After trying to make a few trips for this & next month in vain , have at least sorted part of June .
Was hoping to be in Melaka , Kuala Lumpur - MOKL & ? , .. but the ( Malaysia ) elections were announced . Then intended to have some “ rescue “ done at Chiva - som , Hua Hin ( for the excesses of our March / April French Polynesia & New Zealand trip ) but it will be closed for renovations in May & only reopens November . The stay at MOBKK will likely not happen as with the one for AmanYY ‘ s opening reception this Saturday .
We will be in Kila & Nusa Villas in early June .
Looks like E & O in Penang in October with possibly the aborted stops this / next month .Then Chiangmai which will go into early November , still deciding if FS or ? Then fly across to Chiva - som & MOBKK .
Mid November Dec : AmanTokyo , Nemu & RC Kyoto

Still filling in the gaps - hopefully Lupaia ( Agriturismo Montepulciano | Lupaia | Agriturismo di Lusso Toscana - Vienna Residents ‘ inn ) , AmanCGV. AmanSS & ?? . But really looking ambitious & possibly too crammed for this October .
Too hot earlier & closing in November
Too hot earlier & closing in November
Then for August , it is likely KL before Malacca / Melaka .
The FS SIN pastry Chef suggested we should try the FS in KL .
So deciding between that and MOKL ( KUL ) .
Majestic Melaka does not quite make it here but it seems , nothing does so far ..
Looks like sadly no EU this year as of now anyway .

Baur au Lac
Park Hotel Vitznau
Chedi Andermatt
La Reserve Geneva
The Ritz, Paris
Hotel de Crillon
Heading to Vitznau for wedding preparations, but it turned into a "may as well stay here at the same time", and suddenly became a 2 week trip.

Ballyfin was in my list!! You made me decide, thank you!
Vitznau > Dolder? Or should I try both?
Amanruya or FS bosphorus?
Been to Amanzoe, loved it, maybe should try again in 2019.
