We spent our March holidays on a 4D3N Disney cruise, and here’s a quick recap of the experience. The boys had a great time onboard—even though none of us are die-hard Disney fans.

K has been reminding me to finish the video montage of our Egyptian holiday so he can share it with his friends—the sandboarding, the hot air balloon ride, the camel ride.

The trip was a last minute decision to fill in an excursion for his school holiday, and also an outing with him alone before baby arrives next year. Before the trip, I had several bouts of complications from my current pregnancy and … [Read more…]
In my earlier post – Bringing baby to Tokyo, I mentioned that I was transiting in Tokyo and on my way to Guam. It took us 6.5 hours to fly to Tokyo, and another 3 hours to fly to Guam. I got to learn about this beautiful U.S. territory in the western Pacific Ocean after first … [Read more…]
We were looking forward to our year end holiday to Tokyo + Guam last December. Tokyo has always been a popular travel destination for Singaporeans largely because of its developed infrastructure, friendly people and high standards on food, safety and hygiene.
