Where will you go when your kids have their holiday?

For me, if they have short holiday, Me and my husband will try to bring them to some places where they can play outside. We like to bring them to swimming pool, playing garden or just walking around in the city center and have some nice snack or dinner in the restaurant, which is friendly child restaurant of course. We do like to bring them to the beach. But since we are living far away from beach, we have to do it when they have long holiday at least, so we can stay few night in the hotel which is near the beach. We did it few times last year, but did not do it yet this year.

How about you? Do you have other idea where to bring your small children when their holiday come?

Some of you who is new to this blogging thing must be wondering why people always talk about pagerank. If you want to know definition of pagerank, you can search on Wikipedia.

How to check pagerank of our site or blog?

Very simple there are so many programs or tools that you can use for free to check about the pagerank of your site. Just type in google pagerank you will find what you want.  But for me , I like to do the simple one where you can find your pagerank.

Do you have a plan already for your family holiday this summer?

For you who have small children, going somewhere for a holiday can be fun for your kids, especially if they already went to school for a year this summer holiday will be nice refreshing for them.

Me and my family have plan to go to Asia, to visit my families and friend there. Our plan is about a month holiday ( I wish it can be longer but don’t think I can with few reasons). For this holiday, of course there are so many things that we need to prepare. Especially if you have your own business, which means that we will leave it close for a month or less, since my husband will not stay for a month but a bit shorter.

First important thing is finding ticket which is cheap but have nice or safe flight. We plan to buy it just few weeks before our D day , and hope that we will get reasonable prices for our ticket. Some people said it’s better to book it as soon as possible so we can get cheap prices, others said that we could probably get discount price if we buy ticket few weeks before flying. Get confused a little bit, but I will find it out soon.

But the most important thing is I would like to have the flight which is friendly child. Once I used Singapore Airlines, they really gave good services, also KLM. I don’t know which one I will use for our plan. It’s all depend on the prices of tickets later.

From May 21th until June 1st 2008, there is a big event happening in The Hague also known as Den haag, The Netherlands. The event it self called Pasar Malam Besar. It is an annual event which located in the center of the city.

What is this Pasar Malam Besar all about ?

The Pasar Malam Besar are grand or big multicultural festivals in the Netherlands. The event, almost a half century old, is cultural festival, grant and also food festival, in an archipelago of tents. On the Pasar Malam Besar the mixing of East and West in already its varieties is lived. Indian (eurasiatic) culture, a coalescence of East and West, is of the oldest mixcultures in the world.

For some Indonesian or Malay people, they must be familiar with the name of Pasar Malam. Actually Pasar Malam means Night Market. But this Pasar Malam Besar is open not only in the night but also starting in the morning, around 10 o’clock.

Mostly you can find Indonesian food too in this Pasar Malam. And other thing that you can enjoy in the Pasar Malam is some traditional dances which is coming from Indonesia too, musics, and everything which are related to Indonesia’s cultures.

For some Indonesian people who live in The Netherlands or other European countries nearby, this can be a place to meet or see other Indonesian meanwhile they can taste their traditional food from Indonesia.

Do you know what is the best place in Bangkok to stay, especially for the couple who want to have honeymoon?

My brother will get married on Juli, he asked me if I can help him to find nice hotel in Bangkok with reasonable price for him to stay. He plan to go there for 5 days.

I told him to stay in the city itself since it will make him easy to move around with public transportation in the city such as tuk tuk for example. He don’t want to go on tour package of course, since he want to have free time to arrange his time together with his couple.

I asked him to book hotel online with Mistertur.com.  so he can choose himself which hotel that he want to stay.

I think he will do it, as of now he is busy with that.
