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...

Japan Trip June 2016 - Part 9 - Osaka

It was a super hot and bright morning and we were all packed and ready to ride the train to Osaka. We had no excuse to take a taxi so we walked to Kyoto Station... It was a rather short ride considering we moved cities, it was still around noon when we arrived at Osaka Station. The AirBnb property I had booked looked close to the station on the map, but it was further than expected. We were so sweaty by the time we got there, mostly because of our backpacks and our suitcases! I was very impressed Miss Kiki carried her backpack without complaints even though it was pretty stuffed by then. Taken from Osaka Station We had to change our wet and sticky clothes upon arrival, and after a bit of rest we decided to head out. First to Tenjimbashisuji Shopping Street listed on a tourist guide just over 1 km away. It was so hot and sunny I regretted not taking a hat for any of us. I was lucky I hadn't forgotten to bring my sunglasses. When we got there, we real...

Motykas in Asia 2016 Part 7 - West Java

One day after we arrived in Jakarta from Phuket, we went on a road trip to Bandung, West Java. We were on a roll! Hahaha. Our first destination was the White Crater, a beautiful place located in Ciwidey, outside Bandung.  We left our home at around 7 am and arrived at the crater at almost noon. It was a loooong drive. Nonetheless, the view was breathtaking. It was a bit chilly up there, even the Winnipegers pulled out their jackets. :D The crater was pale green with strong sulphur smell, they recommend a maximum of 15 minutes at the bottom. Around the crater were serene looking tree barks with little or no leaves. During a certain time of the day, there would usually be fog coming down over the crater but we didn't get to see it. We spent about an hour at the crater and we moved on to the Rancabali Tea Plantation about 3 km away for some pictures. Miss Kiki was so...
