Food Delights In Penang Island

Somehow we always go back to the same stalls over and over again while we are in Penang...  and we decided that we must not do that anymore next time... we must try other stalls which we have not been to the next time.  Of course we should do some "food homework" before we go to Penang again otherwise we would end up going to the same stalls again ... and again....

Here we were at Kimberley Street again the other day.... I was actually quite full that evening and we just took a bit of this and that... not much of food varieties and not too much to my liking as well.  Blame it on my slow indigestion!
Aaron ordered some braised duck meat ... or was it chicken....? 
This is "koay chap" without the innards..
The fried koay teow was something not expected by Reanaclaire...
The dessert... "everything got" is the name....
 
The next morning we went to the market called 7th Street Market...
We had duck meat Koay Teow Th'ng....
We bought RM10 of roasted pork to go with the noodles...
This is the stall we have the duck meat....
 From the 7th Street Market, we adjourned to Gottlieb Street for Laksa!
We had these too...
By then my tummy was really FULL!
 
The morning before we left for Ipoh, we had Koay Teow Th'ng again..
This time in Hutton Lane.... 
For sidekicks!
That ended the part of hawker food in Penang..... 
We drove home after our two nights stay ... 
And... yes, we will be back in Penang again.... soon...
Very Soon!

    It all looks good! Are those pot stickers? Yum. Also how cool, the duck meat has a duck egg on the side! I have never tasted duck meat, but I do feed the ducks around here! Some come into our yard and are almost like pets.

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....
