Hotel Opera

I lugged my bags into the reception with the help of my red Kacheek, BizzyKit2000. The Faerie at the check-in desk was really nice and gave me a map of the hotel so I wouldn't have a problem getting to the restaurant and the indoor pool etc. She took our names and and lead us up the twisting, curving marble stair case, while I was busy looking at all of the magnificent peach coloured carpets and all of the crystal chandeliers that were brightly lit before us.

I had booked us a deluxe room to stay those three nights we were staying there, as it was nice and big with two levels and two beds. I couldn't believe the service there; it was great, especially the room service that BizzyKit2000 secretly ordered on the booking form. They were so quick at everything!!

Anyway, we both unpacked our things, along with BizzyKit's Kiko squeeze toy that she can play with in the bath. I got her changed into her denim dungarees and red bandanna while I was having a shower. All of a sudden there was BizzyKit2000 chucking bucket loads of water on the floor with her bucket and spade she made me take with us so she could play with her Kiko plushie. Silly thing!

When I got out, I gave BizzyKit a quick bath (with her Kiko Toy!) and we both got dressed to go down to dinner. We used the map that Faerie gave us and eventually got to the restaurant We both had a five course meal, which was lovely; Garlic bread with a bit of Tomato soup to go with it, then a nice piece of pork with a salad dressing, and for pudding we had a superb helping of Strawberry Sponge cake with strawberry sprinkles to go on top. Lovely.

I decided that I wanted to explore the Hotel a bit more, so I took BizzyKit2000 up to our room and tucked her into bed, whilst I went and had a nice long swim in the clear blue waters. After that, I was very tired, but I could hear some of the opera going on in the Opera Hall, so I went and watched four singers before I staggered back up to my room. I had a great first night there.

In the morning, BizzyKit begged me to take here down to the gardens at the front of the hotel to play a bit of croquet, so in the end I agreed, and we ended up having a nice Neopian breakfast complete with bacon and white toast, and then heading out to the gardens. We had a nice afternoon at the outdoor pool, and in the evening we headed back out to the restaurant. We had the same five course meal again and went back to the indoor pool.

The next morning, I decided to get a jump start on packing. But we couldn't leave without going to the small grooming parlour first and getting our hair and nails done! We had a last game of croquet in the gardens after out second Neopian breakfast, and in the afternoon, we decided to just relax in the gardens by the pool side. In the evening, I begged BizzyKit2000 to come with me to the Opera Hall for our last night, so that was that done. Then we went swimming in the indoor pool again for our last time, to help us digest our third and final five course meal.

We then went back to our room to finish our packing and get a bit sleep before our journey back to Neopia. In the morning, we treated ourselves to another session at the grooming parlour, and another croquet game in the gardens. An hour later our holiday at the Hotel Opera was over, and we were taken back to Neopia on the holiday bus. BizzyKit2000 boasts about it to her friends all of the time, but she still says she wants to go back there for a longer time one day. Maybe that's true? Maybe we will. So treat your pets to a vacation, because it's worth it!
