We dragged our two princes out of dreamland at 7am to catch the ferry ride to Batam at Habourfront. The boat ride was pretty smooth with Jem continuing his sleep. Jay was as usual climbing up and down, making us wonder if we can ever survive an air fligth with him.
Harris is just like the clean hotel with good service reviewed by many on the forum. Jay happily slurped down his Bandung Welcome Drink while Mark was assisted with an early room check in. Once our luggages are settled, we took a cab down to the Megamall. The 45mins of car ride wind us through several small towns, showing us the humble lifestyle of the residents there.
Once we reached the mall... we headed straight for A&W for lunch... and of course, Root Beer Float. The fashion there is not as trendy as Singapore but still quite a nice place to shop for simple clothings.. which suits me just fine. I was planning to get some white tank tops in Giordano but never had the time to. Imagine my joy when i found some of better materials at just 3bucks each!! Jem gotten a Thomas the Train for 5bucks too.. and it's a original TOMY toy! I couldn't resist getting a few bottles of the popular Mani Lulur at their hypermark.
We tried donuts from Jco but its a tad too sweet for my liking. Before we headed back to the hotel, we packed some Indonesia food for dinner from Solaria.. yummilicious! and all for 15bucks
We planned to go for bowling after dinner but the alley ran out of socks and didn't have suitable shoes for Jem. He looked so disappointed. Thank goodness he cheer up after a few rounds of snooker. The kids konked out at the end of the day.
