Going to LV again

Not to Show Low but to LV coz the other family preferred to visit Show Low in Jan next year where snow is deeper and better for skiing.

Not ready to waste the long weekend, Mr Liow booked us for LV again. Having been there so often, AN is kind of adjusted to the distance even though it takes us about 7 hours to get there and back.

This time, it's another free stay at Bellagio. Again, I wonder, how on earth do they make money by giving away all these free stays?? We've stopped paying for hotel stays in LV since April this year...if only Mr Liow knew he could use his points for stays earlier, we could have had more comfortable stays when our families came, and not have to dig into our pockets.

He is supposed to not have to work tomorrow but coz it was bad weather today, flying schedule was disrupted and they have to go back to work tomorrow to make up for it.

BM will have to stay at Camalot again from tomorrow till Sunday. Camalot is always filled to the 'brim' during holidays like these (thanksgiving, christmas and new year's day). BM almost had nowhere to go but as always, Camalot would try their best to take them in.

Only problem is, when they get busy, BM gets lesser attention. Baileys' tear staining problems since Thanksgiving has yet to resolve (he's never had that bad stains before. It's been almost a month with alternate days of cleaning the tear stains but they can stilll be seen). The last stay last week was better coz it was not one of their peak weeks. Both of them got brushed. I knew coz they informed me that Maen had a matt behind her ears which they combed out, and they told me Maen stained her butt fur which they cleaned up. And the tear stained area on Baileys' muzzle did not look worse.

Off to LA & LV

Mr Liow took leave and wanted to go somewhere but up to the night before he went on leave, we have not decided where to. He wanted to drive down to Montery Bay for the aquarium but I was not too keen coz it would be too long a drive. AN will suffer.

And just the night before he went on leave, AN started sniffing. Her blocked nose in the right nostril started running yesterday once in a while. At other times, that nostril remains blocked.

Mr Liow has to go somewhere, so we decided to just go ahead since AN is ok, except for that nose problem (praying that it will go full blown during the travelling).

We'll be staying at Casaer's Palace this time (free stay again), go shopping, Mr Liow craves for Hor Fun while I crave for authentic bubble tea) and then we'll drive on to LA on Saturday.

He's planned to bring us to Long Beach (I don't know where. Hehe) and then to Knotts Berry Farm so AN gets to take more rides. And then maybe more shopping? Hehe.

Weather has started to remain cold more than cool. The luggage is fuller than it would have been in summer.

I hope Baileys and Maen remain warm in Camalot. They probably will not feel very cold with their coat... I still miss them each time we go on trip. The heartless Mr Liow does not.

This feeling is not mutual between me and the furkids though. We carried them while waiting for Jim to open the door yesterday. Both B and M whined and whined, and struggled to be let down yesterday. They were soooooo eager to get in that if we put them down, they would start scratching at the door.

Jim took Maen in and I put Baileys down. He started the sniffing routine with their resident Golden Retriever. Jim asked Baileys to follow him and he did. My Baileys forgot all about me! Let's not even mention about Maen. Her tail was wagging so hard I wondered if they would come loose.

We might be going to White Mountain during Christmas with the Tays. I hope the cabins allow dogs. They make my Christmas whiter, not only because they are part of the family, but coz their unconditional love gives a glimsp of the reason God sent Jesus that day. Unlike them, God will not get so excited over something else that He forgets about me though. Hehe.
