Seafood At Kuromon Ichiba Market, Osaka

ON OUR SECOND FREE N EASY DAY...

We went to Kuromon Ichiba Market, it is really an eye opener for me, I seem to be fascinated with almost everything I saw there.  Food.... Seafood... and their fantastic prices.  Imagine eating two slices of melon for 1,000 yen...*RM37*!!  Two slices only!  But then... one bite on the fruit, I am so WOW by it!  So super juicy that we were not really biting on them!  Alright, very expensive but it is worth trying them out... unfortunately I did not take a picture of them.... I thought it would be like melon.. a normal melon... LOL..

One must go to this market, not to be missed, just eat and don't start to convert... LOL...
I guess this is a tourist spot... a very good one, I say...
Here we are... at the entrance... 
This type of Welcoming Robots are a norm there... 
Lots of choices... we really had a hard time choosing what to eat.... 
I cannot resist this Unagi!
And we bought two pieces to try...
Part of our food for breakfast...
Too bad I did not take pictures of the other food we ordered..
I was too busy.... really busy!
Why did I keep taking this???.. 
Saw this too.... 
Fresh and succulent... 3,000 yen if not mistaken!
Grilled flesh.... 
So what do we have here?
This!!  
Just have to be patient and queue up for our turn....
Take our pick!
And he will do the cooking....
With the shell as the "pan"
And after a few minutes.... 
EAT!
Yes, we tried this too.... 
Sea Urchin!
First time I see and eat this.... RAW.... 
It is served like this... RM37 for one... 
OK, anyone dare to try?
Tasted something like cockles to me.... 
Then of course, we tried the Kobe Beef too... 
2,000 yen for a small packet...
They grilled for us there and then...
Oh dear, I could not find my photos... 
Just too bad....  
I guess I have to make another trip to this place again..
LOL... 
Empty handed but not not empty stomached.. 
LOL..

    I went inside this market on every trip and ate almost everything that was cheap only. Their food is so fresh and really authentic Japanese style. I had tried their melons but they are over priced!! I better eat their melon ice creams will do.

    The unagi looks fantastic. That would be my choice. I have not tried sea urchin. Very expensive!

    RM37 for two slices of melon! And there I was feeling miserable and guilty as in one moment of folly, I had a durian mille crepe for RM15.00. Must not spend so foolishly anymore, poor ol' pensioner that I am.

    Are those scallops on top of the "pan"? I like scallops but not the unagi.

    I have not tried sea urchin before.

    Cool! We were there too but didn't eat any street food, we ate mostly in restaurants. I'm not a fan of unagi & uni. I think we ate a lot of Wagyu during the trip. Hahaha! xoxo

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....
