From Tuas To Bugis And Changi Airport, Singapore

WOKE UP WITH A HEART FULL OF EXCITEMENT... By the time we set out to take our brunch, it was almost noon.   Then we made our way to the immigration via the second link in Tuas.  The Malaysia immigration was not jammed, however we were stuck for some 15 minutes or so at the Singapore checkpoint.  Nevertheless, all was well and smooth as we drove over to Singapore happily with the help of google maps.....
Cannot recall when the last time I passed by this way to the city... 


Could not escape not paying the ERP of $5 flat rate for Malaysian cars...
Not only during weekends but for weekdays too... 
My son took me to Mediacorp to have a look.... 
Something like HKTVB? 
Impressive... 
And the famous Marina Bay... 
Never been to the top before... hope one day I will finally fork out the $20 to go up.. 
hahahaha... 
After some turnings,we reached Bugis... 
We have a couple of hours to while away the time... 
Cooling to walk around here... 
Lots of Japanese goodies to buy but no, I did not... 
We just walked around and ended up eating Old Chang Kee, the Currypuff .... 
And also a few stuff that caught my eye at the shopping mall...
Left Bugis around 4pm to adjourn to Changi Airport.... 
Waited half hour or so before my VIS came smiling through the arrival door... 
Our mission has complete in Singapore..
Driving back to Johor took more than one hour to reach...
By the time we had our dinner, it was nearly 8pm...

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....
