.
.
howwow-u?!?!
;p
sorry for the lack of update...seriously im sooo slacking in managing my time nowadays...in this case, time for socializing!
;p
i tot i can get back on track...
time well allocated for blogging, blog hopping, facebooking etc...
looks like im getting worst!
must admit that no more tai-tai mode...
huwaaaaaaa!
.
.
nways, this is one of the entry yg i hutang some of u...
.
.
our vacation in new york & florida!!!
i tried my best to be as detail as possible...
hope it helps a way or another
:)
.
.
so here goes!
.
.
our plan to go to new york dah berkurun dah actually...
to be specific, since 2008 lagie...
1st time postpone since my sil pregnant...
2nd time plan in year 2009 pon tak jadi jugak since that time tgh outbreak H1N1...
year 2010 bru la plan menjadi...
itu pon risau jugak for the 2nd wave of H1N1...tp alhamdullillah still under control...
.
.
as usual, we prefer to go for free & easy...
plan sendiri, booking sendiri
;)
this one up to personal liking & preferences la ye...
world of thanx to our puan menteri perlancongan - my beloved sister in law laaaa sape lagie
hehhehe
for bersusah payah plan n survey etc...
mmg confirm boley bukak travel agency k!
hehehe
.
.
we took qatar airways the whole return trip...
depart at 3.45am, 5 days after my birthday (26th november 2010)
transit at doha...travelling time from KL to doha about 8hrs
and from doha to new york (jfk airport) plus another 14hrs!!!
mmg kebas bontot okkkkk!
hahaha
service wise, i still prefer our national carrier MAS...way better service, polite and cleaner cabin
;)
..
for return air fare, do email me should u wanna know more detail k...
qatar offered the cheapest air fare at the time of booking...
so kene la rajin2 survey mase matta fair tue k
.
.
talking about check in baggage...
to note that, for qatar airways baggage allowance bukan 30kg ye!
per passenger is allowed to check in 2 bags with each not to exceed 23kg!!!
hahahhahahha
so u actually have 46kg baggage allowance per person!
;D
best kan!
buttttttttttttttttttt...the total dimension per bag must not exceed 158cm!
(total dimension = length + height + width)
owhhh yg ini mmg sgt menguji kesabaran...
as both mr.doc n me are frequent traveller...so mane2 travel pon hangkut 1 big bag n 2 cabin bags n make up bag...kasi sumbat both of our stuff in one big bag...senang!
takde la nak manage byk sgt bag...plus ladyverde mmg jenis nak travel in style melenggang sokmo...
muahahhaha
that 1 big bag confirm lebih 158cm total dimension!
yg not exceed 158cm nie medium size bag n smaller...
so mmg kalut la mencari bag baru
;p
.
.
all of us mmg travel quite light...
almaklum laaaa shopping list nye, belom sampai new york lagi dah berjela2 panjang
;p
.
.
as said, flight from KL to new york total hours almost 24hrs!!!
so takde makne nye nak bermake up bagai naik flight
:p
*excited mode*
dgn muka tak sudah nak juga ber-camwh*ring while waiting for boarding...
.
.
arrive in doha around 6.30am
i just love this pix!;)
.
.
then depart for new york at 8am and arrive JFK International Airport at 2.15pm...
since we go by free n easy, mmg dah booked transportation and accomodation sendiri...
if u wanna travel to US mmg easy sgt nak cari reliable car hire n accomodation...just google it, bersepah car hire company n hotels / service apartments available...
.
.
so to those yg ade hire car, take the AirTrain then proceed to Federal Circle Station

..
the airport is very systematic...
surely susah nak sesat
hehhee
u can make calls to ur hotel confirming ur arrival or u can even call them for booking if u havent done urs
convenient kan
.
.
as for transportation, we booked a 12 seater ford!
hahahha gabak besar kan!
coz there are 11 of us
;)
so harus la sewa big van...hehehe
for other car rental services, u can check out HERE!.
.
n owh...arrival date same as depart date from malaysia...
so terase agaks lagging skets disitu...
hehehhe
.
.
nways, in new york we stayed at HAMPTON INN, Middletown New York... one obvious reason we choose to stay in middletown coz dekat with the premium outletsssssssssssss!
muahhahaha
what else!?!??!
the main objective for the trip is shop shop shop kan!
so if stay in the city agaks jauh nk travel to the premium outlets...
hehehhe
so asal boley je nak accomodation yg near tempat mengirai!
;D
.
.
room in hampton inn quite decent jugak...
comfy
very homie

and i loveeeeeeeeeeee the breakfast spread!i had waffle every morning!
love it!
trus teringin nak beli waffle maker...konon kat malaysia nt nak buat n makan...tp i cant forsee myself to wake up earlier just to prepare the mixture n all...hahahha
so tak jadi beli
;p
more picture will be uploaded in the facebook...insyaallah
;)
.
.
we checked in that day pon dah kira lewat...
so tak jalan2 sgt malam tue...
just kluar dinner je to the nearest shopping mall, Galleria @ Crystal Run
dekat sangat dlm 5minutes drive je
then balik tido!
penat travelling mmg terasa sangat...
i guess sebab dah "berumur" kot!
muahahhaha
so mmg can feel the tiredness for all that longhaul flights
:(
.
.
ok stop here dulue...
kang sambung panjang berjela plak korang nk read
;p
so day 2 travel lodge will follow suit this afternoon
insyallah
;D
till then
mmmuachs!
