Blessings From Aberdeen, Scotland

Aaron flew to Aberdeen on the 19th October, 2014 and he was supposed to work there for ten days...
 
During his seven days in Aberdeen, I was not worried about him at all... I know that he would be well taken care of in a way especially after office hours.  I am so thankful to Steven and Mary Moh who are residing in Aberdeen for welcoming Aaron into their home, he knows he will get to taste special food in their home!
Such a heart warming gathering....
With all the glorious dishes...... 
and all the desserts prepared by Mary.... 
Isn't Aaron Blessed!
Aaron told me that he had a wonderful time with the Moh-s and knowing new friends there...
On his last day in Aberdeen, he was invited to give a sharing in church....
It is indeed an honour and a blessing to share... 
The church is very blessed by this lovely couple...
Thank you, Mr & Mrs Moh...
For "taking care" of Aaron and your "goodies!"
God Bless Both of You...

Coming back to Aaron's trip, he was supposed to be there from 19.10.2014 till 28.10.2014.  But upon arriving in Aberdeen, his boss called him to cut short his trip by three days.  I believe it is God's timing .... if he flew back on the 28th October, he would not be able to make it to my mom's funeral... He gave an eulogy to his grandma, he has lots of fond memories of her at a very young age.....

    Yes, Steven and Mary are such wonderful people. So nice and friendly and easy to get along with. Wonder when they will come back to Sibu.

    Aberdeen is so beautiful. In fact, they say all of Scotland is beautiful...but the mere thought of flying long haul puts me off already.

    Sure, sure, Sharon. Everybody is welcome to visit us here in Sibu, anytime.

    Nice! Not many people can boast that they have been to Aberdeen before. It is quite out of the way from the more popular south and west side of Scotland. I hope Aaron had a taste of haggis and lots of whiskey though :D

    How far away are you from Aberdeen? We have a restaurant called "The Aberdeen Barn". Looks like he had a wonderful time, he is lucky to have such a job that sends him to places like this, and he does not even have to pay! I hope you are doing well, Claire.

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....
