Booked and Confirmed

Gosh, after so many delays, confused agent and so many issues, finally I was able to finish our booking for Boracay in April. I made reservations for 18 people and it's really a serious job especially when air fare rates suddenly increased and I know my other siblings won't agree with it. I know we will be having lots of fun and we should increase our vocabulary because my sister's kids, hubby and brother in law don't know how to speak our language. Maybe next month I must start buying the kids their new summer outfit in going to Boracay, well maybe I might include funny shirts on my list to attract attention and to make the reader smile too. Anyway due to budget constraints, I booked in two hotels and different airline for the last 12 pax.

Red Coconut Beach Hotel

Sis was already decided to stay at Red Coconut Beach Hotel and they were already in a panic mode to make reservations because online booking was already closed. Unfortunately I only saw the comment of mareng Nini today and haven't suggested the Regency lagoon with them. Anyway, sissy was too generous to gave us free room accomodation so we only need to shoulder our airfare! I reserved one Premier room for her brother in law and four Deluxe rooms for us, I guess everybody will be excited with this mini reunion.

Christmas Box

My mom was really disappointed because her expected balikbayan box has not been delivered until now. Most of her Christmas gifts were there especially the chocolates that she’s supposed to give to the kids during Christmas day. She doesn’t want to visit her former colleagues in National Telecommunications Commission because of the “missing chocolates”; her visit with her colleagues will not be complete without the chocolates. That’s why my brother decided to buy chocolates in Duty Free and avail of their tempting promos. I was told that almost all her (mom) things in the US were already sent here including her blankets, gifts like the american products pool light and some pots and pans from her siblings. I did not want to spoil her Christmas but I told her that I guess the box will be delivered maybe on the third or fourth week of January.
