Weekend At Glasgow and Loch Lomond

HERE AND THERE... I have been out of town for the last few days, I did not bring my laptop with me, thus my blog has been left hanging high and dry till today.   Back to arranging the photos and cracking my head where they were taken.  LOL... Took me quite a long while to get them done and please excuse me, my faithful readers for not coming by your blogs and A BIG THANK YOU for coming by to mine!  LOL... and now back to my post....

One Saturday Aaron and I drove up to Glasgow to meet up with Gabriel again.  He took a train from Edinburgh and reached Glasgow at 10.30am while Aaron and I reached there around 1.30pm!  Apologies to our friend who patiently waited for us in town... We picked him up and off we went to Loch Lomond....
In Glasgow City where we waited for Gabriel to meet us.... 
Off to Loch Lomond which is one of the largest lake in Southern Scotland...
It is more than an hour drive up to Loch Lomond...
Weather was beautiful but it was super cold... just 4 degrees!!
This is where we stopped for our lunch... 
River Cruise for tourists...
We stopped in this Balloch House for our lunch.... 
Gabriel and I had the fish and chips.... 
Crispy on the outside, fresh succulent fish on the inside...
Aaron's special home pizza... 
Total bill around 50 pounds... 
After taking endless pictures, we proceeded on to the Loch...

    Fish and chips abroad is so so so much nicer, not like ours here - they use Dory, don't like the texture and the smell.

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....
