An Evening With River Cats And The Bees At Raley Fields

HAD A GREAT TIME OF MY LIFE AT RALEY FIELDS LAST EVENING!  For the first time in history, I went to witness a live Baseball game between two cities... River Cats representing Sacramento and The Bees from Salt Lake City....  Wow, I never thought I would have a chance to go for a live game, used to watch those on TV only and now I have been to the Real Thing... What a Blessing!!
The game started at 7pm...but we were there as early as 5.30pm..
The Raley Field...
Spectators were already there... 
Couldn't believe it... I am really here!
Hi Girls!!
At the entrance, our tickets cost $23 each....
The Sacramento Mascot greeting the crowd...
The beauties getting ready...
And I was eyeing the food booths for my dinner!
And the arena before the crowd sets in....
Getting the field clean and ready....
 Ok, time for food!
Wanted something simple and nice....
Hot Dog before dressing...
And after dressing!
Yummmmsss!  Now it is time to go in!
My drink on a souvenir cup... 
And my melted ice cream which was so "slurpy!"
Before the match started...
The players getting ready... warming up...
Salt Lake City ...
River Cats Fan!
And the match began......!
The cheering.... I love the way they raised up their hands... I followed suit...
They cheered... I cheered.. hahahaa...
I like his hat though....
I have one too!  Abu gave it to me that evening...
It cost $21 !!  I wouldn't want to pay that.. hahahaa...
So touched by his gift!
And the match went on .....
 I had some briefing about the game from the guys sitting right and left....
And I cheered for some..especially when the ball went over the net to our direction....
And the score...
The River Cats from Sacramento won!! 
Congratulations River Cats!!

Indeed a very memorable evening for me... Yes!
At least I get to know a bit more about Baseball now.....
hahahahaa...

    That sure was a lot of money to pay to go and watch a baseball match....but then, of course, I am not into sports and games. Others probably would not mind. Still, great that you went and had the experience - go watch American football next. :D

    Their whole country has a unique culture that loves the baseball, football and ice hockey to the max for all generations. They would party and have tail-gate parties outside the stadiums and any homes of the host. You can make friends with any strangers by just talking about games of their favourites. Abu will buy you crates of beers if you start ranting about the Steelere, Penguins and Pirates!
    Enjoy!

    Good job, attending one of the big 4 sports of the US! In fact baseball is the only one which you can get tickets last minute. Basketball, American football and ice hockey, if you have no season tickets then you cannot attend, apparently :/

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....
