Pre CNY Lunch With Friends At Delight Restaurant

IT IS FEBRUARY... THAT MEANS I HAVE RETIRED FOR A YEAR NOW... 365 days have passed, the day when I retired is still so clear in my mind. I don't miss the office work at all but I do miss my colleagues who have worked with me before. Even though we do not work together at the same floor, we have so much fun being together with one another, during our tea time and lunch time gatherings.  That, I would never forget....

With this apps group, we still keep in contact with one another and when someone mentioned a gathering to commemorate a "Close Work Lunch" aka "Sau Koong Chau"... everyone readily agreed to the suggestion.  Never mind whether we are working or non-working, we really look forward to our getting together session!
And so our gathering is held at Delight Restaurant...
Refreshments sponsored by one of us retirees... 
While waiting for the rest to arrive, these was what we did.... 
*welfie-ing* and *yam-sing-ing*
These condiments were served as appetizers....
Our first dish!  
Loe Sang with stripes abalone...
Followed by the "Lang Poon" aka "Cold Dish"
The first dish itself has us half full already!
And we had steamed fish....
Special Kai Lan... Steamed stem with crispy fried green leaves....
And this dish appeared again... the one I had just few days ago.....
Last and not least, my ex-colleagues whom have been working together with me for umpteen years...
Yes, our group is getting smaller and smaller...
Some are being transferred and some have retired...
Anyway, big or small group, it does not matter...
It is the present that counts... 
And I hope we have more of these Food Sessions for joy and laughter!

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....
