Algerian Plane Missing?

Oh No... Is that true?  I just got the news from my friend in watsapp.... missing plane again?  What is happening in our world these days?  One after another, the distressing and tragic news come...

I just googled about the Algerian plane and the following news from bbc.com.
  • An Air Algerie airliner has vanished en route from Burkina Faso to Algiers across the Sahara
  • Flight AH5017 had 110 passengers on board, including some 50 French citizens, as well as six Spanish crew members
  • The plane was chartered from Spain's Swiftair
  • UN officials suggest the plane may have come down in north-eastern Mali in bad weather 
I hope it is false alarm... it is not true... just too much to handle all at once...
The more I read online, the sadness begin to grow deeper and if I don't hold myself back, I feel I can just burst into tears thinking about them.   At that moment of time, I tore myself from dwelling further.... I feel I am getting old...

Too much sad news...

I tell myself... Treasure our love ones... be them parents, siblings, spouses, kids....
We never know how much we can be with them....
Do not hold grudges with anyone... life is not worth feeling unforgiving....

I miss my kids.... going to call them now...

    Pray that God will guide and guard before take off...and upon landing, say a little prayer to give thanks and leave everything in His hands. Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.

      Live each day like it is your last. Be happy always. Life is too short to be unhappy, miserable, angry, all those negative feelings... Count our blessings and give thanks always - this would make life feel more meaningful and worthwhile.

    I am sad and at the same time scare to hear the bad news one after another. Hope it is not true. Always say a little prayer to our Lord for safe journey whenever we go anywhere, far or near.

    Between the Air France crash and MH370 is 4 years gap. MH370 and MH17 is 4 months gap. Now double crash in a day, after a week of MH17. What the hell is going on? It is getting more and more frequent!

    It is on TV news and the plane is still missing. It makes me sad and emo too. I wonder what is in the sky that planes go missing like a Bermuda Triangle.

    We certainly need to hold our loved ones close and always tell them how much we love them. The world is getting more and more evil, just like the bible predicted.

    So many air disasters suddenly. Last weekend I cried when I saw photos of the crash victims. I heard this morning from my partner that the Algerian plane was found. So sad.

    Another air disaster making the news today - in Taiwan possibly due to bad weather according to reports.
    48 dead and rising.

    Good advice about treasuring the people around us and spending more time with them and not forgetting to let them we love them. :D

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....
