Day 2

Day 2 was reserved for Disneyland. While Ate A wanders around the city, my troops and I went to Disneyland. Yes, it is a dream come true. I am uber sentimental so when I saw the entrace, my eyes became watery. I think no matter how many times you go to Disneyland or wherever it may be, Disneyland will always hold a magical place in one's heart. Dawter T wore her birthday badge and as soon as the staffs saw her, they greeted her a warm happy birthday. They also gave her stickers. (Fast forward, we now have stickers that would last the girls til secondary school... Of course, I am exag!) We took photos near the entrace, the train station as background. Then, we hurried inside because I reminded Pre that characters might be coming out in the city hall area. True enough, Mickey and Minnie were already at the center of the "plaza". Pre lined up while I quickly went to the gift shop to buy the autograph book. Being a scrapbooker, I tend to be a hoarder of all things paper hahah

Day 1

We booked our tickets with Jetstar. I tried to make everything fit our budget. The girls were so excited and so were we. We were not able to eat breakfast... As usual, we were running late. So, Pre said we'll just buy something when we're on board the plane. When checked in with Jetstar, the lady at the counter said. "Maam, you're holding Philippine passport, make sure that you have $700USD." "Huh, why?" "It's the policy" "I've been there before and they have never asked me for show money." At that I was fuming so Pre drew cash and we exchanged it to Hongkong dollars. Still. I was fuming. Kainis. Di man ako makabayan, ayoko talaga naapi tayo. So, off we went to the gate. Picture-picture. Then, at last we boarded the plane. The girls were asking questions about the plane, commenting about it. Pre and I smiled to ourselves. They were cute. It's not their first time but they were too young to remember their first plane ride.

The Night Before

I know that I have to prepare for the trip tomorrow but couldn't help but go to Her World's Project Makeover. I was enticed by the "goodies bag" ~~~ yes, that's what was stated in the email. Project Makeover was sponsored by Her World and Clinique and being a Clinique user, I was hoping to get freebies, lots of 'em! Anyway... I met with my sister's friend L and talked to her about Singapore Citizenship and what she said made me consider it all the more. I think that's for another post. When I came home, the girls' bag were already packed. Only left was my bag and Pre's. So we prepared it and tried to make sure everything's there. We didn't give milk that night to Bebi A because we're bringing the bottles in Hong Kong. I slept at around 1AM. The girls slept after I told them that if they don't wake up, we will leave them behind.

I Am SOOO Excited

for the girls and wished that we're there... For the second time as a family, we're taking a vacation that's not in Philippines. This was my dream last year... And, it's finally coming true... Thank you, Lord!
