy.
im really sorry that i didnt bring back any gifts for my peeps kay.
cuz there's seriously nothing to buy!
and their stuff is severely overpriced.
one kinder bueno cost S$7 lah!
oh! i have to rant about this.
for a supper freak like me, its absolute torture after midnight
cuz there's NO food available after 12am. ):
uhmm, i will post the pictures soon kay!
cuz i've not yet sort them out.

drinking cocktail at 10am feels really wrong.
but we had fun.
Mr Goh can be quite cute at times, expressions i mean.

uhm, i dont really like the ending ya.
the every ten years thing just doesnt work out for me.
