An Evening At Sunshine And Sea Breeze At Feringgi, Penang

THE NIGHT WE REACHED PENANG, A FRIEND INVITED US TO SUNSHINE RESTAURANT AT BATU FERINGGI...  We have to go fetch her and it was so jammed up especially the road to Gurney Plaza... it took us nearly 45 minutes to reach Island Plaza, if there is no jam, it normally takes 15 minutes!

I think I cannot stay in Penang, the jam is "overkilled"... Staying in Ipoh has spoil me, I guess... hahaha... Anyway, back to my topic.... my friend who was waiting for us at her apartment kept calling and asking us where we were, we said..."Stuck in the jam near Gurney" ... she said she was hungry and we on the other hand, were angry at the traffic..

No choice, either party got to wait and we managed to reach her place exactly 6pm and off we drove to our destination.  No point going to town for dinner, would be stuck there for another hour....
My second time here and my hostess ordered the same old dishes as before... well, almost!
hahahahaa...
Only difference is the spinach soup.... an added on...
Their famous misua with clams... but I didn't like the misua to be so "messily" done...
Their Guinness stout chicken is acceptable and tasty...
Claypot fish with yam is also their signature dish...
Ordered 10 sticks of chicken satay... 
And the bill came to around RM120 plus plus... with fruit drinks for four people... 
After dinner, we took a drive to Hollywood..... er... restaurant...
A very windy evening but no rain at all.... 
It was the monsoon wind, my friend told me....
Nice just to stand there and enjoy the sea breeze...
We stood till the sky had turned dark and we soon called it a night.... 
A night of wind and sea breeze!

  8. If you think Penang traffic is bad, surely you will gasp in horror with KL? That is the reason I ran away from KL to Penang in the first place. But it is getting worse now, so maybe in a few years time I will run elsewhere..

  9. One hungry, a carful angry = not good. But luckily all ended well with a good meal.

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....
