Assam Laksa And Lemak Laksa At My Own Cafe, Penang

FOODIE TIME.... Since it was a day trip, we wanted to try more food by sharing out our portions.  If each of us take a full bowl each, then we would not be able to try other varieties... LOL... now at our senior age, I guess our tummies have shrunk a bit.  I get full very easily but if I do more walking after eating, then I can be able to tuck in more.  That was what we did after we had our breakfast along Perak Road.... 
We ordered three bowls of their Classic Hokkien noodles special.... added ingredients...
One bowl is missing cos we could not sit together as 4 persons due to SOP... 
Anyway, we shared out the noodles for breakfast.... 
Then we drove to Lebuh Cannon... 
Even though it was a Sunday, there was no crowd...
I guess people are still skeptical going around places...
First time I see Penang in her quiet state... 
We walked around the area...
That was where I bought my doggie stuff.... 
We stopped here for our break... 
My Own Cafe...
This is the owner... who mentioned that he paid RM2K to have his picture painted in the shop..
We were their first customers... I guess...
We had the whole shop to ourselves.... 
This is really the best time to visit Penang on a weekend... 
Now no crowd, no queue, easy parking... 
We ordered one bowl of Assam Laksa.... 
And a bowl of Lemak Laksa... 
Both were equally good even though they taste differently.... 
I have bookmarked this shop for future laksa-ing... LOL... 
And two glasses of mixed fruit juice plus 6 springrolls which I have forgotten to take picture!
Oh no, I cannot call myself a food blogger now... LOL...
After our Laksa tasting, we dropped by at the Kuih Culture
along Kimberley Street for some desserts... 
I did not take pictures in this place at all... 
Confirmed... cannot say I am food blogger liow!

    Oh, thanks for recommending this place. I must bookmark it too. Are the laksa prices higher than the air itam stalls? If yes, maybe that is the reason, you all are the first customers there.

    All good! Penang Hokkien mee, no prawns? I remember last time there were one or two, at least. Also called Penang har mee.

    I bet most places are not crowded now, and it would be fast to get a table.

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....
