Re: Update on Tanjung Pinang
Day two: After our breakfast around 8am, the 3 of us wants to check out the KM24 scene. The others who retired early yesterday want to check out malls and things to buy. The hotel shuttle did not cater travelling as far as KM24 (KM24 is really 24 kilometres out of the city) and they arrange another outside driver who always drives their customers to faraway places. The reason being that the hotel shuttle is only for travelling near the city and for a short time. The price is 120k for a trip and another 120k back if you take a long time browsing there. Manage to find out that KM16 is already shutdown and did not bother to check it out.
Upon arriving 10am++, all we see is a deserted kampong area. There is only one house with cewek upfront but they’re really old bird. The driver says that the cewek works all night then and there and rarely goes out for bookings (totally a different story than Balai). After, 20mins waiting on 2 different houses, waiting cewek to present themselves, we give up. The ones that managed to show up neither catches our eyes, nor the cewek themselves gives vibes wanting to be book.
After back to the hotel, the hotel counter quoted 240k for the trip. A trip with no success but we did get the story and look of KM24. After lunch, we ask for massages at 4pm and the hotel driver brings us out to this strictly traditional massage with the aromatherapy smell and music. We took the 400k per person package that contains body massage and scrubs for 90mins. While the massages are great, we still have not find a cewek and is already 7pm (plus minutes waiting the hotel driver to pick us up). Really out of luck!
Ps: After dinner and the next day…
