First Family Trip to Hong Kong

Posted on

Last year in April, we went for our very own family trip to Hong Kong. We have planned this trip in advance and were very excited for the kids. This was also Javier’s first flying experience.
We planned a few ‘new experiences’ for the kids and for us as well. After-all, we are still kids at heart.

We travelled with Cathay Pacific and as this was our first trip together, the boarding experience wasn’t very good at all. There weren’t any priority announcements made for family with young children. We actually had to maneuver our way to the front and asked for boarding. And the worst part of all was the delay. We were delayed from 15mins – 30mins – 45 minutes – almost an hour.

First bad experience with Cathay; imagine our kids being from excited to restless!!!

Where is the boarding announcement?

Lunch Date with Mom & Dad

Posted on

AMARIN THAI – I love this place.. love the food, the drinks, the atmosphere and most of all I love eating. Though we savored this yummylicious food few weeks back, I can still feel the ‘Steam Fish with Lime, Chili and Garlic Sauce in my rumbling tummy.

Truth is we were actually celebrating our 10th Anniversary and invited my parents along but they didn’t know the invitation was for that particular occasion. We didn’t tell and not until now. So MOM if you’re reading this, YES we just wanted to celebrate our anniversary with both of you. We enjoy your company because we know you two don’t judge, won’t complain and never give us a hard time. And yes, Elaine… we wished you were here. :)

A lot have changed since we last stepped into Amarin Thai, Midvalley.. decor changed, furniture changed and menu also changed but not the flavors!!!
