Saving money this Christmas

Christmas is around the corner and we will be going on holidays.  This time we will be heading over to Cebu, Phillipines for a change.

Here are two tips that I have for travelling on a budget. on  a budget.

  1. Book your Ticket online.We are travelling budget as it is a relatively short 3 hour flight. I scrolled through each day to select the best prices for both flight both ways as there were different prices for flying on different days. Flying  midweek or early in the morning are relatively cheaper then weekend and late morning flights.By booking our tickets online we managed to get the best prices and did not have to pay fees to a travel agency.
  2. Plan in AdvanceWe started planning the itenary for our holiday about 1 month ago. I source around for the different places of interest and the best hotel deals so that we were able to get the best value for our budget.

Weekend Reflections-Sitting on ICE

This weekend was lots of fun. The boys  chanced upon this Ice Slide at the atrium  at one of the shopping malls we visited. Ryan’s eyes lit up when he saw the slide. Roy too was extremely interested as he  loves ice and the cold.

We were lucky as there wasn’t a crowd at the mall and the boys didn’t have to wait long to enter the ice arena.  It wasn’t cold at all and they need not put on their jackets to enjoy the ice. However the ice was melting quite fast due to our tropical climate here in Singapore.

The boys  were laughing and enjoying themselves looking and touch the ice sculptures and letting their hands freeze up. It was the first time they have seen such artwork and I’m glad they had the chance to have some fun.

Have you slide down an ice-slide before?
