Batam Day 3

The tour for those 3 days and 2 nights end...and so just left us - those from Penang that extend one more day stay in Batam. Thus, we have time to sleep late as the tour guide ask us to gather at the lobby at 11am Malaysia time.
Fisrt, we go to the Berelang bridge (彩虹桥) which is the first bridge that connect to another islands (Batam island to Tonton island). The length of this bridge is 644m with a stretch over sea water for 530m. This bridge is held by cable stay system.
crazy hair~~!!very strong wind blowing!!!!

nice view from Berelang brige...the water is so clean!!!

the brigde
Next destination - Guanyin that located in a resort.
The guanyin was loacted facing to the sea before which the foreigner that come from different country by ship can see it. However, Indonesia is a Islamic country so they oppose and want to explode the Guanyin.
Therefore, all the chinese at Batam act in a very co-operation way to go on strike and all gather infront of the Guanyin. It's because at Indonesia, although chinese only about 10% but 90% of the economic is contributed by chinese.
After negotiation, chinese agree to move the Guanyin and Muslims agree. It'sneed about 6 month to move it by using helicopter etc.

We have our lunch at Golden Prawn restaurant 933 which nearby our hotel.
After that we go back to hotel as tonight got dinner again (it's sorry dinner for yesterday.) Anyway, we plan not to go again because WE WANT SHOPPING!!!keke...

So I go to my cousin room to discuss about it and we go to another room to search for another her sisters...EEee...they're not around...so we go down to the lobby...they're in the POLO RalphLauren shop which inside the hotel~~
My cousin bought me a jacket which cost S$168 and after 20% discount is S$134.40 (RM 310). Gift for me to go to Australia. ^-^ Domo Arigatoo Gozaimasu~~ I like it so much~~~
My mum come down later and I buy a long sleeve clothe and 1 POLO T. kakaka...

Spending too much time and money in the small shop, so all of us have to go for the dinner. keke...my dad and mum first time singing on the stage and infront of poeple!!!haha...anyway, bring fun to all of the people there.
during the dinner
930pm Batam's time we go back to hotel.
After bathing and enjoying watching TV, my cousin sister calls me...hehe..actually we plan to chit-chat at the pool-side, but it's too late. So I go to her sister's room and my parent are there. Hearing adults discussing for next year 世彭大会 which will held in Penang on 10 Oct and we kaypo beside until 1am something.
