Mooncakes Shopping At Ming Yue Confectionery, Pasir Pinji, Ipoh

Time really passes fast... soon a very delightful weekend has come to an end... from Friday till Sunday, we had a good time together... a few of us are old classic friends from the 1970s... hahahaa....

Our itinerary started when my friend arrived at Ipoh Railway Station at around noon... besides lunch, we managed to go all the way to Ming Yue Confectionery in Pasir Pinji to get some goodies!  This place is now famous for their mooncakes especially the festive season is another one month away.  I expected the Queue to be there, yes, true enough, it was.....
 We waited almost half hour when we reached this spot...
Considered a short one... I remember one time it was until three shoplots away...
If everyone knows what they need to buy, then the waiting time will be much shortened..
 So I prepared my list by writing it in my handphone...
Smart eh... ! hahahaa...
Here is the price list....
What I needed, I quickly keyed into my hp...
And just read out when it reached my turn... 
we didn't buy much...
Just 7 boxes! 
Er... 8 actually... the top one was sent by Andy through Groupon...
He told me that I must eat these.....
First time buying for Mama... so must eat! 
hahahaha...
And share some with Labby too, he said!
Aiyoh.. so wasted...
Labby will just gulp it down without tasting!
As for these Ming Yue ones, they are not mine...
How could I eat so much?  hahahaa..
They belong to my friend...
She loves all these mooncakes from Ming Yue!

    The price is so attractive, no wonder that there is a queue. How long can the mooncakes be stored since your friend bought so many?

    Your Labby is so lucky, got a fair share of the mooncake. As for me, I am not too fond of mooncakes. Some are too sweet and others the fillings like "tau sar", too dried. If you ask me to queue up & buy, definitely a big NO, NO.

    Very efficient to prepare a list! I hate it when people hold up the line because they can't decide. I am not gila over mooncakes. But I do eat if offered. I only buy to give to family members.

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....
