Bug Off With Malaysia Bugslock

I think I am a very sweet lady.... Well.... I have never heard anyone saying that to me before but the mosquitoes certainly did!  

Alright, let me prove a point here... whenever I am in my mother's house, a few of us would gather at the table and chit chat and then guess what?  I am always the one ended up "spanking" my own legs and scratching here and there.... then after awhile, I could see the bitten part "bulging" up from my skin!  Urghh... Why me???   I always ask my siblings and their answer will be... "YOU are very sweet!"  What a nice compliment, a compliment that brings forth itchiness..... 

Well, it doesn’t just happen in my mom's house, the mozzies seem to be following me everywhere.  While taking my pet dog for evening walks, very often my legs will end up being bitten.  Nowadays I have to put on long pants and long sleeves whenever I go for evening walks.   As we all know, Denggi is on the rise now... it is better to take precautions than to be sorry later, right?

Anyway, my problem is now overcome!  All because of Bugslock, a mosquito repellent which was recommended by my friend quite recently.   Initially I did not know what it is until I logged into their website and to my delight, it is some sort like a band that repels mosquitoes!  But I also heard that there are some imitations of Bugslock in the market so we got to be careful too.   The ones that I ordered  have certification from Korea Environment & Merchandise Testing Institure and registered under US Environmental Protection Agency.    More information can be obtained from www.malaysiabugslock.com.  
I chose Blue, Pink and Green....
And it comes with a zip opening... 
I can put it back when I am not using it...
Non-toxic ....Safe to use..
1-4 pieces, it cost RM13 each
5-9 pieces, it is RM12 each
 One of the colours I ordered.... A nice Blue...
It has a lemongrass smell and I like it!
For the past few days, I wore it on my hand when I went for my evening walks...
I came home without scratching and I was wearing shorts! 
Looks like it is effective for me.....
The band is adjustable.... I can even wear it around my ankle... 
Well, I am going to give the other two to my daughter..
She is also very "mosquito prone"....
I'm so glad I have Bugslock...
I don't have to use the spray repellent anymore...

    Wow, this is so cool! No sticky lotions. How long will it last? We have been getting bit by what we all call "no see ums". Meaning they are so tiny that you can't see them.

    When we go to the park, we have to rush back at certain time to prevent bitten by mozzies. This is good when I bring my girls to play at the park.

    My girl used to be bitten by mozzies. But since I bought Melaleuca oil for her to use, I didn't hear any more complaints abt mozzies bites fr her.

    I tried something similar on Aden when he was few months old, but not really effective.
    Now using the MosiGuard repellent, it works!

    Yay! Now the mozzies would not think you as a sweet lady anymore! ^^

    Thanks for the product sharing. Glad it works for you.

    I always believe that the colour of our clothes and body's temperature will attract the mozzies.

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....
