So i'm back now. Hadn't been to Bintan in 3 years and was a little worried that we shouldn't have changed our plans from Bali. But anyway we had a fantastic time. The team is great...good mix of nationalities and the team seemed to work really well together. The weather was great no rain even though it was supposed to given it is still monsoon but they haven't had rain in 2.5 months after it rained for most of Nov/Dec. Sailing,Windsurfing and Kayaking started up again while we were there though the sea was still rough some days.
Anyway, food was better than last time though still not at Cherating standard with a clear lack of decent seafood but that was expected. The village was empty(e.g. 80 GMs) from Mon-Thursday every week and filled up from Fri-Sun with Singaporeans and expats.(250 GMs mostly golfers and conferences so didn't see them anyway) but the quiet suited us in that there were no lines for trapeze or anything and we had the pool to ourselves on some days.

So all in all a good time was had. If anyone wants a team update or anything i am happy to post with who is doing what. As for photos...don't really have any CM ones sorry...always forget.

Hey Lizzle,
Glad to hear you had a good time in Bintan. Lucky you got good weather I unfourtunately experienced the rain over new year while there. Just thought I'd let you know that I have plenty of pics of the current GO team if you want any just let me know.

Hey sun11shine,

Rifki is a really great guy. Too bad when we were there he spent most of the time lifesaving in the rain Here's his email
