Street Party And Special Coffee Brew In Penang

FROM CHEW JETTY...

We moved forward into the city, we walked, we sang and we had fun... Reminded me of the song, We had joy, we had fun, we had season in the sun... Oh yeah, not to forget, the sun was still blaring hot.  I forgot to splash myself with suntan lotion, no wonder my skin has a darker shade now.. LOL...
Yes, we walked to where the crowd was and we took part and joined in the street band comprised of a few seniors.  They played with their  "home-made special kind musical instruments", a drummer, a guitarist and a singer, they do it for charity for St. Joseph home and of course, the crowd sang along with them...
Introducing the Drummer!
Isn't he innovative!
And the guitarist too!
Yes, We sang and danced along too!!
We really fun under the sun!
Turned me back to yesteryears... too!
And then there was this.... crowd here... 
All queuing up for something's good!
Just opposite the Cititel Express Hotel... 
Hey friend, thanks for queuing up!!
Nearly 45 minutes or was it an hour?
Something good is Brewing!
Auntie is "uniting" all races here... 
And many on the pavement too!
Coffee Lovers, bookmark this place!
Got STAR somemore... no joke!
After drinking, we know why the long queue!
Auntie's Coffee Secret Recipe...
And after that... time to get some goodies and then 
Bye Bye to Penang!

    Looks like all of you have so much fun in Penang! I also always ended up in Him Heang to buy the tausar pneah before going back home.

    The special coffee looks delicious! No wonder there was a long line. These musicians are so creative! I love seeing their home made instruments!

    Yes I know that song and love that song.

    Those musical instruments are so innovative and creative, not thought that we could make musical instruments out of those items (the tennis rackets, the Milo tins etc) :)

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....
