Adoi..busy jugak kat opis hari ni.. kene keluar pergi KL balik office sambung kerja..fuh..! skarang baru la dapat merehatkan fikiran..boleh la pot pet pot pet skit kat blog ni ha.. since tengah free sikit ni nak cerita pasal the latest vacation, tapi tak la latest sangat cos actually trip ni happened last year in Jan/ Feb 2015. Memang kalau pergi Netherlands akan selalu lepak sini jer.. tak der dah tempat lain sbb its cozy and near by the eatery, supermarket and walking distance to the town..
I've been travelling on and off to Netherlands since 2008 means its already couple of times... ada la jugak terasa mcm balik kampung je kan..hahaha. Normally, when I travel to Europe, I would choose to travel by KLM and touch down in Schipol Airport, Amsterdam.. Reasons..? one is because its direct flight and two is because they always have good promotions. rasa kalau di banding2 kan harga flight ticket, KLM boleh di kata kan affordable juga.. biasanye KLM akan buat promosi tiket murah 3 bulan sebelum travelling date, so kene rajin2 tengok website dia orang.. Roughly the flight ticket pricing is between RM2,100 to RM3,400 per person..

At Schipol Airport there is lots of public transportation you can use to travel to your destination or hotels. ada bus, taxi or even train, which is a cheaper option. Dekat airport also penuh dengan retail outlet untuk bershopping and also restaurant or coffee shop untuk makan2 dan minum..
In Netherlands, selalu nye I stay in Oorsprong Park Hotel. Its actually a 3 storey town house which converted to B&B. Building2 kat sini semua nye like more than 100 years old tapi masih sangat elok dan cantik. Bilik dia spacious tapi tak la luas sangat macam kebanyakan bilik hotel di negara Asia. Bilik air lengkap dengan towel and toiletaries. Bilik sangat bersih dan ada individual window with the view.. Rate per nite is around Euro 70 - 90, depending of the type of the room and samada ada promosi atau tak...So roughly dalam RM280 semalam. RM280 tu termasuk breakfast, so okay la.. Ada juga budget2 hotel yang lain tapi so far memang dah rasa selesa duduk kat Oorsprong Park Hotel sebab rasa selamat sikit besides each room attached with individual bathroom.
Breakfast starts at 6.00 am until 9.00 am.. OMG..!! memang liat betul nak bangun pagi2 buta tu..especially sejuk2 gitu.. dengan mata separuh terbukak gigih gak la turun ke coffee house dia utk breakfast.. masuk je coffee house dia.. bau fresh coffee and fresh bread dia hmm..really nice and makes your day... something u have to experience it yourself..hard to explain here.. They serve bread with all sorts of jams, orange juice, apple juice, milk, cereal, all sorts of cheese (well dutch people love to eat cheese and that is why they became the tallest person on earth..hahah).. yoghurt, coffee and all sorts of tea bags you could choose from..ada strawberry tea, peach tea, blueberry tea, raspberry tea, english tea..mcm2 tea la.. Selalu nye I would just go for the bread, butter, orange juice and some yoghurt.. Makan roti tu biar banyak sikit, cos it makes your tummy full and enough until lunch time..save budget sikit nanti.. sometimes boleh kenyang sampai petang tau..

Tapi ada satu je yg tak best kat hotel Oorsprong Park ni.. tak ada lif.. so kalau dapat bilik tingkat tiga, dengan lurgage yg besar gabak berat..memang sangat mencabar kalori2 yg ada.. dah la tangga dia a bit steep.. tak berapa sesuai kalau ada anak2 kecil.. unless kita confident anak kita can behave..
 |
| Nampak tak..?Org besar pun boleh rasa seriau inikan pulak untuk budak2 kecik.. |
Masa the latest pergi last year, kebetulan ada salji..so suka la..and the view is really nice... So ni nak share view dari hotel.. dari dalam bilik boleh nampak pokok2 3-4 batang tu, entah apa entah nama nye.. Ni gambar yg ambik just recently tahun 2015 aritu..
Ada juga pernah pergi time autumn..memang selalu nye pergi time autumn sbb sejuk sikit tapi tak sejuk sangat...Meh nak share sikit gambar lama dari dalam bilik Oorsprong Park hotel time autumn..

Keluar je dari hotel, belok kanan ada perlbagai restaurant.. kalau belok sikit and jalan dalam 8 minit gitu akan ada supermarket.. kat situ boleh la beli apa2 barang keperluan and snacks ke.. Selalu bila nak fly back ke Malaysia, mcm2 shopping kat sini... mcm pergi beli barang dapur je gamak nyer sebab kat sini semua nye murah2 belaka.. teh, kopi, hot chocolate, jem, chocolates with brands yg kalau kat Malaysia considered as imported brands and mahal.. Kat sini groceries range from 0.20 cents and above.. some tea per box you could get for only Euro 1.00 which is around RM4.00 aje for falvoured tea bags. Kat Malaysia selalu nye around RM8.00 ke atas. Cuma kat sini when u do groceries shopping, kene read all the labels la to know which is Halal and which is not..
Kalau jalan depan sikit about 15 minits, sampai ke town.. kat town lagi best.. ada mcm2.. ada banyak tempat shopping2 baju, restaurant, etc.. Dekat town tu jugak ada train station yg if u nak pergi somewhere else boleh naik from here..
Okay now.. nak cerita la jugak..apa la yg menarik sangat kat Utrecth ni..? Normally org g Holland ni org pergi ke Amsterdam kan.. Actually Utrecth ni one of the biggest city in Holland. Kat Holland ni hampir semua buildings are building lama yg hampir beratus2 tahun.
