travel and the holidays is quite a tedious combination for me.

I could not mylot these passed weeks and may have very little time to on the coming days. I try to get christmas presents for our family and friends here in Davao City now as some local things here are not available in Manila so maybe people would appreciate our gifts more like shawls,pearls,wooden products and Tinalak products. I am almost out the whole day getting these things. I also need to have our house here in Davao cleaned and secured. As I am packing our things...I am very much worried,my husbands's office doesnt have our tickets yet. Since we are in Davao because of my husbands work,they will have to provide our tickets for us to go home to Manila for the holidays. we are requesting for the Dec19 flight. I am quite worried because I called up PAL and December 19 to December 26th are fully booked. Only 4 flights each day. There are 3 airlines,but the office will only get PAL as it is the best. My husbands office is a very big company so they have travel agencies taking care of their employees' plane tickets, but still...the holiday tension is pressing hard on me. Our flight for Hongkong has already been booked,so we shoul be in Manila before the 26th...oh I am so stressed. Plus the kids are asking me to get their gifts for their school xmas parties...my my my. So to every one...to all mylotters...A very Merry Christmas and A Very happy new year...

Yeah. I'm agree with you. Travel and holidays are tedious for me also. I could not prepared well everytime i'm going for my holiday. Since i'm not a good planner, i plan and decide at the last minute. I'm going for my holiday next two weeks from now on. I'm also have to get alot present for my friends and relatives. I didn't prepared anythings for my holiday even though the schedule not plan yet.

When very busy like you are Christmas can be a stressful time but hopefully once a few things are sorted your days will become calmer. Yes, just before Christmas is a very popular time to travel and fares are sky high at that time of the year. Before the 9th December is cheaper and less busy then bookings go crazy. I hope that you will reach Manila on time and have a wonderful time in Hong Kong. Also good luck with your Christmas shopping and sorting out your children's gifts for the school parties. I am flying to Cape Town in January and I have my airline tickets and my train tickets to the airport. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
