Have Food Will Travel.. Gunong Rapat To First Garden

FROM THE CULTURAL VILLAGE, WE ADJOURNED FOR OUR LUNCH IN GUNONG RAPAT, just a very short distance away...  This shop is special for their varieties of noodles, fish paste, curry, soup and laksa!  It is located on the main road in Gunong Rapat, just opposite the main market....
It was super crowded when we arrived.... looked kind of discouraging but then after seeing the numerous types of fish paste at the entrance, we just had to get in by hook or by crook... hahahaa...
 
But then... thanks to Elin and her hubby,
 they managed to get a table for they arrived much earlier than us... 
And now for the orders...
There are lots more... just couldn't take them all.... 
Waited more than half an hour for our food to arrive... 
Eight bowls of noodles with the above and a bowl of stewed chicken feet, 
the bill came to around RM45....
Certainly they will see us again the next time... !  

All had not ended yet after our lunch in Gunong Rapat...
From there, we drove for another half hour to First Garden!
We went for another bout of food...
A long queue was at the scene but thanks to Nancy's hubby, 
we managed to get our "treasures" on the table pretty fast!
  Oh my goodness!!
Still warm and crispy!!
  Just look at this transparent piece of thing!
  hahahaha...
Thank you Nancy and hubby for the RP fest!
Indeed everything was good including the fresh lime juice!!
Just perfect on this hot sunny Sunday...
Phewww.. what a Feast!

    when all the foodie gathers, there is surely nothing that you will not do for food!! hahaha..

    i have been to that restaurant in Gunung Rapat, but that time i went was rather late afternoon hence not as much varieties left.. but of course i didn't have to wait for 45 minutes, haha~~ :)

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....
