Travelling On Roads

The majority of times you go away, it’s likely you fly instead of driving. After all, you can’t exactly drive across oceans and flying makes the journey shorter and easier.  However, sometimes, though, we hit the road instead of the sky, and decide to drive to our location. It may be that you’re going on a city tour and driving makes more sense. Or, perhaps you’re going on a full-blown road trip, and the journey is the body of your vacation through our trusted companion, that is the vehicle.

Either way, going long distances in your car when you aren’t used to it can be daunting. It’s likely you’ve studied your route and tried to prepare stop-offs to keep you from drowsing behind the wheel. All important stuff, of course. But, with all these big plans, it’s easy to forget about the fundamental checks you need to make before leaving. Lucky for you, we’re going to remind you of them here.

It would be foolhardy to head off without doing a few maintenance checks. This is simple stuff which could make a huge difference. You should check tire pressure, lights, and even fluid levels. It’s also crucial you check your spare tire changers is in place and ready to go should you spring a leak. And, though it seems obvious, you also need to make sure to fill up your tank before setting off.  Not only that, it is also essential to check other accessories in the car as well.  Light snacks and water is part of travelling kit, just in case you are stranded halfway to nowhere and feeling hungry and thirsty.

With everything else to worry about, you’d be surprised how many people forget this simple step by checking out the Best Buy Auto Equipment.  One thing’s sure, though; you’ll struggle to reach your destination on half a tank of gas. To make sure you don’t forget anything, write a proper checklist and cross points off as you go.  It is always safe than to be sorry later.  When all is done and ready to go, you will have a piece of mind.  Happy Vacation!!

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....
