Superb Games In Badminton Super Series

WOW..WOW... OUR BADMINTON CHAMPIONS!

Today or should I say yesterday, it was a very (3x) exciting afternoon for me...and for the rest of the badminton fans in Malaysia, I guess....
For the first time, Malaysia managed to snitch three championship trophies in a row.... Oh, by the way, I am talking about the Super Series Badminton held in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah....

I was glued to my sofa for few hours continously... (exaggerating a bit la)
First match was Lee Chong Wei... won Peter Gade... straight sets... (wa lau..eh...)
Second match were Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong against the Korean pair... (smashing!)
Third match were ladies' doubles Pei Ty and Ee Hui against Indonesia pair ... (GREAT!)
All straight sets leh...

They were so "geng" this time.... maybe it was our homeground? No la.. I think they played perfectly well today.... home ground actually more pressured, don't you think so? How do they tackle the mental stress, I wonder, so noisy with all the wooo wooo....waaaa waaa.. haiyoh, they don't shiver meh? Geng, very geng....



Oh, why am I so excited about that???? Crazy or not, I am going to watch the repeats again in Astro 816 this evening.. again and again if time permits....

By the way, got free holiday for us or not???? Dream first.. *yawn*

    I watched the Super Series Master Finals as well. Peter Gade don't play like he used to be in his 20s. I saw him play during that time. He was fast and powerful smash.

    I think Lin Dan will still be Lee Chong Wei bogeyman for a long time.

    Good to see our pairs doing well

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....
