The Great Escape

Of all the countries I've studied about in school, one country stood out most and that is New Zealand! I remember seeing rolling hills and green plains with healthy cows in my school Geography textbooks and those images stuck in my mind until today. I think it's one of the loveliest places on earth to live on. Think of those locations when they made The Lord of The Rings trilogy and you'll know what I mean...

The only 'overseas' country I've ever been to is Brunei and that was way back in 1987. I do hope to travel to New Zealand one day... maybe when the kids are all grown up and I'm retired. I almost made it to Singapore a few years back but I realized I had no passport yet so I couldn't make the trip.

If only a few thousand Ringgit would just conveniently drop from the sky, I'd hop on a plane and fly to New Zealand this instant and take advantage of Accor Hotels latest City Super Sale promotion. I even have the hotel in mind... the All Seasons Christchurch. It's just a mere five minute drive from the city centre, and offers great value accommodation in a garden setting reminiscent of a vintage English manor. Hagley Park, Christchurch Gondola, Casino, Museum and Arts Centre are all nearby. Moreover, it's a 100% non-smoking hotel!

Oh wait, have you heard of Accor Hotels City Super Sale? It's for a limited time only so listen up carefully peeps! I'm only going to say this once.
