We traveled to Bintan Island, Indonesia this weekend for Greg's company Christmas party weekend. Epi-Use had about 43 people for the event. We arrived at the resort on Friday night and were greeted by Indonesian dancers. We are treated like VIPs the entire weekend. Both Friday and Saturday night we had dinner served on the beach with full bars and incredible food.
This a picture of the resort from the beach side.
This is one of the pools with the ocean in the background.
Here is a picture of the house we stayed in, and to make things more interesting we shared it with the CEO of Epi-Use and his family.
The backyard of each house has it's own pool.
Greg and I both had massages on the beach. How much more relaxing can it get??
Since it is monsoon season the waves were really large. As you can see the beach is just about deserted so it was very nice to walk along. I did get in but not on purpose, I fell in while climbing on some rocks and ruined the post card I had just bought.(Sorry Dad) I am entertaining company not necessarily with my witty conversation!
Once again I was amazed and impressed with my new experience in Asia. I guess when I decided to take this trip I had a preconceived idea of what I would see and what it would be like. I have to say I was very off base. It is far nicer and much more western than I expected. I think this has made it easier than I thought and more comfortable to travel. I guess it is a better way to travel with no expectations so I am excited by each thing. I wonder what I will see next????
