Just A Week To Go…

NT — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 05:21:11 +0000

..and I’ll be celebrating with my soulmate, my bestfriend, my life…our 4th year wedding anniversary.

Earlier this year, we planned and started to save for an anniversary trip abroad. My husband hasn’t set foot on international grounds yet and our Hong Kong Honeymoon trip didn’t push through so we were really set to make it happen this year. Even though he has experienced flying in an airplane, my little tot would also want to ride again as airplanes are his fascination. This prompted me to canvas good travel deals on the web. Hong Kong was my top choice but I was also browsing package deals in other destinations like inclusive Jamaica just in case our budget permits. I’ve been reading good reviews and raves about Jamaica and its all inclusive resorts offerings in various travel sites and it really got me interested. I even made extensive research about Ocho Rios hotels. Their guests have a lot of positive things to say about this hotel.

Unfortunately, the sudden turn of events and goals realignment this mid-year puts again this plan in the backseat. We have a number of things to prioritize and hopefully, by next year, we can push through with this abroad trip.
