Fully Booked.

All hotels now are mostly fully booked for the holidays. Since we cannot have trips abroad (my husband is still processing his papers), we usually have staycations in hotels during holiday vacation. As we search for hotels to book, most of them are booked as early as now. We already booked one for 2 nights but it is before Christmas. My sister-in-laws' family will join us. It is actually their idea. Me and hubby are looking for a hotel to book after Christmas. Hope we can find one. Do you have plans for the holidays as early as now?

@Nakitakona though we buy gifts earlier, we usually buy most things we like after Christmas because most of them are on sale

It will be a first if we will be able to book on the day itself. But usually it is after Christmas that we book. But we are booked now a few days before Christmas.

It is surprising sometimes how early hotels can book out.

my mother-in-law told us to renew our passports for singapore. but my husband was reluctant because of our two dogs. she then told us that we could have a holiday in some tourist spots in our country but that would be in March or April or May.

That’s true with the online booking we have right now many can book in advanace and will be charged thru credit card when the date is near your booking dates. That really convenient to many as you can anticipate when it will be charged to your credit card. We have already setup our new year since were in the province we booked now since when we check it was the last room already so we took it already.

@rakski I thought we could go somewhere, but finally we are so well at home. It is cold here during the Christmas holiday, our home is well heated we have a fireplace, I am sure we are better at home.
