 " A dream is a wish your heart makes, when you're fast asleep."  You bet it is but I'm glad mine came true just recently. I'm a year older last month and I'm blessed to celebrate it somewhere else with my husband and my little girl. Yes, we spent days at Disneyland Anaheim and it was truly magical. Our little escapade started at our bedroom. Look at the picture below. The headboard says it all especially when you turn on the switch. When I saw it, I almost cry and sing with the lovely soft sound coming from it.  Believe me, I have more pictures to share with you. But for now, let me leave you with this marvellous snap of our room for 9 days. 

Traveling constitutes the idea of seeing the other side of the world, enjoying it and making memories every single minute of it especially when you are sharing it with your love ones.  Our recent trip was at Disneyland Park Anaheim, Los Angeles. We thought at first that it was not a good idea for our 32 months old girl. But everything turned to her way. Okay not all rides are for her but there are plenty of good ones that brought flawless smile and laughter in the air. The joy and the excitement grew with every ride and attraction.  Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! Thank you to the gift of technology to capture sceneries that I may not see again and sounds that I may not hear again. We were so delighted that we got every moment using our cameras. (Good thing selfies and groupies are not so awkward nowadays. 😉) And hey, Disneyland now have photographers posted in different beautiful spots to take picture of you and your family and friends. Those shots are uploaded directly to your o

 It was a great privilege for me to see a place that I always dreamed of. Big thanks to my husband who considered giving me a marvellous time all my life.  Words are not enough to describe how I felt the day I step my foot on Disneyland Paris. My whole body is like a overloaded with different harmonic content, full of joy, full of excitement and full of gratefulness. That was year 2010. This year, I am so excited to see    this place that they called "Happiest place on earth" again in City of Angels. What trills me more this time is that we're travelling with our little adventurer. It is going to be a wonderful trip. I really can't wait. :)  Disneyland Paris Thank God for all the provisions and we're praying for safe journey and wonderful time on our next travel. How about you, we're are heading this summer? Paris Trip 2010

Do you love going to zoo? I do and so as my husband and our toddler. Our favourite spots in Dublin Zoo are the African Savanna, Kasiranga Forest Trail, Orangutan Forest and the Reptile House.  In Reptile House,the bearded dragon below is always stealing the spot light every time we go there. Look how he/she posed for the viewer. Little snobbish yet fierce. My husband loves to have one for pet. I am not very sure about that but let us see. Bearded Dragon at Reptile House in Dublin Zoo Dublin Zoo is one big place to roam around in just one day, especially if you intend to observe more than one animal. So at one point, we decided to get an annual pass to visit the animals as often as we want. We live just near by, so it is very convenient for us to go there every now and then.  An Individual Annual Pass costs  €120.00 and a Family Annual Pass costs  €180 . In our case our toddler is under 3 years old so she is free to go. So we just bought the Individual Annual Pass wh

"I know this blog entry has taken a very long time to be posted. Given with so many things that happened over the past four months (which I will not bore you with the details), I hope I am not to late to take you to the place that will surely win your hearts this coming Easter. " In the light of my daughter's recent obsession with animals, visiting a mini farm sounds an awesome idea to end the summer. So off we go... The farm is called Kia Ora Mini Farm. It is located at Courteencurragh, Gorey, Co. Wexford. It was an hour drive from our place. But it was a good relaxing travel for me, my husband and most especially for our little miss. She just don't stopped singing "Old Mac Donalds"until she fell asleep  half way through. We arrived on our destination past 10 o'clock in the morning. After seeing the clean and inviting path to the entrance door, I immediately told myself , "This farm sure look inviting, relaxing and clean.&qu
