A Day Trip From JB To Singapore JEM

Aaron took one day off to "teach" us how to take the causeway bus from our area to Singapore...  The bus comes in every fifteen minutes from Giant Supermarket, very convenient and it cost only RM5 for one way.  It was around 11.30am when we parked our car here and in less than ten minutes, the yellow bus came and ferried us away.....
One way is RM5 and coming back from Singapore cost $4sg. 
The journey took more than an hour to reach JEM in Boon Lay.
 We reached Jurong East Mall around 1pm noon... 
Here at the entrance with the Pandas' family...
Aaron took us to Llao Llao Yogurt at the mall...
 Seems to be a very popular spot especially among ladies during lunchtime!
Healthy yogurt for lunch, so I was told...
If the Q is long, then it must be Good?
Fresh fruits in between and it cost $6.50.... 
Well, worth trying out since my country does not have it yet.. 
hahahaha...
Walked around the adjourning malls and the vicinity 
and ended up at Earle Swenson....
Same family as Swenson but different menu...
Free flow of healthy salad @ $13.00....
 And we ordered just  Chicken Wraps to share among us... $18.90
And a complimentary Ice Cream Cake ....
 Free for the Birthday Boy!
Yes, that is one of the reasons we came in here...
hahahahaa... 
Precious cake being blown.....
On the way out of JEM, we came across the Westgate Social Kiosk...
Feeling curious, we hang around here....
We took a portrait picture... 
Playing with the frames on the giant screen...
Finalized Picture done....
And then we clicked "Send" and it went floating up the "sky screen"
and finally settled on one spot up on the "tree"...
Well, I guess our picture is not up there anymore the next day.... 
Just a moment of "Fun"
And after that, we took the causeway bus near the mall and back to Johor...
Few hours passed by pretty quick....
It was almost 6pm when we reached the Giant...
So now we know how to take the bus, we can go anytime we like the next time!

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....
