Christmas Gifts

Christmas is around the corner but I have not done any shopping as yet. Even the Christmas tree is not up, it is still lying in the store room. My family have other plans for Christmas, hope it will be a wonderful affair. (Please grant me annual leave.... )

 Yesterday I received a phone call from Pos Laju, he asked me where I was....  he has a parcel for me, I told him to deliver it to my office, he said he would.  Waited till 5pm, he didn't come, so I called him again, he said he would come to my house again at 5.30pm.  I waited till 6pm, he didn't come, I left for my dinner.  Half way through dinner, he called me saying he was in my house!  Oh dear... then I suggested that he wait for me in his office since I was around that area.  At around 7pm, I went to his office and he was there waiting for me... LOL... What a Wild Goose Chase... but at least I got the parcel... finally.....
Just For Me... Thank you, dears!
Elin and I received these Butterscotch Caramel and some TV snacks!
And I can't wait to try the caramel... haven't taste this before... 
Must go get a loaf of bread tomorrow!  LOL...

Then this morning I had a very fruitful breakfast with another blogger friend...(is there such a word?)
One of my favourite stalls in First Garden... 
This lasted me till dinner! 
I received this bag of pressies from her....
Most of all, I am so surprised to see this Christmas Money Box!
"MERRY CHRISTMAS CLAIRE"
What a wonderful gift!
Thank you for the yummy breakfast and gifts!

  4. Cute ornament! The food looks delicious, too! What kind of soup is that? I'll have to try it. It looks amazing!

    Good luck with finishing everything for Christmas. I haven't started decorating yet either. My tree never goes up until Christmas Eve lol. I need to finish a bit of Christmas shopping too. All my daughter wants is a pair of snooki slippers for Christmas so I guess I should go and order them soon lol.

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....
