Montego Bay in Jamaica

Have you seen the Montego Bay in Jamaica? Gesh, the place is fabulously awesome! I saw some blogs and websites with pictures of it while I was blog hopping. The place is really fascinating. How I wish I would be able to visit such place and stay at their stunning Montego Bay hotels. Places like that with someone you love would absolutely be a blissful moment.

Oh well, I guess I found myself day dreaming again. Touch luck Ruby…you need to work even harder to get there! LOL!

Hoping to Travel Someday

I remembered when I was having my summer vacation at Manila; I would spend time going through my cousin’s albums. I view them almost every day because I envied the places where they have gone. They have gone to the US. They have visited Disney Land in California, played with snow and even enjoyed their evenings with their Vegas vacations. As I turn the pages of their photo album, I always wished that I too had the money to visit these places.

Today, I would still imagine going to places. I still hoped that maybe someday I could bring my children to the US or any other country just for a vacation. That is why inside my heart right now, I am hoping to get a job abroad. Earn more so that I would be able to save for such a vacation.

I hope it’s not yet too late to dream now that I am almost 30 years old.

Digital Travel to Westgate Lakes

Since I got my own internet access at home, I have been traveling the world through the pages I visit. I may not be there physically but reading the features and the facilities of many hotels, resorts and vacation getaways made me felt that I was there. Most of the exciting part is when you read travel blogs of people who have actually been there and visited those places that you only read about.

Lately, in my digital travel around the world, I was able to visit Westgate Lakes Resort & Spa. This lakefront resort and spa is located at 10000 Turkey Lake Road, Orlando, Florida 32819. It is also conveniently located near Walt Disney World © Resort, Universal Orlando© Resort and SeaWorld © Orlando. It is a perfect family getaway. It is a spa for parents to relax and near places that the children will have great fun. They have a complete rentable Grand Villas that includes all the facilities that will make you feel at home. They also have many sports related facilities that can make your stay a great family bonding moment.

Gesh, I wish I could visit them physically with my family. I am sure that would become a one great awesome time!

Places I Might Want to Go

One of the things I wanted to do in life before I hit old age is to be able to visit another country. I haven’t been out here since I was born. Some of the several places I would love to go and visit are California in the US, Jerusalem, Eifel Tower in Paris, Caribbean at South America, Greece, Canada, Australia and many more. Maybe visiting at least one or two of them would be a dream comes true!

Anyway, you may wonder why I choose California in many states in the US. Well, one thing for sure is that they are one of the states in the US that ranks high in number with Filipinos residing. It would be lovely seeing people of the same race. It makes you feel at home! Another thing is the places you can visit there. Like Rancho Santa Fe CA, they are one of those luxurious resorts that you might want to spend with your loved one or the whole family. They have plenty of packages to avail if you want to have a discount.

But there are also some countries that I might want to migrate with my family, it can be Canada or Australia. They have nice benefits for their citizens but of course, I want to grow old in the Philippines since there is no place like home!

Dream Family Getaway

One of the things I really would love to have this Christmas or the next summer vacation is to get away with the whole family. I really want to enjoy my time with them, away from the usual crowd. Why you ask? Well, sometimes, people around us tend to manage our family. They make us feel incapable of running our own and sometimes they try to suggest things but ends up dictating what they want. It’s just so irritating!

Anyway, one of the places that I would love my family to go is at Branson, Missouri. The place looks so happy and very appealing for a family getaway. And the attractions are just so fascinating! My family would sure forget all the troubles if we visit the Silver Dollar City and ride that awesome roller coaster to get an adrenaline rush. I also would like to visit the Titanic Museum and feel like “Rose and Jack.” Since my husband and I love music, the Branson shows would surely be a hit especially the Legends in Concert.

Oh well, if I were given a chance, I would really love to experience a wonderful holiday getaway!

Travel Plans and Hotel Bookings

My husband and I are planning to take a vacation with the whole family. But as of now, we couldn’t afford to go state side. So probably we will visit any Asian countries first and we were thinking about Hong Kong. Aside from being the shopping district of Asia, it’s where Disneyland is located. It would surely make the children happy and of course the parents too!

Since we are budget travelers, I decided to check on available hotels and their prices at online hotel booking sites. My friend always told me, it’s faster and affordable to book online. I searched for Hong Kong hotels and I find Harbour Plaza Metropolis a perfect place. It’s located near the shopping district of Hong Kong and a few minutes ride to Disneyland. Then I checked several reservation sites just to compare prices. If you compare the price at www.booking.com and www.hotelscombined.com, you can see that if you book a room at Harbour Plaza Metropolis, you can really save a lot of money if you book it with www.hotelscombined.com. Aside from that, they can save you more time looking for a hotel and booking it because they automatically convert the price to your local currency and even the price of other hotels within the area! By the way, I even checked on Regal Airport Hotel at www.asianrooms.com and I was really shocked! The difference is always by the thousands.

Anyway, when the time comes that I need to book our vacation to Hong Kong, I will not forget about www.hotelcombined.com. It’s doesn’t only save you time searching but a hefty amount of money!
