Gearing to go

Published by G under Travel

A new month and a new season has started. Unfortunately nothing else is new or exciting. Well I guess there is one ie our upcoming vacation. How I wish it was a Branson Missouri vacation we’re going to but it’s not. A trip is better than no trip that’s for sure. Can’t make it to Branson, [...]

They should travel

Published by G under Travel

It’s someone’s birthday yesterday but I didn’t personally wish her – so bad of me, I know. However, I did make DD to write her a card which of course she didn’t sound too excited when received, typical.   Anyway, I was thinking a retired couple like them should be travelling in their country. Perhaps [...]

Warragamba Dam

Published by G under Travel

During the Easter Long Weekend, we visited Warragamba Dam – the source of Sydney’s Water supply and is the largest concrete dam in Australia.  It took 12 long years to build this dam.  Here is a photo I took of the dam (actually 3 different shots stitched together using the Canon photostitch software). It was [...]

MAS e-newsletters

Published by G under Travel

I am pretty sure I have only recently (since a few months ago) been receiving MAS e-newsletters on its offers eventhough I’ve been a member of the frequent flyer rewards club in 2001. If MAS had been sending out emails about its promos and such since the year I joined, then pardon me, I never [...]

Wishtrip – Disneyland

Seriously, we had been looking on the internet on Disney vacation packages good for travel till at least end of the year. However we have yet to find something within our budget.   Lots of planning to do if we were to fit in a Disney trip into our itinerary. DD would be thrilled if [...]

New Zealand on a motorhome

Published by G under Travel

Yes I wish. Whenever I think about this beautiful country, the thought of hiring a caravan comes to my mind especially now that we are a family instead of just two free spirited adults with nothing to hinder our mobilities.   It would be really great if DH would drive a motorhome instead of a [...]

No travelling yet

Published by G under Travel

Last year, sadly we did not travel overseas nor had any stayover holiday locally. Yet I still dream of a breakaway far far from our home. Imagine myself staying at any one of those hawaii hotels, looking out the sea from the balcony, enjoying the sea breeze on my face.   Ah, what a fairytale [...]

Short holiday break?

Published by G under Travel

We’re still contemplating where to go for a short holiday. Due to time constraint and limited budget, we definitely has to look for somewhere near. Forget about faraway exotic beaches like cancun mexico for example, though it would be lovely to be able to travel all the way there.   Why do I get the [...]

Short Holiday to where?

Published by G under Travel

Since several months ago, DH and I had been pondering where to go for a holiday. Ideally it should be in overseas and to stay at one of those Outer Banks rentals would be great!   Unfortunately a trip to the USA is out of our budget. We’ve been pondering about a local holiday but [...]

Can’t holiday yet

Published by G under Travel

The pressure is really on me now that my sis asked again if I would be making a trip back to KL for my niece’s wedding. Unfortunately my answer is still a firm no due to several circumstances.   Though I could really do with a getaway like some destinations at Orlando vacations, situation just [...]

Scenic drive on a motorhome

Published by G under Travel

The other side of the family would like us to visit them across the Tasman. More so when most of them have never seen our little girl before; except in photos.   I would love to go there again especially if we could do some travelling in a campervan. You know, do the whole South [...]

Holiday Dreams

Published by G under Travel

Still dreamin’ of holidays I am! It doesn’t help when my sister just spent a week at Geneva, a place I have always hoped to go. Oops did I just sound jealous?   Anyway, due to several circumstances we really could not afford to plan anything ahead. I trust this will change in at least [...]

Still dreaming

Published by G under Travel

So the dream of a holiday continues. I have never thought about Las Vegas as much as I have this past twelve months. Mostly because I see that name often and I can’t help but to think of what it would be like to take some Vegas vacations in the future if we ever get the [...]

Need a holiday

Published by G under Travel

Well, since it is impossible for us to travel overseas this year, I had actually been looking at some local getaways, particularly beach sides with accommodation like those of the Outer Banks, so serene, beautiful, it makes a perfect getaway for our family of three.   But still, there is just one thing holding us [...]

Travel Deals

Published by G under Travel

I have seen so many great overseas travel deals offered recently and they keep coming to my Inbox more often than ever! Some of which pains me to have to watch them pass as circumstances do not permit us to make any travel plans for the time being.   Anyway, with my DD’s personality, it is [...]
