A new hotel in Liverpool!

The Ramada Plaza will open in Liverpool, in 2010. I welcome that, the city is in need of a good hotel. Although this will be a 4* property, it looks like it will be nice. Wonder if Liverpool will ever get a 5* hotel...?

Varun Sharma and "Inside Luxury Travel"

The program will be back!

I don't know when it will be showed, but in these days they are filming for the new programs.

In the beginning I really liked these programs, but now, I am not sure anymore. Varun shows some very nice hotels and the service he gets. Always big suits and the best restaurants. The problem is... He is coming there, with a camera. Everybody "knows" him and everybody wants to be shown at their best at TV. Sure he will get the best service and the best rooms!

Another thing... In my opinion it's a little bit "tacky" to pay 2000-3000 Gbp./night for a suit. I love luxury, but when it become insane and without sense, it's "tipping over". One person is not in need of two TV's, two bathrooms, two walk-in-closets etc...

I wished this program could show normal rooms at these nice hotels, not the "fairytale" view....

What to shop in Aberdeen?

Well... I didn't shop much in Aberdeen. They have all the department-stores, but if you don't like shopping there, it's not much to shop. I bought some books at Waterstones, as I always do while in UK. Since it was close to Easter I also filled my suitcase with... Easter-eggs! :-D




Buying Easter-eggs is a tradition in UK. In Norway we have smaller Easter-eggs, with marzipan. In UK they have those very big eggs made of chocolate. I bough a lot for presents to friends and family.



Because of all the chocolate, I had to buy some tooth-paste too... Haha, no... It's just that I LOVE this tooth-paste and we don't have this in Norway. Since it was on sale at Boots, I filled up my suitcase... Chocolate and tooth-paste...:-D
