Universal Studios Osaka

The reason why we went to Osaka first is because of Universal Studios!

Yes we love theme parks! Our goal is to bring the kids to the theme parks worldwide! yay! I can’t wait to bring them anywhere! We will make more happy memories together!

Anyway, it took us 2 hours before we arrived in Universal Studios Osaka. Naligaw na naman kasi sa train. Mali ang nasakyan namin… kailangan pa naming bumalik sa station kung saan kami galing.

Anyway, kasama na talaga yan sa pag explore ang maligaw.

I’m glad we reached right on time. Hindi mahaba ang pila at dahil medyo gutom na kami, kumain muna kami bago kami nag explore.

Ang goal talaga namin ay mapuntahan ang Harry Potter Theme…

So eto na…Ā  ang saya saya ni hubby!

PUmila kami ng napakahaba.. only to find out na yong pinasok pala namin ay kailangan magrides! Yong parang nasa stick ka nakasakay!

My God, hindi ako ready! akala ko simpleng rides lang… yon pala para kang nasa loob ng washing machine!

The whole time nasa ride ako ay nakapikit ako. As in nakakapit lang ako don sa rides at nakapikit! Rinig ko lahat ng pangyayari pero hindi ko kayang imulat mata ko dahil sobrang nakakahilo talaga!

And yes.. akala ko atakihin ako ng vertigo ko.

My goodness! pagkatapos don parang nanlambot ako at umupo na..

Nagpahid na ako ng mga essential oils… after ilang minutes naging ok na rin ako! nakakaloka! hindi ko na uulitin yon!

Kansai Airport

When we arrived at the Kansai Airport, I was so amazed!

It was so big and so clean. I immediately used the toilet and oh my… so clean. Then, I got confused of their toilets… parang ang daming pipindutin but later on I figured it out already. ahhahaa

After we passed the immigration, we found out that we need to ride a train to reach to our hotel.

It’s quite confusing using the train but then we had fun.

Good thing, hubby had Waze that made our travel time to Japan more efficient.

So here I am… ready to have fun!

Birthday Getaway

Me and hubby just turned 40 this year and we wanted to celebrate it in a different way.

At first, I wanted a big party but realized that it is not what I really want…

Because I wanted is to be in a place I’ve never been… So we decided to visit Japan. Japan is a dream destination of hubby and since we love Japanese food, we decided that it is indeed the best location to celebrate our 40th birthday!

Early this year, we already booked our ticket, then each month we plan our tours. I let hubby prepare our itineraries because he is more familiar with Japan.Ā Boarding..

Meal on board

Ayaw namin magutom šŸ˜€

We arrived around 7pm.

Maldives: What We Do

 

The moment we arrived in Maldives and got a chance to rest, we never wasted time. We see to it to explore the Island.

I remember around 4 years ago when I decided to start my travel agency, I came across an articleĀ about Maldives and when I researched more about it, I was inlove right away with the beauty of it. It becomes my hobby to check on nice beaches around the world but Maldives is my first choice to visit because it’s Visa Free. As the years goes by, I never stop hoping to visit the place.

So there.. I decided to visit Maldives as soon as possible and save for this trip since I know that going to Maldives is not cheap specially if you wanted to stay in a nice resort.

We decided to stay 5 days and 4 nights in Maldives and I love every moment of it.

 

On our first day, we just explore the place near our villa. We stayed in the bar at night and just feel the moment.

 

The second day was Valentines Day and we had our dinner, explore the island and watch the sunset.

 

 

We really enjoy our moment in Maldives. The fine sand and the clear water are really breath taking. It is indeed a paradise.

 

When it was time for us to go, I really feel sad because I know that I will terribly miss the place.

If only I am super rich, I will definitely stay longer.

It was one of the best vacations we ever had because the moment I was there, I really forgot to work but I know that I should be checking my business but most of the time I was relaxing. I just love staying in the beach, drink and eat. I also sleep a lot.

I know that it was not the last time, I know that I will definitely be going back in Maldives soon… Ā because I just know…

Maldives: Arrival

 

We arrived at Male Maldives around 9pm and we decided not to look for a place because our flight to the resort is 6am. I thought that staying in the airport was not bad at all. The locals were nice and I feel safe then I decided to take a nap. It was very uncomfortable but since I was so tired already, I was able to sleep.

 

I looked so haggard already but still I am excited to explore the place.

Hubby got this sim card so we can access data. Getting a local sim helped us save from our high phone bill.

 

Here are the views from above while we were in the Sea Plane.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Maldives: Where We Stay

Maldives haveĀ 1192 islands and it is really important to choose an island to stay. Some Islands are own by private companies so you really have so many choices.

When I had my research last year, I decided that we should stay in The Sun Siyam Resort. If you will review the picture of the place it’s so nice and so perfect for a getaway.

When we arrived at the resort, it seems that I am dreaming because whatever I saw on their website is better in real life. hhahaha The place is indeed so perfect!

We stayed in a Beach Villa and here are the pictures:

Our bed

 

There is this day bed that is so perfect for Gareth or Xavier. But since we travel without the kids, we placed our clothes there.

 

The bathroom was located outside and its really big.

 

 

 

 

 

The outdoor shower. I love this specially if I am so tired from my beach swimming.

 

 

The shower

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It is so perfect to stay in the Jacuzzi after a long day at the beach.

 

 

This is our favorite place, we stayed here every afternoon and sleep.

From our Villa, it took us 2 minutes to go to the beach. It is really the best relaxation ever!

I still have my hangover from our Maldives Trip… oh my.. I really can’t get over from the beauty of the place.

Madam Tussauds

In this trip, our goal is to have a relaxing tours, meaning less adventure since we have kids with us. They are not used to any adventure yet, so we carefully select tours that are easy for them. Though it may seems easy but believe me there was chaos and throwing of tantrums. We just have to deal with it and do our best to make this trip as peaceful as possible.

So we decided to visit Madam Tussauds and it was a great, the kids like it at first but eventually got bored, well, we already expected it to happen. Despite of it all, we had a great vacation and so thankful for this wonderful time.

Singapore Flyer

We decided to bring the kids to Singapore Flyer. It is my second time and this time I am more calm, unlike my first time ride. I have fear of heights and so that is the reason. I am always trying to convince myself that it is okay, that the place is safe.

It was a nice experienced with the kids around. I love spending time with them specially every time we travel. I got a chance to know them more.

As long as I live, I want to travel with them. I want to show to them the beauty of traveling. I want to expose them to different cultures because it is the best way toĀ gain knowledge.

Cheers for our more adventures!
