SYH Hobbies Galore

Internet service at $15 per hour is very expensive, however, I still go for it after no internet for 6 days! I thought I could get online using Mcdonald free wifi service but do not know why I just could not online even thought already connected to their network.

I have to keep remind her to read the itinerary booklet carefully, so that she could prepare things according to the places we visit and what we do there.

hai..it is not easy to find a “ngam” key travel partner. I might choose a wrong travel partner this time, but I hope this would not spoil my vacation plan. I wishing to have a nice vacation with hubby only for quite long time already.

I already expected she does not read the itinerary booklet that I past to her last week. That is why I want to inform her again what to pack what to bring for our vacation. I do not want to spend time on waiting only. We are rushing on the first day, time is not enough for us to visit all the places, so why still have to spend time on something we could get ready before departure. Right?

A friend told me AA charge her RM300 to change flight! She not daring to travel due to AH1N1 influenza in short term, therefore she was planning to change the flight date.

Well, Air Asia charge RM75.00 per Head for Service fees. RM75 x 4 = RM300.00. She is right, AA definitely will charge her the RM300.00 admin fees just to change the flight date. Not worth to pay for it since the tickets she bought actually is 0 fare ticket.

I suggest her cancel the ticket and claim back the airport tax, it would be more suitable.

Everyone is scare to go for holiday because of A H1N1 cases. It is more and more serious in our country now. I having fear to infect A H1N1 too, but I am just too boring to stay at home. I wish I could have a short vacation soon. I just want a two days 1 night trip, maybe just bring the children to beach and have a night stay in hotel will do. But is it possible now?

I just signed up the newsletter subscription at AccorHotel website. Although I do not know would I book hotel in their website in the future, but I think it is no harm to subscribe their newsletter,  so that I could get update on their promotion and offer. Who knows I have chance to get some super deal which might real great and so co-incident I would be visit that destination soon. haha…It is all right to dream like this, better than what also could not do now. Even booked flight ticket but also could not book hotel due to current H1N1 problem. hai

I recheck and compare the Novotel Nathan Road Hotel at different website just now. Asiatravel showing that the cheapest deal is HKD880.00 (included tax) per night. However, AccorHotel is at HKD488.00 + 10% = HKD536.80 per night under their City super sale package! How come so big different? It is HKD343.00 different! Too good to be true huh! Oh my..this crazy offer make me so tempt to visit Hong Kong! Should I?

I think now is the best time to get most cheapest rate for hotel and flight. My friend keeps msn-ing me the Hong Kong rate which is unbelievable. She told me one night stay at Novotel Nathan Road Hong Kong is only HKD488 exclude tax. I have checked the total cost in detail once she told me the offer. All cost about HKD540 per night even at weekend. Really unbelievable! I remember I search this hotel before and it cost at least HKD800 per night! Now they are giving away 40% discount! Wow!

This is not a sponsor post. I really think it is a very useful website for those who want to get traveling information especially in hotel.

http://www.tripadvisor.co is one of the best website to search for hotel reviews. I been using it when I want to know the environment and real experience of the hotel. There have many loevley member who willing to share their experience after stayed in particular hotel. I love to read their comment and it could help me to select a better hotel.

Boss just shows me an advertisement in newspaper. She said there is a Beauty exhibition held on tomorrow and she is very interested to iattend the exhibition, asking me if I want to go with her. What a good idea! I am looking for eyes wrinkle cream since last month but could not find one. I wonder maybe I could discover some best wrinkle creams in the exhibition. Ok! I am going to the Beauty exhibition with boss tomorrow after work. hehea

few months ago, I read a friend blog about some annoying email she received. She said someone asked her about the traveling information about the place she is staying now. She has no hesitate to explain to them but never get reply from the sender even just to say thank you.

Well, I finally understand how she feels now. Some people really think the travelogue owner has responsibility to help them or they think the travelogue owner is travel agent that can earn from them? haha

I read many good reviews on the Yiu Fei Guesthouse. Most of the peoples stay there before commented that the room is pretty small (as what I expected).However the biggest advantage is that place is clean and secure, close to MRT station and the owner running the hostel seem trustable. I emailed them yesterday and they replied my email very fast. I think they customer service should be very nice, many peole praise their good services as well. Hmm… I am quite interested to rent this hostel now. I will keep in touch with him and see what to do next.

This is another hostel I could with better rating. Near to Tsim Sha Sui MRT station and not in Chung Hing Mansion. :p

Single room = HKD290.00
Double / Twin room = HKD360.00
Tripe room = HKD450.00
Quad room = HKD570.00

*****NEWLY RENOVATED*****
20 luxury rooms have just been refurbished in June 2008.

1. an excellent hostel. Buidling\’s outlook is horrible but don;t be put off, inside is excellent.
2. Very accessible to shopping area, fastfood chain as well as to the MTR station. The room is not so spacious but very clean and well-organized.

Found this guest house in a traveling website. No doubt that the price is very reasonable. I already email them and ask if they have any triple room because I could not find the price for Triple room. They replied me that they have a Tripe room which cost HKD450 per day.

Tripe room = HKD450
Double / Twin room = HKD350
Single room = HKD250

2. .Near to china ferry terminal..near to star ferry terminal..want to go New terrorities etc also no need take few more MTR trips etc etc…MTR station just 2 mins away.

My memory is very bad as I could not remember the information I search online. I always forget the information I need. Therefore, I decided to keep some of the travel information in this blog now. Currently I am searching the hotel information in Hong Kong. There are so many hostels available in Hong Kong; however, I am kind of worry the location and environment of the hostel. I think I watch too much of Hong Kong Drama, most of the hostel are located in those dirty and dangerous area. I do not have faint to stay there. Anyway, I will search the hostel info and keep the reviews, hostel still the best way to save on travel accommodation.

March 2008 Matta Fair just past few month and now is another time to visit Matta Fair again. Second 2008 Matta Fair is held on 05 – 07 September 2008. This time I am going to bring my sister and cousin to visit the fair. We want to check on the flight tickets promotion.

We planning to go to vacation if we could get cheap flight tickets. We haven’t decide where to go yet. I think we probably will decide on the time we get cheap tickets.

My mood is not very good now, although CP keep talking about Japan vacation with me lately. Cannot denying that I am very excited when talk about it but I have to control myself not to chat about it so much also. I am worry I will be too excited and end up could not sleep at night! Anyway, this would be a very good relaxing moment in the office when we talk about Japan.

Besides the City name, I am very stupid to understand their train system too. She shows me a detail map of the train schedule but I do not understand it. First, I do not know the location name. Second, I do not know which line is for which train system. They have few lines that goes to the different place. I do not even understand how much their charges even the price has show in the map.

I am very confuse about the city name in Japan. When CP talk with me which hotel to stay and which hotel is cheaper, I suddenly feel very headache because I just could not differential their name. Look at this…Tokoyo Inn and Tokyu Inn ..The name look quite similar, isn’t it? Now you know why I am feeling headache when heard of it.
