Travel Promotions


My kids and I have already decided where and when our next trip will be and that will be two months after my retirement early next year.  In fact we have bought our air tickets and I will disclose our destination when the time comes.  Still a long way to go but I can feel the excitement in me already!  :)

Meanwhile we are now making plans on how to go and where to go when we reach the place.  There are so much to plan, accommodation is already booked so we can strike it off our checklist.  We will be going for a seven days trip and we are doing some research online on which are the places worth visiting when we arrive.  Better get everything planned up so that time will not be wasted and making our trip memorable as much as possible.

During our last trip to Melbourne at the beginning of this year, we also made our plans beforehand.  We checked out the daily tours and which days to take so that the trip would not be too tiring and stressful.  I love the last two days in Melbourne, relaxing and strolling along the streets with our own free time.  And most of all, one place not to be missed is the Sealife Aquarium which was within walking distance from our apartment.  We were given free passes because of the day trips we had booked on earlier.  That is why it is always beneficial to check out promotion tours online in advance especially those which offers free entrance passes to sight seeing places.

Take for instance, if you are visiting Miami, do you know that you can print out one of their
Miami Seaquarium tickets from their website?  You can actually save 20% on the tickets by printing out the Smartsave coupon and presenting it when you are buying the tickets or another alternative, you can even take a picture of the coupon and save it on your cell phone.  Either way, you will get to save 20% off the entrance tickets.  The best thing is that this coupon is valid for one to six people!
I am indeed attracted to this Miami Seaquarium, there are so many attractions to enjoy.  Among them are the Flipper Lagoon where we can watch dolphins walk on water, Manatee Exhibition where we will learn all about the sea life objects or even the Stingray Touch Pool whereby we an reach in and touch the Southern and Cow-nose stingrays.  Oh, I would love to view the 200 pound sharks during feeding time too!  Well, these are a few among the many attractions and I will certainly look more into them when I plan to go there the next time!

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....
