After a week without internet connection plus four days in Hongkong, I AM BACK!

There’s a lot of things I’ve to catch up on — visiting blogsites, writing blog posts, meeting deadlines (goodness,I think a couple had already lapsed. tsk. tsk), and finishing tons of work in the office. I still have a lot of unpacking to do, so in the meantime, I’ll leave you with a few good pictures taken from the window of our hotel room:

That’s where we’re staying during our travel to Hongkong. I’ve stayed in this hotel two years ago and for me, it was just okay. The superior room was spacious though I find the layout a bit outdated. The bathroom was memorable since it was the tiniest that I’ve ever seen, and also a little old-fashioned . The location was superb though – as far as shopping is concerned . It’s just right beside the mega-shopping centers, Ocean Terminal and Harbour City. In front are high-end designer shops like Louis Vuitton, Dior, Gucci, and Prada, among others.

I can be a bit fussy on the hotels I stay in. So before booking my accommodation, I do my assignment and research on several hotels. Here are some sites I’ve recently bumped into which, I think, are worthwhile considerations (you may notice that these are European Hotels. Could this mean I’m already planning on a tour to one of these cities? In the far future, yes ) : Milan Hotels, Barcelona Hotels, Madrid Hotels, Hotels in Venice.

When Gats and I were planning on a honeymoon destination, we considered going on an Asian cruise. But due to budget constraints, we just traveled to Hong Kong and enjoyed a four night stay at The Marco Polo. I still want to experience going on a cruise though. An Asian cruise would be ideal, but a royal caribbean cruise would just be fantastic! But until our travel budget permits us, plans of “cruise” trips will be put on hold.
