This year, we had something different.The Por family went for a trip without anyone but only the 4 of us! As there were only 4 of us, we didnt plan much before hand. We decided to really "FREE & EASY"!
As usual, booked a promo tix with Jetstar at about SGD120.00 per pax. (Always waiting for promo to get the best price! Hehe)
Tried using the self-help check in! Really easy and can save the hassle of q-ing....

| We got to lie down in order to squeeze through those caves! |
We finish after dark by floating our own self-made flower "Kratong" in a spectacular Natural Light Show! We got to see fireflies and dinoflagellates (bioluminescent plankton).
The monsters had a great time exploring the caves and canoe at the same time!
For our 3rd day, we decided on a island hopping the next before. This trip was cheaper than Hong by Starlight. As expected, it was not so adventure than Hong.
