Both of my husband and I were beyond blessed on the arrival of our baby boy. Honestly to say, we, or should I say me wasn't have any high expectation on this pregnancy at all. Of course both of us wanted to have kid after married for 2 years but I didn't expect I was pregnant when I had 3 confirmed tickets last year. At the end, I had to burn all the confirmed tickets as my gynae said I wasn't fit to travel due to my health condition. Oh well, travel can wait right? </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKnwgdqtV2h4sS1Z2sq-LXM9g4PdKZHqSqbPHzMXzSgmawovuJcQe6P04ApPklilCxUYvpsPpaZ41fqxGiAQIxXw8iypdLZ2LxB2d_Yfl45BDzWmQoPVzCd-wtvqO1lma1IwjyanUBiKxz-iNafGIaWOjYdbJJx6EyO1I6gdfCxB1XOXwtM3quMutKnxU/s2576/IMG_8971.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2576" data-original-width="1932" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKnwgdqtV2h4sS1Z2sq-LXM9g4PdKZHqSqbPHzMXzSgmawovuJcQe6P04ApPklilCxUYvpsPpaZ41fqxGiAQIxXw8iypdLZ2LxB2d_Yfl45BDzWmQoPVzCd-wtvqO1lma1IwjyanUBiKxz-iNafGIaWOjYdbJJx6EyO1I6gdfCxB1XOXwtM3quMutKnxU/w480-h640/IMG_8971.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;">So how's my current life being a newly mom? Intense, struggling, exhausted and lack of sleep - that pretty much sums our life after having our baby. After all, it's not an easy task and indeed a challenging one, especially for new parents just like us. Only for the first month where I was doing my confinement at the post-natal care centre, but right after that, both of us took care of the baby on our own without getting any help or involvement from the both side of our parents. We don't even hire any nanny, maid/helper nor caretaker. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8XaowmEIA1msFJ_soke14eNmEHznvCwy0GEeuKQPyBK6FLP3lC764MK-AYBNLAZSkc9qKsy81XRDPcv5aZs8NfbUVNjIPKCz6U865XJ6PpCl14f50CbNWY4XebbzaCHrFktesP54H4BZRShp0_TtKUKwgWb5bp8pECLXht-OVmtx9jkHbB7RUT11sGGc/s2576/IMG_8972.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1932" data-original-width="2576" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8XaowmEIA1msFJ_soke14eNmEHznvCwy0GEeuKQPyBK6FLP3lC764MK-AYBNLAZSkc9qKsy81XRDPcv5aZs8NfbUVNjIPKCz6U865XJ6PpCl14f50CbNWY4XebbzaCHrFktesP54H4BZRShp0_TtKUKwgWb5bp8pECLXht-OVmtx9jkHbB7RUT11sGGc/w640-h480/IMG_8972.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>The post-natal care centre where I did my confinement for a month</i></div><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Though it's pretty overwhelming and sometimes upsetting, this little "sonshine" does bring boundless of joy and immeasurable happiness to us.

As mentioned in my previous post, Budapest Keleti is the largest transportation joint for railway travel and most of the times I arrived at Budapest Keleti. However, as we're heading to <b>Bratislava</b>, the capital city of Slovakia, the train departs from <b><u><a href="https://www.seat61.com/stations/budapest-nyugati.htm">Budapest Nyugati</a></u></b> as this station serves trains heading north. <br /><br />From where we stayed in Budapest which is pretty near to Budapest Keleti Railway Station, we took public bus to Budapest Nyugati Railway Station which was about 20 minutes ride. We bought the <b>single ticket</b> from the vending machine and it costs HUF350 (approx. to RM4). You can purchase the ticket from the bus driver but the cons are the price of the ticket is higher and there is a possibility that the driver may not have change or may refuse selling you the ticket on board during the peak hour. Hence, it's wise to get the ticket from the nearby vending machine. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUn384qjVsdKUWmeq3xW8y4lRUR8bw3KJ2LMoAQ_cOnXUu9LgAdAO5h2Ca6-DFUaHH-rr3sPQ0McWwthfGJiz6U74AdXEsUQjvb2ApojglPVknXOEYHo8RQw_na9dWabJWPibYsfm36nJpk4WNOWyryx5PA6NpUdRZJvwMAz0uOwe_FVQDQhg0GWWoZY8/s800/2022%20Hungary%20Budapest%20Single%20Ticket.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUn384qjVsdKUWmeq3xW8y4lRUR8bw3KJ2LMoAQ_cOnXUu9LgAdAO5h2Ca6-DFUaHH-rr3sPQ0McWwthfGJiz6U74AdXEsUQjvb2ApojglPVknXOEYHo8RQw_na9dWabJWPibYsfm36nJpk4WNOWyryx5PA6NpUdRZJvwMAz0uOwe_FVQDQhg0GWWoZY8/s16000/2022%20Hungary%20Budapest%20Single%20Ticket.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>#1: It's advisable to purchase the ticket from the vending machine.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>And please remember to validate (stamp/punch) the ticket your ticket once boarding the bus or tram. </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br /></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhelDGrzauBE_JQ0ebqLaBzMRlKL1FQ-J6SpTX-51jA6RM00fKYy78L4xNMF3r1hwNE1eoFFjoHdOjKJ5ZL_PGIAaWkBca0rxT2UyvzDSTcQ0mAYgjaVo27ybT6sZure_hVLDgUT0p4kdXS5zXxTUIlIiURfkce1R0Z6qmchuQeNHssTqC4dqAld_NPLVI/s800/2022%20Hungary%20Budapest-Budapest%20Nyugati%20Train%20Coach.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhelDGrzauBE_JQ0ebqLaBzMRlKL1FQ-J6SpTX-51jA6RM00fKYy78L4xNMF3r1hwNE1eoFFjoHdOjKJ5ZL_PGIAaWkBca0rxT2UyvzDSTcQ0mAYgjaVo27ybT6sZure_hVLDgUT0p4kdXS5zXxTUIlIiURfkce1R0Z6qmchuQeNHssTqC4dqAld_NPLVI/s16000/2022%20Hungary%20Budapest-Budapest%20Nyugati%20Train%20Coach.jpg" /></a></div><i>#2: Opppsss.

As long as you take the usual precautions, such as avoiding walking through the dark alley and always be aware of your surroundings. </div>Diana Diane Teohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07708875417046557399noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3064009879783389985.post-75725553755550135112023-09-30T09:00:00.274+08:002023-09-30T22:20:18.628+08:00Central Europe [Part 9]: Day Trip To Lake Bled From Ljubljana<p> << <b><u><a href="https://dianateo-dt.blogspot.com/2023/09/ljubljana-slovenias-charming-capital.html">Previous Post: Ljubljana, Slovenia's Charming Capital City</a></u></b> <<</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyuoRO4oYhHcp-B-QtH27jRIBvqzH5r9pyehD2iWPnl8lVU7IEW_bkbycavFoywCg0cBBBYfiIIH4MaTWRjO2INEYMNICR5VnLZ1_RloC7wmcef6lyLCFsxOndF9e8tlgyIGFtbCTZst2HgCnZhzEteKFKNcMFRO5jpIKYekoWjN7eMnxsrBBGcYItVK0/s800/2022%20Slovenia%20Lake%20Bled%20Cover.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyuoRO4oYhHcp-B-QtH27jRIBvqzH5r9pyehD2iWPnl8lVU7IEW_bkbycavFoywCg0cBBBYfiIIH4MaTWRjO2INEYMNICR5VnLZ1_RloC7wmcef6lyLCFsxOndF9e8tlgyIGFtbCTZst2HgCnZhzEteKFKNcMFRO5jpIKYekoWjN7eMnxsrBBGcYItVK0/s16000/2022%20Slovenia%20Lake%20Bled%20Cover.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">The primary reason why I want to visit Slovenia so much is due to this magical and remarkable <b>Lake Bled</b>. It's becoming more popular and well-known lately that you will spot the beauty of this emerald-green lake with picture-postcard church sits on the tiny island appeared on almost all social media, travel brochures, magazines and more. Therefore, it's such a shame if your trip to Slovenia is incomplete without a visit to Lake Bled. <br /><br /><br /><b><span style="font-size: large;">DAY TRIP TO LAKE BLED FROM LJUBLJANA </span></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span><span style="text-align: justify;">Initially, I was planning for one-night stay in Lake Bled but I found out there's nothing much to do around the lake during night time. Moreover, it's doable to do a day trip from Ljubljana to Lake Bled. And that's explain why we stayed in Ljubljana for two nights. </span></span></div><span style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Getting to Lake Bled from Ljubljana is pretty simple and easy. You can either opt for bus or train and we chosen to travel via bus instead. Both Ljubljana railway and bus station are located next to each other at the north side of the city center. Buses depart at least hourly from Ljubljana and the bus ride will take a mere 1.5 hours. The reason why we don't opt for the train is because Bled Railway Station located 5km away from the lake and you need to get another bus or taxi to reach the lake. </div></span><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHQoxLL1qaaKvHPe7DgV3hnNMSfzVG2dWcWVQEcSso5N3c7fDQtlml63oVYtbPyZ7EcyackE-_uXApBKv0RnXjkpbO_FUH1GQdr6SuBFstJ7CUUfKrbDJFlf-ETIHMUiuUUwLS1XUiv0iAFWWZhCjQ9WPPph0DpIXfJwYqAcKaGm9v-9XUMDdfIl6j5pI/s800/2022%20Slovenia%20Ljubljana%20Bus%20Station.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHQoxLL1qaaKvHPe7DgV3hnNMSfzVG2dWcWVQEcSso5N3c7fDQtlml63oVYtbPyZ7EcyackE-_uXApBKv0RnXjkpbO_FUH1GQdr6SuBFstJ7CUUfKrbDJFlf-ETIHMUiuUUwLS1XUiv0iAFWWZhCjQ9WPPph0DpIXfJwYqAcKaGm9v-9XUMDdfIl6j5pI/s16000/2022%20Slovenia%20Ljubljana%20Bus%20Station.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>#1: Taking bus from Ljubljana to Lake Bled </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdfZ0bB2QY4PUOj84To7K0ime4_7mRMJyKlbpd5wCy4u-DmXvNAEQdZhlZmpa-8dypPG-8FpC_60Ef_fjwo7S7twR3ExwgA5WhpK4T7l5s3J7DymiqQOEWJu9Yz_Ho2f3VRNzNczXd5Txy7MjrQ1YURSSaFaZil7UZJ2ph04fMCIQn4S7tOXHQwR_17WA/s800/2022%20Slovenia%20Ljubljana%20Bus%20Station%201.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="566" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdfZ0bB2QY4PUOj84To7K0ime4_7mRMJyKlbpd5wCy4u-DmXvNAEQdZhlZmpa-8dypPG-8FpC_60Ef_fjwo7S7twR3ExwgA5WhpK4T7l5s3J7DymiqQOEWJu9Yz_Ho2f3VRNzNczXd5Txy7MjrQ1YURSSaFaZil7UZJ2ph04fMCIQn4S7tOXHQwR_17WA/s16000/2022%20Slovenia%20Ljubljana%20Bus%20Station%201.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>#2: Make sure to buy the bus tickets at the station first, before boarding the bus. </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>And they accept cash only. </i></div></div><div><br /></div><div><b><span style="font-size: large;">ARRIVAL AT BLED</span></b><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">If you are planning to hike up to the viewpoint in order to get best view of Lake Bled, I wouldn't recommend to alight at Bled main bus station.

Spending two days are totally insufficient.</div>Diana Diane Teohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07708875417046557399noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3064009879783389985.post-9535968249633799322023-09-15T09:00:00.147+08:002023-09-15T09:00:00.154+08:00Shangri-La Rasa Ria, Kota Kinabalu & Kozan Teppan-Yaki <div style="text-align: justify;">For your information, there are two Shangri-La Resorts in Sabah; which are Shangri-La Tanjung Aru and Shangri-La Rasa Ria. </div>Previously, I blogged about <b><u><a href="https://dianateo-dt.blogspot.com/2023/02/shangri-la-tanjung-aru-kota-kinabalu.html">Shangri-La Tanjung Aru, Kota Kinabalu</a></u></b>.<div>For this post, I will share about my experience staying in <b><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Shangri-La Rasa Ria Kota Kinabalu</span></b>.</div><div> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrioSetXQ-2J2gbnfA5OVoc8GV7uNgoS-6uRMekz8D31PiEPcjOsyraPtvHral42YtmhqzgMdABpLhHv-gNzQsf41VGuZ7muFEmtIhTc70_HdqTMWpFMOmK0hXuPRaf40mXgb6RO4VFFr9Rj07ZX-ioxUiZWVAYJy_CUHvfsBhHLQ_ks3AwlQAYvFQ/s800/Shangri-La%20Rasa%20Ria%20Kota%20Kinabalu%20Cover.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="566" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrioSetXQ-2J2gbnfA5OVoc8GV7uNgoS-6uRMekz8D31PiEPcjOsyraPtvHral42YtmhqzgMdABpLhHv-gNzQsf41VGuZ7muFEmtIhTc70_HdqTMWpFMOmK0hXuPRaf40mXgb6RO4VFFr9Rj07ZX-ioxUiZWVAYJy_CUHvfsBhHLQ_ks3AwlQAYvFQ/s16000/Shangri-La%20Rasa%20Ria%20Kota%20Kinabalu%20Cover.jpg" /></a><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Talking about location, Shangri-La Rasa Ria is situated nearly an hour from Kota Kinabalu International Airport. So, either you need to do early arrangement with the hotel for the pick-up, or taking Grab (approx. RM60-70 per way) or perhaps, you can consider to rent car from a reliable and trustworthy car rental such as <b><u><a href="https://web.facebook.com/miraitravelsdnbhd?_rdc=1&_rdr">Mirai Travel</a></u></b>. Despite the location which it's quite distance away from the city centre, this hotel is absolutely the perfect spot for you to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and take this moment to unwind your body, soul and mind. <br /><br /><br /><b><span style="font-size: large;">GARDEN WING & OCEAN WING</span></b><br />With just shy of 500 rooms and suites, Shangri-La Rasa Ria is split into two distinctive wings - the Garden Wing and Ocean Wing. Both wings have their own gracious lobby for the guests to do check-in and there are plenty of spacious parking lots too. <br /><br />So which is better?<br />Rooms in Garden Wing are popular among the family, especially with small children as the children's facilities are more closer, such as kids club, swimming pool with slides and an outdoor playground. Whereas for the rooms in Ocean Wing, each and every room has its own oversized outdoor bathtub built at the private balcony. Because we don't have any lil kid and the outdoor bathtub looks pretty inviting, hence we chosen to stay in the Ocean Wing. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgColfc5j4ISKWa1smh9F_KDrPAnc8YztNGuCi0qvLqNzomGQO4UQsZAKBd6iqXSozqx8s_pPeQIKSRd4X_-nfkX6qpyAWMNAyQm3o-a2gEthGZZE_e6PWvs5mVweOrrHK2N4mXPuBMp0UiZzJgnLV3luPOyVWUNg23y0XaZp0znkqma3iLl8SfxC-h4EI/s800/Shangri-La%20Rasa%20Ria%20Kota%20Kinabalu%2001%20Garden%20Wing.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgColfc5j4ISKWa1smh9F_KDrPAnc8YztNGuCi0qvLqNzomGQO4UQsZAKBd6iqXSozqx8s_pPeQIKSRd4X_-nfkX6qpyAWMNAyQm3o-a2gEthGZZE_e6PWvs5mVweOrrHK2N4mXPuBMp0UiZzJgnLV3luPOyVWUNg23y0XaZp0znkqma3iLl8SfxC-h4EI/s16000/Shangri-La%20Rasa%20Ria%20Kota%20Kinabalu%2001%20Garden%20Wing.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>#1: Garden Wing - Perfect for family with children </i></div></div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9i7nc6kSyxDV-7TcAMkE_nbLZeUlSp_GDI6OrhSfH9U32ijSHKOxmE2czRH-xFjB-usxVuhhOhBN61QQLqFcb1Vi6HoQShxF7mQgFwGYWPFWzo5A2qYBUbzoPYtWq39q0xMiGECs8mDPOGOClNi7Tw_7vbUj4liZ1W5BSmg-mvmi7c9t_gh-aRo7aqSo/s800/Shangri-La%20Rasa%20Ria%20Kota%20Kinabalu%2002%20Ocean%20Wing.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9i7nc6kSyxDV-7TcAMkE_nbLZeUlSp_GDI6OrhSfH9U32ijSHKOxmE2czRH-xFjB-usxVuhhOhBN61QQLqFcb1Vi6HoQShxF7mQgFwGYWPFWzo5A2qYBUbzoPYtWq39q0xMiGECs8mDPOGOClNi7Tw_7vbUj4liZ1W5BSmg-mvmi7c9t_gh-aRo7aqSo/s16000/Shangri-La%20Rasa%20Ria%20Kota%20Kinabalu%2002%20Ocean%20Wing.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>#2: Ocean Wing </i></div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b><span style="font-size: large;">OCEAN WING JUNIOR SUITE SEAVIEW KING ROOM</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Right after we parked our car, we went to the open-air lobby at the Ocean Wing building.

And I managed to tick off another city of Austria which is <b>Innsbruck</b>. This has been one of my wishlists. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><u><span style="font-size: large;">FROM SALZBURG TO INNSBRUCK </span></u></b></div><div>We chosen Salzburg as our base as the journey to Innsbruck takes nearly 2 hours via train. </div><div><br /></div><div><b><span style="font-size: medium;">SWAROVSKI KRISTALLWELTEN</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">One of the main reasons why Innsbruck is in my wishlist is because of <b>Swarovski Crystal World museum (Swarovski Kristallwelten)</b>. Saw few of my friends had been to this place and immediately added into my travel bucket list. However, this crystal museum is not situated in the city centre of Innsbruck and you either need to take shuttle bus or take another train ride. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Opening Hours: 9am to 7pm (Last entry is 6pm)</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Admission Fee: You can check out the latest fee <b><u><a href="https://kristallwelten.swarovski.com/Content.Node/wattens/Visitor_information.en.html">here</a></u></b>.

Unfortunately, on the first day when we arrived in Hallstatt, we didn't realise it's Austria's National Day and the one and only supermarket in Hallstatt was closed. Just imagine that how excited I was when I saw the kitchen in our stay and I was about ready to cook turned to sadness and disappointment. Ended up, we just cooked whatever we brought from Malaysia such as Maggi instant noodle (Asam laksa is our fav), instant mushroom soup and Japanese curry paste. Luckily also, we managed to buy a box of rice in Munich before travelling to Hallstatt. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLXZi2guGveY0mXUIJXY2NzG8ExKQGXc9fyIc9zFoCTQa83yAy4ixihBvbW1cpycjr4ynliI9IlWj0GrAGi4JfY11Ox2J3HBm_Qp_CAJ9L-LFkpeDoDG70H0OSukc2AzFn-BXhw7YTyuQ_mXHpRyMwtp2TXVxqztMxaz6KVCQZ2cCK9X8n_b1Tja8kmfY/s800/2022%20Austria%20Hallstatt%20Cooking%20Meals%20-%20Day%201%20Lunch%20&%20Dinner.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="566" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLXZi2guGveY0mXUIJXY2NzG8ExKQGXc9fyIc9zFoCTQa83yAy4ixihBvbW1cpycjr4ynliI9IlWj0GrAGi4JfY11Ox2J3HBm_Qp_CAJ9L-LFkpeDoDG70H0OSukc2AzFn-BXhw7YTyuQ_mXHpRyMwtp2TXVxqztMxaz6KVCQZ2cCK9X8n_b1Tja8kmfY/s16000/2022%20Austria%20Hallstatt%20Cooking%20Meals%20-%20Day%201%20Lunch%20&%20Dinner.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>#18: Our lunch and dinner on the first day in Hallstatt </i></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Thank goodness on the second day in Hallstatt, the supermarket was opened.

This had always been on my travel wishlist for years where this fairytale castle was believed to inspire Walt Disney to build Sleeping Beauty Castle. </div><p></p><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">HOW TO GET TO NEUSCHWANSTEIN CASTLE FROM MUNICH </span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">As usual, both my husband and I always woke up early to kick off our day. We prefer to start our day earlier and end our day earlier too. At least to avoid the crowd, if possible. For your information, there is no direct connection by train departing from Munich to Neuschwanstein Castle. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">1) First, take train from <b><span style="color: #990000;">Munich Hauptbahnhof (München Hbf) to Füssen</span></b> which takes roughly two hours. Because we have Eurail Global Pass, so this train ride is covered under this pass. </div><div style="text-align: justify;">2) After arriving in Füssen, take <b><span style="color: #990000;">Bus 73 or 78</span></b> to the village Hohenschwangauof. The bus stop of this bus ride is just right opposite of the train station. It's a short ride where it takes under 10 minutes and it costs €5.20 for a round trip. You pay directly to the driver during boarding. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7iezW53SecIwARbMV2NH7JMTzTLcAvAmFKOeiEly0adTw55VXzBPW8zlIQcGj6UkaAYNsEsnDnTfTV-8yCivf5td_bSpfIBj2TN6ABsu-wZniGqHc9kXk6tjfuk7Wt1NJwIrlHG8eV9BA1K_yXqYOte74U-7Svom4P7wsxEkXp2fvo1-me6tR_tig/s800/2022%20Germany%20Train%20Munich%20HBF%20to%20F%C3%BCssen.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7iezW53SecIwARbMV2NH7JMTzTLcAvAmFKOeiEly0adTw55VXzBPW8zlIQcGj6UkaAYNsEsnDnTfTV-8yCivf5td_bSpfIBj2TN6ABsu-wZniGqHc9kXk6tjfuk7Wt1NJwIrlHG8eV9BA1K_yXqYOte74U-7Svom4P7wsxEkXp2fvo1-me6tR_tig/s16000/2022%20Germany%20Train%20Munich%20HBF%20to%20F%C3%BCssen.jpg" /></a></div>#1: <span style="text-align: justify;">Take train from </span><span style="text-align: justify;"><span>Munich Hauptbahnhof (München Hbf) to Füssen</span></span><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #990000;"><b><br /></b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge7xGsg8PU4j85uyS_OoouHEnboN_HHWWMgvNc1RsLc-pQh_Ze-GZhy8DkV50tXE6E2wVGe6mPiliphy6q-D7_kzrjWN1ncoqGLWLQnb5QJXJLE67uL7gRxq9ewNmjUpMuVtI6UeptzpuSwxzf-GFhotu5hHmplmox2Sd8lezyV3ehsAV7DZUSbvaF/s800/2022%20Germany%20F%C3%BCssen%20HBF%20&%20Bus%2078.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="566" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge7xGsg8PU4j85uyS_OoouHEnboN_HHWWMgvNc1RsLc-pQh_Ze-GZhy8DkV50tXE6E2wVGe6mPiliphy6q-D7_kzrjWN1ncoqGLWLQnb5QJXJLE67uL7gRxq9ewNmjUpMuVtI6UeptzpuSwxzf-GFhotu5hHmplmox2Sd8lezyV3ehsAV7DZUSbvaF/s16000/2022%20Germany%20F%C3%BCssen%20HBF%20&%20Bus%2078.jpg" /></a></div>#2: Hop on <span style="text-align: justify;"><span>Bus 73 or 78</span></span><span style="text-align: justify;"> to the village Hohenschwangauof </span></div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiG5Lx9qZ9QbdWNzyPr6z0tFMNYq1JV1XNvsmc_lhM2BDtgr0GU8DzulbriN3GbYvg-Mjp4UBWfR5VGUxDMF5LRBfE9zC4qLIN0rbIOICdp9jgbvPIA-w21q2Wm7TE0x358IkymO9CzainQg1HqGXWIF3olgFxDJVwsfPluGYzn5hp0EdT4TEo5TIReRwc/s800/2022%20Germany%20Neuschwanstein%20Castle%20Ticket%20Center.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiG5Lx9qZ9QbdWNzyPr6z0tFMNYq1JV1XNvsmc_lhM2BDtgr0GU8DzulbriN3GbYvg-Mjp4UBWfR5VGUxDMF5LRBfE9zC4qLIN0rbIOICdp9jgbvPIA-w21q2Wm7TE0x358IkymO9CzainQg1HqGXWIF3olgFxDJVwsfPluGYzn5hp0EdT4TEo5TIReRwc/s16000/2022%20Germany%20Neuschwanstein%20Castle%20Ticket%20Center.jpg" /></a></div>#3: Once arrive in Information Point of <span style="text-align: justify;">Hohenschwangauof (this is where the bus will stop), walk for at least 3 minutes towards the Ticket Centre. </span></div><div><span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: justify;">Initially we did try our luck to buy the tickets online in advance from their official website <b><u><a href="https://www.hohenschwangau.de/en/tours-tickets/official-tickets">here</a></u></b> but somehow, it was sold out. Luckily both of us didn't give up and try our luck by walk-in at the Ticket Centre. Guess what! We're so happy when they told us there were few available tickets left. That's the advantage of waking up and reach the place earlier. Definitely worth it! The admission fee of Neuschwanstein Castle for an adult is €15 and do take note it's guided tour. Make sure to reach the castle at least 10-15 minutes earlier before your time slot. </div></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">In case you are wondering, Neuschwanstein Castle is actually sits above the village of Hohenschwangauof.

Surprisingly, one of the main attractions of this English Garden is the wooden <b>Chinese pagoda</b> which has over two hundred years history. Unfortunately during our visit, the pagoda was under construction. You won't find any Chinese food or restaurant here but it's well-known to be one of the biggest Bavarian biergartens where it can accommodates 7,000 people at a time. Besides serving the famous Hofbräu beer, they do serve typical German food such as grilled sausages, pork, potatoes pretzels and more. Though Octoberfest was over by the time we're in Munich, but still we can feel the vibe there. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNzsmtvdA9r1FRXvlI42lZg2p-Wr4APnFGtA8wktumQ5cZrkJv7KvfA8Pp73Ylyz_yyizU6eyAOs71NpiGDU3fMXlWs_Okqdq7oy_QQ9cgBBYZPcs0ItEANjp3iOkGSaEa0RotV9Vqk3KaE9regWisjCmb7x5qEhHuBml9KvtyeQxaJhnRM9AFRs3W/s800/2022%20Germany%20Munich%20English%20Garden%202.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNzsmtvdA9r1FRXvlI42lZg2p-Wr4APnFGtA8wktumQ5cZrkJv7KvfA8Pp73Ylyz_yyizU6eyAOs71NpiGDU3fMXlWs_Okqdq7oy_QQ9cgBBYZPcs0ItEANjp3iOkGSaEa0RotV9Vqk3KaE9regWisjCmb7x5qEhHuBml9KvtyeQxaJhnRM9AFRs3W/s16000/2022%20Germany%20Munich%20English%20Garden%202.jpg" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><b>4) Marienplatz (including Old Town Hall and New Town Hall) </b></div><div>Nearest station is <b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Marienplatz</span> </b>station under S1, S2, S4 and S8 S-Bahn line</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLu7KiZfGjqg_CCQnLFAnEuUtgEPYGFKGPIrFlo7hG1MVfA81FURZyw5a1pBdHNEfLj9-UmU6bhgsAM6zdtdwGsHqCUy7v-w87XiS6Wx90Ab3USHOGfqZsfso3rjtskKy5fL1gY20TLeMmiZHP4RxL6aHznUmwdZwDJ-VlSq_i2CaSsK52CgF_nitb/s800/2022%20Germany%20Munich%20Marienplatz%201.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLu7KiZfGjqg_CCQnLFAnEuUtgEPYGFKGPIrFlo7hG1MVfA81FURZyw5a1pBdHNEfLj9-UmU6bhgsAM6zdtdwGsHqCUy7v-w87XiS6Wx90Ab3USHOGfqZsfso3rjtskKy5fL1gY20TLeMmiZHP4RxL6aHznUmwdZwDJ-VlSq_i2CaSsK52CgF_nitb/s16000/2022%20Germany%20Munich%20Marienplatz%201.jpg" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>Do check out <b>Rathaus-Glockenspeil</b>, Munich's lauded cuckoo clock that chimes and performs at 11am, 12pm and 5pm everyday (except during the winter time).

So if you are looking for most comprehensive itinerary for trip to Cameron Highlands, sorry guys to let you down as this post might not be the one. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />The first tea plantation we dropby is <b>Cameron Valley Tea House</b>. Apparently there are three tea houses but because we're pretty lucky to find parking in Tea House 1, hence we decided to have our brunch there. Tea House (TH) 1 and 2 sit along the way from Ringlet to Tanah Rata whereas Tea House 3 sits Kuala Terla. TH 1 has less parking than TH2 but it's less crowded at the open aired cafe. In case you unable to find parking in TH1, you can continue to drive to TH2 which is less than 5 minutes drive away. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Furthermore, I would like to experience staying in the English cottage house. <br /><br />My advise? If possible, try to avoid going to Cameron Highlands during the weekend or even public holiday cause the traffic jams are seriously terrible. And if you are planning to overnight in Cameron Highlands, do bring along thick jacket cause we're underestimated with the weather during the night time. We didn't expect it can be as low as 16 degrees.

Since my husband went to diving and so, I departed back to Semporna town by myself with the speedboat arranged by the resort. The speedboat was scheduled to depart from the resort at 1.30pm, right after we had the scrumptious lunch. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">In Semporna, we'll be staying there for 3 nights. Sounds pretty long, right? This is because my husband was planning to dive for 2 days and on our second final day, both of us will do island hopping. While my husband went for diving, most of the times I just spent most of my time by staying in the room. Luckily, I did bring my laptop with me. Luckily also, there was a TV inside the room for me to kill the time. <br /><br /><b><span style="font-size: large;">SEMPORNA ISLAND HOPPING</span></b> <br />If there is one thing you must do when in Semporna, it will definitely be the island hopping. Or else, your trip to Semporna is totally pointless cause Semporna is well-known for its abundance of beautiful and mesmerising islands as well as postcard-perfect scenery and endless crystal clear seawaters. <br /><br />Generally, these island hopping day trips will visit at least 2 to 3 islands or snorkelling spot. The most popular would be:<br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;"></p><ul><li>Mataking / Pom-Pom / Timba-Timba</li><li>Sibuan / Mantabuan / Bohey Dulang <br /></li></ul><div style="text-align: justify;">We chosen the latter option mainly due to Bohey Dulang which is currently the most popular spot in Semporna. We booked this island hopping day trip from <b><u><a href="https://www.instagram.com/uncle_chang_sipadan/?hl=en">Uncle Chang</a></u></b> which includes boat transfer, lunch, jetty fee, marine park fee, guide fee as well as life jacket and snorkeling equipment. </div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3lahlVlp7UWuShJaVsQj7yEUqP3HPk_crG_MDeseCbsl7bluRi4ybx3Dc2CFISgVGXGTwPWpUuMW4vJCg3jEoFZWPRAmQPlWbMu8Zwlm8IOqEM7c2l4RuHdNS7cQMK_Z0z1pnKuIDSXeI0h3zAkA_Gfk8FgQMhdfjXeRfG1LUvI0fSByUkTZIR1ky/s800/Semporna%2001.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3lahlVlp7UWuShJaVsQj7yEUqP3HPk_crG_MDeseCbsl7bluRi4ybx3Dc2CFISgVGXGTwPWpUuMW4vJCg3jEoFZWPRAmQPlWbMu8Zwlm8IOqEM7c2l4RuHdNS7cQMK_Z0z1pnKuIDSXeI0h3zAkA_Gfk8FgQMhdfjXeRfG1LUvI0fSByUkTZIR1ky/s16000/Semporna%2001.jpg" /></a></div><div>#1</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Our island hopping day tour began around 8-9am with the pick-up from Semporna Jetty.

We're absolutely been blessed and grateful for the good weather cause my husband told me that this is his third trip here as the previous two trips, he unable to hike due to the adverse weather. Once it's raining a day before, the gate will be closed for all the visitors to hike up. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Before we're allowed to climb, we need to register ourselves first at the counter. There are public toilets available before the hike and it's advisable to bring along and wear appropriate and suitable footwear, at least the type that cover your toes. Otherwise, you can rent a rubber shoe for RM5. I personally think the 650m hike up to the submit was indeed pretty challenging and there were some areas were quite steep, but when you're finally reach up to the top, it's definitely worth every of your effort and sweat too. </div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Since we did our trip to <b><u><a href="https://dianateo-dt.blogspot.com/2019/08/things-we-do-see-eat-for-3d2n-sandakan.html">Sandakan</a></u></b>, thus for this round we plan our trip to Tawau and Semporna.

So the faster and convenient way is by taking flight from Kota Kinabalu to Tawau with Malaysia Airlines or AirAsia. </div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgD6slfxXXwl_9nPEU-RbeepFUvZGFk13JN1g4Vy2GNMig4-due3kcXdpHL5XCZKFE8mExTOkHclDjoIOH9NGKDcrFd4cYnyoJ4bP8mum98I9hEMhM9DeIfKWVetCLlwyVnHzCIaqcNpj4eAVOKTAVoQKTZ93MIcoHBLiFbLNQYkLP2OjHK3bNBOXxr/s800/Kota%20Kinabalu%20International%20Airport.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="566" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgD6slfxXXwl_9nPEU-RbeepFUvZGFk13JN1g4Vy2GNMig4-due3kcXdpHL5XCZKFE8mExTOkHclDjoIOH9NGKDcrFd4cYnyoJ4bP8mum98I9hEMhM9DeIfKWVetCLlwyVnHzCIaqcNpj4eAVOKTAVoQKTZ93MIcoHBLiFbLNQYkLP2OjHK3bNBOXxr/s16000/Kota%20Kinabalu%20International%20Airport.jpg" /></a><br />#1: Finally my backpack is out from the storeroom after storing for almost two years due to the pandemic. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK1lN6xQ5IjmlOVGTtmm873KgTA96U8X1a2vEdZQwvLN9NUyq77-0VCHygdOvZpp2ci-4nRLXV7XnIJ2tecOQ0kPprmmSdlIFEuS1cy-Hf7waQUqtnRSOO28HTsuX-N-Rlq9HKwO50-2Mvk14G1zm1Qvw1PAqccLd8TAvqv7JXkWSccreMBGjIMZe9/s800/Kota%20Kinabalu%20Aerial%20View.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="600" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK1lN6xQ5IjmlOVGTtmm873KgTA96U8X1a2vEdZQwvLN9NUyq77-0VCHygdOvZpp2ci-4nRLXV7XnIJ2tecOQ0kPprmmSdlIFEuS1cy-Hf7waQUqtnRSOO28HTsuX-N-Rlq9HKwO50-2Mvk14G1zm1Qvw1PAqccLd8TAvqv7JXkWSccreMBGjIMZe9/w480-h640/Kota%20Kinabalu%20Aerial%20View.jpg" width="480" /></a><br />#2: Always my favourite aerial view <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnc_BZU9OMoPnJshVoNGplp4RgsqJ1dFN4oid-1zUcC4ydNCP0dROFvvhutStEt1HD9x9YOmZeUu-U8QkJqAxtb4GRWXGtjaUAfA8TJg7Z6UC4gRIkb1x-AyIfn9WFosBbMvCM7L-AHktmArotvYIL2KLz0FWGFbQUmBShxp6NOO5DFPSSW4Kilq1P/s800/Tawau%20Airport.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnc_BZU9OMoPnJshVoNGplp4RgsqJ1dFN4oid-1zUcC4ydNCP0dROFvvhutStEt1HD9x9YOmZeUu-U8QkJqAxtb4GRWXGtjaUAfA8TJg7Z6UC4gRIkb1x-AyIfn9WFosBbMvCM7L-AHktmArotvYIL2KLz0FWGFbQUmBShxp6NOO5DFPSSW4Kilq1P/s16000/Tawau%20Airport.jpg" /></a></div>#3: The flight duration from Kota Kinabalu to Tawau takes nearly an hour. </div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Upon reaching Tawau Airport, it need at least another an hour and a half drive to Semporna town. Due to RMCO, there was no direct bus services running between Tawau and Semporna and therefore, we opted for Grab which cost us RM100-110. </div><div><br /><br /></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><b>CHECK-IN SIPADAN-KAPALAI DIVE RESORT</b></span></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;">By the way, this is not my first time to Tawau and Semporna but my trip there was like more than 10 years ago. And since we will be returning there again, I was thinking why don't we splurge a little bit by staying in <b>Sipadan-Kapalai Dive Resort</b> as they were doing special promotion for Sabahan only at that period of time. Keep seeing the photos of this luxury water village all over the social medias and this making me more excited and thrilled to experience it. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0N59ewIourH_Ngcr7AhozxAtAKUXHzvuK0zq0glZflgraDfGSE1pVuXyMhhtw_TnaxycgSngXoo98euNYWPyItpK3bDf5iREYQe4554VQGjjNmm8F2TWy2tsARWp2rt3ZdbIGBmb5sXMjY86XIOX5rmMIyOVIrMysn3S1gE7AvO5Z4InwWvHxmOdW/s4602/Sipadan-Kapalai%20Dive%20Resort%2001.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4602" data-original-width="3452" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0N59ewIourH_Ngcr7AhozxAtAKUXHzvuK0zq0glZflgraDfGSE1pVuXyMhhtw_TnaxycgSngXoo98euNYWPyItpK3bDf5iREYQe4554VQGjjNmm8F2TWy2tsARWp2rt3ZdbIGBmb5sXMjY86XIOX5rmMIyOVIrMysn3S1gE7AvO5Z4InwWvHxmOdW/w480-h640/Sipadan-Kapalai%20Dive%20Resort%2001.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">#4: Check-in process for Sipadan-Kapalai Dive Resort at Semporna Jetty, not at the resort </div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Thank goodness, we managed to arrive at Semporna Jetty 15 minutes earlier before the speedboat depart to the resort at 10.30am.

Due to there's no airport within the nation, hence it's an ideal way of planning a trip to this Europe's fourth-smallest country from Zurich since it's easily accessible and the journey takes around an hour and a half. </div><p></p><div><br /></div><div><b><span style="font-size: medium;">HOW TO GET TO VADUZ OF LIECHTENSTEIN FROM ZURICH</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">For your information, there is no direct train service from Switzerland to Liechtenstein. Therefore, you need to catch <b>a train from Zurich HB to Sargans</b>, and then continue by catching the bright yellow-coloured <b>bus 11</b> (heading Feldkirch) or <b>bus 12E</b> (heading Vaduz) in order to get to Liechtenstein. If you are travelling with Swiss Travel Pass, this route is fully covered including the public buses in Liechtenstein. Without the pass, one-way bus ride costs CHF8 per passenger and this can be paid directly to the bus driver. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">By the way, there are no border controls between Switzerland and Liechtenstein. However, if you are interested to collect and add additional passport stamps just like me, don't forget to bring along your passport as you can get an authentic Liechtenstein entry stamp from Vaduz Tourism office for CHF3. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvGAhtM2Ub7WswrPie43puSuqjtWlcZ0ygJSs7rkSyvd5L0G9pvK7PO9ddOUq2_tkInjg0iyUjpem4ISfOyHRjjEKc9mPxAYtkm3n0OmmkX1oiqhnEkyIvPzLfdJrDRE-J4_WBRzgXjczClsUTEJGnfHzfd9QUEKd2sHRARuAJQn2h7eOCagnVcP9c/s800/2022%20Switzerland%20Zurich%20Sargans%20Train%20Station%201.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvGAhtM2Ub7WswrPie43puSuqjtWlcZ0ygJSs7rkSyvd5L0G9pvK7PO9ddOUq2_tkInjg0iyUjpem4ISfOyHRjjEKc9mPxAYtkm3n0OmmkX1oiqhnEkyIvPzLfdJrDRE-J4_WBRzgXjczClsUTEJGnfHzfd9QUEKd2sHRARuAJQn2h7eOCagnVcP9c/s16000/2022%20Switzerland%20Zurich%20Sargans%20Train%20Station%201.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">#1: Catching the train from Zurich HB to Sargans </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKHUueamLIvEmrA-pFtS8GTdLb8332SRu9djERV3mWzFvH9xdo9urSWZbSKlNP-GN-5bC5pse4qK9QqJRHmqenPRYcCxDM1CMvOfgmfO8owdleWmsiTpviKI4JYNC4xrY2mpuA_ie47oWeUpUGRN0Q0Tw74CzjkDmpbaxcJdxVhOGn5-qyI6CkrWP4/s800/2022%20Switzerland%20Zurich%20Sargans%20Bus%2011%20Direction%20Feldkirch.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKHUueamLIvEmrA-pFtS8GTdLb8332SRu9djERV3mWzFvH9xdo9urSWZbSKlNP-GN-5bC5pse4qK9QqJRHmqenPRYcCxDM1CMvOfgmfO8owdleWmsiTpviKI4JYNC4xrY2mpuA_ie47oWeUpUGRN0Q0Tw74CzjkDmpbaxcJdxVhOGn5-qyI6CkrWP4/s16000/2022%20Switzerland%20Zurich%20Sargans%20Bus%2011%20Direction%20Feldkirch.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">#2: Continue by hopping on bus 11 (heading <span style="text-align: justify;">Feldkirch) or </span><span style="text-align: justify;">bus 12E</span><span style="text-align: justify;"> (heading Vaduz)</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><b><span style="font-size: medium;">OUR HALF-DAY TRIP IN VADUZ OF LIECHTENSTEIN </span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">As usual, both my husband and I woke up pretty early in order to maximise our half-day trip in Vaduz.

We even bought some to try when we're in Lucerne and turned out, it's indeed incredibly good. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Though the journey from Zurich to House of Läderach takes more than an hour by train, but it's really worth, especially for the chocolate lovers like my husband. The self-tour costs CHF5 (we didn't do any prebook, we just walked in) and we're given a lanyard with a small spoon for chocolate tasting at the chocolate fountain, a small piece of chocolate and a gift voucher of CHF5 which can be redeemed at the gift shop or the cafe.

Hence, it is advisable to purchase the tickets <b>up to two months in advance</b>. Thankfully, this Glacier Express journey is included in the Swiss Travel Pass, or else it's will break your wallet. However do take note that, the <b>seat reservation is mandatory</b> and you need to <b>pay additional fee for it</b>. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">You can select your preferred seat from this <b><u><a href="https://shop.glacierexpress.ch/gex_en/specials/daytrips/glacier-express">website</a></u></b>. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPWI5ddWJrlEYetQ84dEz4dGZ8hHlQy2DHct9wtVY6VjeNNeeTRKx7rkT0lBWjvBz8Xxma1ZgBENEFgjVNRT1rqNor0mq80PfnkqunLMkWz4A6kiM-fNFJxgAjpGlyMz0w8GXMb2mkroN53yS28MG7zGumKv7T3s129JwSAHbqX_B4NZpNHm056uFJ/s1390/Switzerland%20Glacier%20Express.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="902" data-original-width="1390" height="416" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPWI5ddWJrlEYetQ84dEz4dGZ8hHlQy2DHct9wtVY6VjeNNeeTRKx7rkT0lBWjvBz8Xxma1ZgBENEFgjVNRT1rqNor0mq80PfnkqunLMkWz4A6kiM-fNFJxgAjpGlyMz0w8GXMb2mkroN53yS28MG7zGumKv7T3s129JwSAHbqX_B4NZpNHm056uFJ/w640-h416/Switzerland%20Glacier%20Express.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>2) Which Side of Train Seat Is Better?</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Oh well, this is kinda a tough question and it's really hard for me to justify which is better cause I personally think, both side offer exceptionally beautiful view as Glacier Express features enormous panoramic side windows with glass skylight. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The seat configuration for 2nd Class is arranged 2+2 with a table in between whereas 1st Class car seats are 2+1.

Do take note that there is no direct train and it requires transfer at Spienz before reaching at <b>Frutigen</b>. And after arriving at Frutigen, catch the bus 230 towards Kandersteg and after 10-12 minutes of the bus ride, you will see Blausse on the right side of the bus. And that's where you need to alight. If you have the Swiss Travel Pass, all of these are covered under the pass. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The entrance fee is CHF10 for adult and CHF6 for children age between 6-15. It's free for children below 6 years old.
