A Mother’s Monologue

I’ve learnt that it doesn’t matter where you are or what you do in a holiday that matters but great company. Even if we had stayed at some crummy resort, and we might have as well done that, as long as you have great company, it is all that matters.
I kid you not.

I was wondering [...]

When our vacation was booked, Tee’s boyfriend’s Mom was really stressed out that we were going to stay at such an adult place, a honeymoon-ish type of resort, where only quiet couples were seen during meal times. Heck, you don’t even see these couples in the whole of Cameron Highlands and you’re wondering why??
Hello, what [...]

After an entire morning of picking up trash, hey, that’s 4 kilometers mind you, of steep uphill struggles, we were famished. Our meals were all packaged up by the resort so we ate there mostly, despite cravings to get out into the town to eat real food.
Breakfast at the resort was good - ample supply [...]

The first thing we did on our first morning in Cameron Highlands after a sumptuous breakfast was to WALK IT OFF!!! Actually, we also had a night stroll on our first night after dinner but it was nothing compared to this morning walk that we braved 2km up a steep hill where the Shell Bungalow [...]

Next week, we go for a holiday at an almost adults only resort. Well, they don’t actually specify that it is an adult only resort but when you see the setting of it, you almost assume that it is one where children are not very welcome, especially by honeymooning couples. Well, what the heck, we’ll [...]

One of our family traditions is to have an annual holiday together with the extended family. For some reason, ChiangMai has always lured us back, year after year. We’ve been to other cities as well, but ChiangMai is just one place we will always come home to. For me personally, it is the food. Glorious, [...]

OK, two guesses what the above picture is all about.
For the longest time, Tee has wanted to see real snow. She wants to feel it, touch it, be in it and keeps asking us to take her to Canada or Switzerland because she wants to see snow!!! Sometimes she asks for England too, but not [...]

How did we choose where to stay when we went? For us it was simple. We were going to get a discount from a family member, so it was either Hotel A or Hotel B, so we chose the better of the two. But otherwise, how would you choose where to stay when in Orlando?
