Day Tour To Covent Garden, London Tower And Tower Bridge

SIGHTS TO SEE.... sightseeing time walking around the city exploring the London Tower, the bridge, walking all the way from here to there and everywhere!

First time visit for my sister and she was so fascinated with the places we took her, so different from US and she really loves it a lot.  She kept saying and repeating that she would love to come back again to London... she knows where to stay, how to go about it at the tube station and so forth.  Well, I hope we shall come back again in the near future!
We took her to Covent Garden.... 
Live performances at the market... 
As usual, I cannot resist Ice Cream!!
Regardless of the weather!
Queued up for Ben's cookies... and ice cream for myself...
Yes, only Me is the One for desserts!
Having a good time at Covent... before proceeding to the Tower of London....
The icon of London... 
As usual.. long queues going into the castle... 
Marking our presence here and there.... 
Walking along the Tower Bridge.... 
Skies are blue... nice weather ...  YAY!
It is all about walking and more walking...
Prepare to wear a good pair of comfortable shoes.... 
HMS Battleship Belfast... 
A panoramic view... 
Peace to London!!
Good to be back again even just for a few days!

    I love London. It has character. Don't think I will go again though - I can't stand those long haul flights. Problem is I can't sleep when travelling.

    What a SUPER tour! Did you know there is a group of ravens that live in the tower, they are said to bring good luck. There is a raven keeper who looks after them. He wrote a book and I have it.

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....
