Finally we booked the flights to Hongkong and reserved the skycot for Daniel. Unfortunately the price has been gone up £100 each since we looked the airline's website 2 weeks ago. The Oasis, a low-budget airline flying between Britain and Hongkong, was just launched 6 months ago, has already seen the popularity of booking. With this airline,the one-way fare to Hongkong could be as low as £79 and business class for £400. However, we didn't get a deal much cheaper than British Airway. We still ended up paying £750 for 3 of us for a round trip.
Daniel's passport has arrived last Friday through secured delivery, which is a bit surprise to me as it only took one week for us to get the passport since we send off the application. Also, the Child Benefit Claim for Daniel came back a lot quicker than what we expected. The civil services seems not too bad in this country!
January is the month dealing with your financial hangover from Christmas with one hand and booking your Summer Holiday with another hand! With the advertising bombardment of Summer Holidays on all sorts of medias, no wonder we start to panic about what we do this summer! With baby attached, there are not much choice for holiday, the only thing we can think at the moment is camping. So looked Center Parc website, it turned out for a week in Center Parc in the UK is twice more expensive than the Center Parc in mainland Europe. Cheaper to go abroad...

Daniel shouldn't be too difficult during your trip as he is still too little to cause any trouble.
Holiday? What holiday? Since I was pregnant with Isaac, we knew we were not going to have any holidays until kids go to school!
The trouble with holiday when they start schools is that you can't take them out on term time and holiday price normally go up during school holidays...
Yes. That's why we are not planning to take kids on holidays with us either when they are in school. That's where the in laws come handy. :)
A real family holiday will have to wait until kids are old enough to appreciate it.
