Sharon And I In Xin Wang Hong Kong.......

Met up with Sharon from Somewhere in Singapore for the first time.  Before I left for Singapore, I wrote an email to her few days ago asking whether she would like to meet me today... and I am so glad that we did!  Our rendezvous was held in Jurong East Mall around 12pm and I could recognize her from afar.... (not so far la...)  hahahaa...

My kids wanted to take Italian food but I prefer to take something "Chinese"... so eventually, my kids went their own way and Sharon recommended this place for our lunch, she said that we could take our own sweet time to chat here because food courts are always crowded and noisy... I readily obliged...  :)

After we ordered our food and exchanging "pleasantries"... our cameras also started to "talk!"
Cam-whoring to show our presence.. LOL....
Both of us couldn't eat much so I suggested that we shared out this meal.....
and Sharon gave me a bigger portion !
For side-kick, I ordered crispy mango with prawn...
Funny combination...
That was why I wanted to try....
For desserts, I ordered Ice Kacang.... supposedly to be...
When it was served, I was so astounded with its Height!
Both of us couldn't even finished up this Tall Tower... LOL.....
Both of us ended our lunch when my kids came looking for us....
Time really flies.... we had such a wonderful time chatting endlessly...
Looks like Blogging has its language only Bloggers can only understand... LOL...
Before we parted, we "showed off" our goodies bag... hahahaa....
I wonder who started this off... Goodies Exchange....
But I am so "paiseh".... mine is nothing compared Sharon....
Thank you, Sharon for meeting me. for the goodies and for the wonderful meal......
Remember our "deal" when you come to Ipoh.... 
Just let me know in advance so that I can shed off some kg. first!
LOL....

    Can beat Ipoh food? Eating in the malls - usually good but not great (and moire expensive). Have to go to the authentic kopitiam and hawker stalls. Dunno Jurong but if Orchard Road, not easy to locate any.

    Hey you posted 4 photos and Sharon didn't even smile in a single one. I wonder if she has missing teeth or afraid gold nuggets would fall out if she smiles. Wakakakakaka... I am just kidding, sorry lo!

Three Hours City Tour At Ensenada, Mexico

A THREE HOURS CITY TOUR when we embarked in Mexico on the second morning.   My sister booked the three hours city tour in Ensenada, Mexico, a van came to pick us up from the port.  Ensenada is the border of Mexico and it reminds me of Hatyai, a border town too between Malaysia and Thailand.  We were taken to a shopping area where we must haggle for the goods.  LOL.. Yes, something common in my own country... Anyway, we did not buy anything for ourselves... just a wooden handmade truck for my grandson which cost $8usd.   Nothing much to shout about on this three hours excursion, I was so sleepy on the way back to the ship that I dozed off and only awaken when we were driven through the town.  All in all, I just wanted to step onto Mexican soil and I would give this a miss if I were to go on this Mexico cruise again.  LOL... At the open area shopping walking towards the Blowhole... This is La Bufadora Blowhole, an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of shooting water over 60 fe

Exploring The Sea Cruise Royal Caribbean

CRUISING ALONG.... Once we deposited our bags in our cabins, we had our buffet meal at the Hammerjack restaurant and exactly at 4pm, we heard a loud Horn signal...  ITS TIME TO SAIL ALONG THE PACIFIC OCEAN! And while the ship started to sail, we humans started to walk and explore.... to familarize ourselves inside the ship....  Elevators on each side of the ship....  Making my mark....  On another side....  We walked along to check out our food outlets... This Promenade Cafe  had became our regular joint .... We like to sit there enjoying our hot drinks and desserts... Free flow of food day and night.... Passing through the bars to the casino... The casino will open only when the ship is in international waters...  At one of the jackpot machines... I wonder if they are real?? But they are only $1 bundles... Then we went up to the highest floor.... The swimming deck.... Taken against the sun.... Nice sunset in the evening.... The Happy Trio!

First Day In The Royal Caribbean Cruise To Mexico

ROW ROW ROW YOUR BOAT.... gently down the sea....  Royal Caribbean, it is my second time following this giant vessel, the first time was from Singapore to Phuket, that was a very nice cruise.  So when my son mentioned that he found a good deal online, this time to Mexico, I agreed without hesitation.  Let's Go! A three nights stay with food and lodging only cost around $250 per person with at least one senior in per room.  Meals were either buffet style or fine dining, we can choose and cafes were opened 24 hours for us to rest and relax.  How not to resist... LOL...  And so here we are... just one week after landing in US, I was on the sea....  Looks small from afar...  It was a giant vessel with at least 14 floors.... On the way to embarking after Custom Clearance...  Our room for the next three nights....  Small and cosy.... And adjoining to my son's family room through a door...  The one with balcony cost a bit more...  A short briefing about safety after we checked in....
