Weekend Stayover

Checking out the golf course outside....
Weekend stay over at the hotel coincided with AIR’s 14-month birthday. No, we didn’t intentionally go there for his birthday but it was supposed to be a postponed anniversary stay-over. It was just in Holiday Inn Glenmarie. Rooms seemed to have been refurbished since the last I was there and it’s nice. I think they went through a re-branding exercise too, as the brand logo has also been changed.

It was AIR’s first hotel stay and when we checked into the room he was super-excited. Babbling away non-stop, walking and exploring all over the room he was really happy.

After a short rest we decided to take him for a dip in the pool. It’s been ages since the last one. And that was when he hasn’t started walking. And my oh my, he just couldn’t wait the moment he saw the pool. Struggling while changing didn’t help. Once he was done, he just ran towards to pool. Aiyo, dangerous man. In the pool, he just couldn’t stop kicking and splashing with his arms, mimicking swimming moves and trying to push himself towards to side of the pool. Dunno where he learnt that but it was good to see. The best part was the kids’ pool was just nice for him to stand up. It took him by surprise when I just let him go all of a sudden, but he managed well.

Now, if a 2-3star hotel can provide free wifi and broadband services, why a 5-star hotel can’t? Isn’t it very strange? Wifi services were chargeable at RMX.95 per minute. Gosh, can you imagine? Per minute….

Anyways, it was a good stay over, minus the hectic swimming pool experience (oh boy I was tired after all that chasing around) and minus the massage/spa which I wanted to go for but didn’t have time in the end….lazing around and being entertained by the lil’ guy was good enough…
Now, when can I make that facial/massage appt? :P

Happy Anniversary!

Happy anniversary, Sayang!

Ok, so this wouldn’t be the getaway planned or the romantic dinner…so instead, after waking up from my nap, we ordered Dominos as the lil’ one just got to sleep. So we ordered our usual, plus the free regular.

When it arrived, we had the large and unable to finish it, we took that 2 pieces to keep in the smaller box, only did we notice they delivered the regular not as what we ordered. It came with hand-tossed crust but we ordered the thin crust. So, not very happy (though it was going to be my lunch the next day only), I called up the outlet to let them know that the regular pizza was wrongly sent. The person told me he will replace it and I can keep the wrong one too. 5 minutes later he called me back to tell me the order will be abit late and told me to enjoy that existing pizza first.

The doorbell rang much later, just when I thought they were not going to send anymore. Hubby came in and I was shocked to see him carrying another large pizza on top of the regular which was changed. Oh no!! Pizza feast! Seriously, I only expected the regular pizza to be replaced and not the large one either. Gosh, thank goodness they din bring the lagsana too!
