Valentines Day 2010

Dear hubby arranged for a nice stay at Shangri-la Hotel at the Rocks in Sydney for Valentines this year. The Shangri-la at the Rocks is easily one of the best hotels with the best view of the Opera House and Darling Harbour in Sydney.

Here are some pictures of our room. Its rather similar to most hotels but I suppose the distinction comes from the service guests receive.

The main area of the room

A rather disappointing TV. We expected better of Shangri-la.

The bath tub. There was a shower box in the opposite corner.

Main wash area. Shower box can be seen in the mirror.

The Sydney Harbour Bridge.

The Sydney Opera House.

We had a nice buffet breakfast on Valentines Day morning. Our table was at a corner next to full screen which was nice. A touch of privacy and some scenery to boot.

Courtyard view from the dining area.

We had a lovely stay during which the hotel showed its generosity by sending up a bottle of bubbly and some chocolates for the occasion.

The chocolates that came with the bubbly.

Here is the humorous sequence of hubs trying to pop the bottle.

Dear hubs also arranged for a pregnancy massage for me at the Chi Spa which coincidentally had only opened its doors a couple of days prior. So it was a spanking new treatment room.

The weekend culminated with us watching ‘Valentines Day’ on Valentines day.

Yes... we are rather cliché. :)
