It’s been a hectic two months… I was so busy at work.\u00a0 New colleague came in on 25th May and I had been spending entire days teaching her from scratch.<\/p>\n
Finally managed to finish teaching all the basic stuff yesterday.\u00a0 Finally had time to take a breather.<\/p>\n
Gosh….<\/p>\n
Well in the meantime while all these were happening, I have booked yet another trip (?!) to Japan this coming November.\u00a0 Haha!\u00a0 Initially it was supposed to be just a last-minute-planned short Hong Kong trip, but as I was looking through the airticket and hotel bookings and overall costs, I realise with just bit more money thrown in, I could go for a simple Tokyo trip! So after a quick discussion with Bruno (he was also willing to save and splurge a bit more for Japan!), we decided to switch our year end short holiday break from Hong Kong to Japan (Tokyo – Asakusa only, to be precise).<\/p>\n
Airtickets were becoming expensive and the promo fares that SQ\/ANA were offering were long snapped up with others.\u00a0 What’s left are regular airfares which are really too expensive.\u00a0 Thankfully JAL still has reasonably-priced airtickets, so I managed to get them! Also, we picked Red Planet hotel to stay as the trip will be in my birthday month and Red Planet offers a whopping 45% discount off their prices to members during birthday month.\u00a0 So I managed to save quite a bit despite choosing to stay in a pretty popular area.<\/p>\n
The itinerary that I’ve drawn up isn’t too ambitious.\u00a0 I wanted it to be more relaxed but somehow one thing led to another and we ended up having a pretty packed itinerary!\u00a0 Not that we will be rushing to and fro like headless chickens though, but I have wished it could have been more relaxing… can’t be helped though, there’s really too many things to do\/see, and too little time!<\/p>\n
So now, what’s left is just the waiting….. 5 more agonizing months to the trip.\u00a0 Ohhhh it’s time to start that countdown timer widget at the bottom too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
