Boston 2019 - Part 8 Element Boston Hotel Review

DH's work event was finally over and we were happy to have booked an extra night in Boston. My choice fell on Element Boston Hotel that I booked directly on Mariott Bonvoy app. It was just about a block away from the apartment we were staying at and it was very convenient to move. I checked in to the hotel through the app and it produced a key to my room that would activate via bluetooth. So we rolled our suitcase over and headed to the receptionist because I couldn't find what my room number was. It turned out that it was in the app and I had just missed it.




We went to our room and were quite impressed with the size and with the kitchen in the room! Later on I found out that all Element hotels have kitchen in their rooms. Quite nice, I must say. They provided filtered water right on tap, but strangely water kettle wasn't provided.






Breakfast was included with our stay. They had a modest offering of cereals, oatmeals, eggs, and pancakes. Neither of those were attractive to me. That being said, they had a yoghurt station with greek yogurt and honey with toppings like granolas and fresh berries and I loaded myself up with it. So good!

In the early evening they have an event at the lobby which was wine and beer if I remember correctly, it was a get-together for their guests. Unfortunately we still wanted to go out and explore the area so we had to skip it.







Overall we were happy with our stay and we would recommend this hotel for anyone going to Boston especially if they are attending an event at the convention centre.

Nintendo Switch Sleeve Tutorial

Hi! I'm Kirana from woofkiki.blogspot.co.id . I am going to write an introduction for this blog post. We bought a Nintendo Switch in Japan.  I really liked it and played with it almost everyday. If you're wondering what a Nintendo Switch is, it is a video game where you can basically  "switch" everything. The joy-cons and even the game! You can also connect it to your TV. It would be nice to bring it around with you, but when you put it in your bag... Oh no! The screen scratched! So, this is a sleeve that will fix that. Let's get started!😊 Kirana Now the tutorial (by Kirana's mom)... 1. Make your pattern according to the picture below. It is basically a 6"x24" rectangle with a semi circle at one end. Note: this is not a printable pattern 1. Cut your outer fabric, lining, and batting(optional). In this tutorial, I used minky for lining and a pre-quilted fabric for the cover, so I didn't need extra batting. For batting, I recomm...

Spring in Egypt Part 9 - Luxor Temple

At the time when we arrived at Luxor temple it was already after dusk and it became a little difficult to take photos. I compensated by setting my camera ISO to 4000 to make tripod-less picture-taking possible even though the grains became more visible. Just like the previous nights, the moon still looked round to me. I wasn't sure which one of those moons was the actual full moon. We walked around the temple first with Michael for explanations about the temple. In the distance we were able to hear the adzan calling the people for prayer. Situated in the east bank, the construction of the temple was started by Amenhotep III, continued and finished by the famous King Tut and Horemheb, and then added on to by Rameses II and finally by Alexander the Great. Unlike the other temples we had previously visited, this temple is not dedicated to a single cult/god. Instead, it is used as a place to rejuvenate kingship. May of the kings were said to have been coronated at this temple. ...

Japan Winter Holiday 2017 Part 7 - Otaru Sakaimachi

On our second day in Otaru after we had breakfast and ice cream , we continued walking to Sakaimachi. This shopping street is one of the busiest in the city and is where a lot of Otaru attraction is located. In front of one of the stores there, we saw this cute dog wearing a Minion outfit. Of course Miss Kiki jumped and squealed and asked if she could pet it. We asked permission from the owner to take a picture with it. Along the street they have rock statues in the shape of famous characters like Anpanman and Mickey Mouse. With Anpanman It was a very nice day, we were able to walk around and had fun without feeling cold even though there were a lot of ice and snow. Check out the platforms they set up on the hill. We think that it's to prevent snow slides... Most of the buildings there were old style,,,  Many shops sell fresh seafood and they would cook it for you by order. As we walked past a souvenir shop, we saw a poster for these snowball make...
