My Blogs Were Gone

It happened last month when some of my blogs disappeared. I was kind of having a panic that time because I can no longer view and access my  7 blogs. Thanks to the data protection services provided by my hosting company. After calling them and around 30 minutes of waiting,  my blogs were alive again. It was truly a fast and excellent customer service.

I am also thankful to my blogger friend Carlota for always being there to help me when I have troubles in my blogs. You are simply great my friend and I truly appreciate all your help. I am just sad that I did not have the chance to meet you while I am here in the United States. Maybe next time again. It's a small world after all!

Happy Tuesday everyone!

Sightseeing in Stanford, California

First of all,  I would like to thank the lovely ladies from California especially Brianna and  Ate Mary  for  touring us in San Francisco and other places in this area.  Despite of your busy schedules, you still managed to tour us around. I truly appreciate everything. I would say, I truly had wonderful moments with you all.

One of the places we visited in California was Stanford.  Our lovely tour guide brought us to the famous Stanford University.  Inside the university campus, one of the buildings we visited was the Memorial Church. I love the architecture  of this church especially its interior.

Some images I took from the Memorial Church are found below.

 Stanford Memorial Church stands at the center of the campus, and is the University’s architectural crown jewel. It was one of the earliest, and is still among the most prominent, interdenominational churches in the West. Jane Stanford built the church as a memorial to her husband, Leland. Together, Senator and Mrs. Stanford had constructed the University as a memorial to their son, Leland, Jr...http://www.stanford.edu

Shopping for Furniture

Sometimes it is quite difficult to choose furniture and fixtures for our home. If you are an expert, this might be  very easy for you. Good to know that we can already get some ideas and reviews on house and home magazines or maybe in searching online on what is the best furniture  that is the best for our home. Looking for camo baby bedding for mothers is also very easy now. With the help of computer and internet, you can already enjoy shopping at the comfort of your home.

If you are still hesitating  which furniture that  best fit for you and your home, you can consult an expert for that. Good luck!

Travel Snapshots from San Francisco, California

Hey peeps! How are things going on? I don't have many things to say now. First, I am still not feeling well but feeling very better compared to yesterday. Thanks to sister  nurse for the medication. I would  only love to  share some snapshots I took from San Francisco, California. I love that city and wish to go back there again in the future.

How to Find Budget Breaks

For many of us, finding a holiday that’s affordable and within budget is a top priority. Sometimes the hotel, the resort or even your choice of destination can be compromised, so long as the price is right. But how do you find those elusive bargains?

Searching for holidays online is usually the best place to start. It might seem like a minefield, but it often presents the best possible array of choice as well as the cheapest prices. Depending on the website, you can amend your search criteria and try different departure dates, destinations and hotels, then sort by price. This is essential as it presents you with the lowest prices and prevents those cheeky bargains from hiding away further down the list of search results. By sorting by price, you may also notice cheaper holidays in destinations that you hadn’t previously considered.

Tour operators such as Direct Holidays are one of the cheapest - which is partly due to the direct nature of their business which cuts out the agent. But they are also in competition with some of the other big players in the holiday industry, which means they have to offer comparable value for money to stay in business. The best cheap holiday deals at Direct Holidays are usually those last-minute getaways, typically leaving within the next few weeks. You can usually save a significant amount off the original cost of the holiday by booking late. Availability will be limited and you might not get your first choice of resort, hotel or even destination, so it’s best to keep an open mind and be prepared to compromise here or there.

Alternatively you can often find a great deal by booking ahead. Search for holidays leaving six or nine months or even a year in advance, and in most cases you’ll see numerous discounts advertised - plus you’ll have that little bit longer to pay off the cost of the holiday.

Thanks for All Your Birthday Greetings!

It was truly overwhelming. My facebook wall was flooded with birthday greetings and wishes during my natal day. I truly felt special and loved that day. Thanks to all my friends, former classmates, neighbors and family for all your wonderful words.  Thanks to friends for their birthday presents. I am happy with the large plush toys, fossil wallet, nine west bag and other gifts you gave me. Thank also to my dear husband who is  always there for me. Most of all, I am thankful to our dear God for giving me another wonderful year  in  my life. I am hoping for more and more good and bountiful years to come.

Goodnight folks and have a lovely week ahead!

I Love Insel Mainau in Germany

I finally visited Insel Mainau (Mainau Island). This island is famous for its gardens with  lovely flowers of all kinds. It is known as the Blumeninsel of Flower Island. It is an island in Bodensee or Lake Constance. Since I am a number one fan of flowers, I truly fall in love with this place. It made me crazy for a bit seeing all those beauty of nature in the whole island thru the different flowers and trees. Simply amazing!

I told hubby that  it is fine for me to live in this place. I find it a paradise. The long bus ride that we had that time was fully paid-off.  The weather was also perfect. I was quite hot  during our visit  that you need to drink a lot of water when you walk around the island to avoid dehydration.

I love all the flowers  on this island. Insel Mainau is a paradise for me. I love it there.
