A Lovely weekend in Paradise

Thanks to hubby for his impromptu decision to book for a staycation at Sofitel Sentosa resort. He brought us there last Wednesday after Ola for a sneak preview and on Wednesday night, he already booked 2D 1N staycation. The impromptu decision that we never regret.

We arrived around 3.30pm on Friday afternoon, the check in process was very smooth and our room got upgraded and even can add free extra bed, thanks to the front manager for his warm hospitality.





We were "WOW" with the luxurious space of the room, it feels like home and the kids immediately loved it especially our oldest. There were 2 televisions, one was in the living room and another room was in our bedroom so there is no fight between them.



After that, we went to a kids club to check out what's in there for about 15 minutes before going for a swimming. 


It's just perfect weather, not too hot and cloudy, the water was warm too. We brought our own snack too.







Fully satisfied and hungry after swimming, we went to Harry's at RWS for dinner. The staff was friendly and he gave the kids some chocolate treats.




We went back to our room feeling full and happy and have a good night sleep.

In the morning, I and hubby went for a morning walk wanting to catch the sunrise. Unfortunately, the weather was not friendly, it's pouring.




Around 9am, the kids were going for swimming, while I and hubby were exercising at gym.



Before check out, we checked out and tried a fish spa, it's fun haha





And claimed our welcome drink at the Cliff bar before heading back home.




It's a lovely weekend with family, beautiful place in paradise and precious memory to be treasured.




Rejuvenated, recharged and refreshed !

Dreams come true - Cappadocia (day 7)

This is the highlight of Cappadocia which is hot air balloon ride. As it depends a lot on the weather, we were lucky that we could fly to watch sunrise. We were picked up around 5.30am in the morning to Urgup area and arrived 20 mins later. They provided us with light breakfast while they lit up the balloon.  We started riding it around 6.20am and it's so breathtaking to see the Goreme area and hundreds of balloon joining us. The sunrise is around 7am and by 7.30am we already landed safely.  We had champagne celebration and received certificate too and returned back to our hotel for breakfast. Around 10am, we were picked up for Green Valley tour. Stopped by at Goreme Panorama and Pigeon valley for photo spots. After that, we went to Underground city where Anatolian people lived underground to survive from natural disaster and dangers. It's amazing how they build the houses and lived there for a long period of time. Then, we continued our tour to Selime Monastery and Cathedral ...

Reflection

It's been such a long time that I sit down, press a pause button and reflect back what has happened in my life, what things I should be grateful, what are the lesson learnt and what I should improve Things have gone so fast in my life and it's like unending cycle. It's been almost 2 months since I helmed the new project in the company I am working and it took half of my life. I felt like I had a new baby but not "literally baby", it's more responsibility as many lives are on stakes. I had no experience, no mentor and coach, no team per say, only one person who's not hundred percent fully committed in this project and on top of that, the company threw me in the deep sea that  I need to swim and survive. It reminded me back when I started my motherhood journey. With no knowledge, no experience, no mentor, no helpers and little money, we need to nurture the living baby and finally we survived. The first one was always the harder, but after the second and thir...

Dreams come true - Cappadocia (day 6)

It's time for another dream destination - Cappadocia. After arriving at Athens International Airport, we miscalculated the transit time. We only gave 1.5 hours in between without realising that we needed to change the airline and domestic route so we rushed out and checked in 25 minutes before the flight departed. Thanks God, we were still allowed for checking in. After settling in Turkish airlines, we were provided with warm baguette and drinks which could calm ourselves and our seat was next to emergency door so we got leg room. We arrived at Cappadocia airport which was very small and reminded me on my hometown's airport in the old days. Then we were picked up by airport transfer to our cave hotel - Panoramic cave hotel. The journey to the hotel was amazing, we saw many natural chimneys that we never saw before. Arriving in the hotel, we checked in to our pigeon nest room which was chimney suite and never stop took pictures of the room and the scenery surrounding. In the lat...
