Online Booking


Booking a hotel room online is so much convenient. But sometimes it could become a problem too like in the case when I booked the Apple Hotel near Queensbay Mall. When I reached the hotel, they practically had no room for us..

When you book online, you would need to pay immediately by credit card. It could be a problem too when you decide to cancel the booking. It could be a loss..

There was once when I booked through phone, I had breakfast included whereas when I booked online, no breakfast was included..

But just now, when I wanted to book online, the price was so much cheaper. But I booked through phone instead as I prefer to pay by cash and I could cancel anytime I want without any charges..

    normally they offer cheaper rates online, but then cheaper rates means less flexibility..

    i think i would prefer online booking, as you get the proof of booking and i don't have to worry anything about it, since i have all the black and white..

    It depends..if u are sure of the booking, then it's better to book online.

    So buying online is not a wise decision right? Because you might lose it if you cancel...not good at all. :(

    I always book online for hotels and airlines, they have much cheaper rates than going straight to the hotels. Only once I did cancel my booking and there's no charge, full payment are returned as long as it's not one day notice, For that there's a cancellation charge. I usually use Agoda.com for hotel booking.

Twin bananas

Image
Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
