Hi Friends,
I regret booking that flight on AirAsia! Really my mistake!
This is my first time that I pre-book a flight for next year without the release of public school holidays released for 2013. And oh boy, I got myself into some expensive lesson.
When I counted the first school term holiday, I counted the primary school holiday shall start sometime on 9 March 2013. So happily I booked three tickets to Bangkok on AirAsia. Not exactly super cheap but still alright to us.
Recently I checked MOE website and shocked to find out that the school holiday starts on 16 March 2013 instead. It starts one week later.

China Holidays 2011
Posted by: | CommentsHi Friends,
Remembering my recent trip to Hong Kong in July 2010, I was shocked to find so many tourists in Macau and Hong Kong. Later I realized that whilst July is not a holiday in Singapore, it is actually a school holiday season in China. From this experience, I realized it is actually important to check out the holidays of China if I plan to go to Hong Kong again.
