Thanksgiving Break!

My daughter has a long thanksgiving break. She was off from school since Thursday of November 22  until today, Tuesday, November 27! That's a total of 7 days off. Her teacher gave them a journal to do while they're all in break for thanksgiving plus sent them extra books to read.

 

Tomorrow is back to normal where my daughter goes back to school, hubby go to work, me and the baby will be left in the house again.

Florida Life

Thanks for the post, Vernon Lowe

Florida is a great place to own a vacation home but that doesn't mean it's cheap. I feel like we spend a lot of time worrying about maintaining the place and paying all of the contractors that keep it up, like the gardeners, and housekeepers, in the property management company. I love that we can just get in the car and drive a few hours to our very own home when we want to get away but sometimes I feel really locked in to Crystal Lake.

We recently had Crystal Lake clear wireless internet installed so at least one of their I don't feel as cut off from work but there are definitely times when I wonder what a vacation would be like in another place like Panama City or even the Dominican Republic. I think at the end of the day this house was a great investment for my husband and I and I don't regret it but there are moments when I wonder if owning a vacation home is more trouble than it's worth.

Another Friend's Vacation..

I received a call yesterday from a friend. We talked about blogging matter as she was confused and encountered some problem. I hope that everything will be straightened out before she leave for a vacation. She is going to Philippines for a vacation. They already have the airplane tickets and they are going to leave this Wednesday!

How I wish I could go but that is impossible for the plane ticket is so expensive. She was lucky to purchased hers for  under $3,000- when we went to Philippines lasts year, my husband paid almost $4,000 for two airplane tickets. Wishing her all the luck and a happy, safe trip!

There are seven places that are cheap to travel now and these are the following: First is Orlando , Florida. Second is Chicago, IL. Third is, River Maya, Mexico. Fourth is Aspen, Colorado. Fifth is Phoenix, Arizona. Six is Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Seven is Atlanta, Georgia.

Philippine Vacation 2010 - 2011

December first of 2010 when my daughter and i  left our US residence for Philippine vacation a little over two months ago. There were myriad emotion involved while stepping out the door's house knowing that my husband would be alone for the very first time and to see the reaction of my family and for them to see my daughter for the very first time and was not sure how my daughter's going to react towards my family.

The travel from JFK airport going to Japan was been smooth and from Japan to Manila was too. My daughter managed her traveling experienced so well i was impressed as it was her first time to be in the plane surrounded with passengers who were all strangers to her.

We met good people and made some good friends. We reached NAIA airport in December second which is an international airport in Philippines and rode a shuttle bus that took us to PAL for our domestic flight the next day/morning which was in December third still were lucky enough to met and made some friends. The manila to our domestic flight was been fine at first and towards the end of the flight my daughter started crying, throwing tantrums. Took her to the lavatory and we spent our last 20 minutes inside pampering her, calming her down but she was really terrible and kept saying she was HOT! Poor little girl.

Such a great moment to see my family outside the arrival area. Daughter first reaction was so silent and gradually started to warmed herself up and started talking to everybody specially to my niece Nicole whose over four years old, a year older than my daughter.
