Our First Cornbeef On St. Patrick Day

IT WAS ST PATRICK'S DAY THE NEXT MORNING WHEN WE WOKE UP...
We were told to wear green on this day... I don't know the reason why, too lazy to google about it, but to avoid getting "pinched" for not wearing green on this day, I just followed for the fun of it....
And so here we were in our green shirts.... 
Our very first morning waiting for our fresh pancakes to be served... 
Freshly done and served.... 
Forget about the fats... Butter is good for us, right!
After our breakfast, we paid a visit to my sister's MIL.... 
She has cooked a great feast for us... Cornbeef!
\
Our Chef sharpening his skills and we ladies again waited to be served... LOL...
Oh notice the difference?  
He quickly went to pull on a green shirt before he did this!
And that was our lunch for the day...
Our first Cornbeef meal on St. Patrick Day!

    Luckily you have a green top with you or else you will be pinched the whole day, hehehe. Your sister's mil looks good, may I ask how old is she. Keep up the good work writing posts about life in USA, I am sure all of us here love to read them.

    I never knew the history of St Patrick. Maybe I google and find out later.

    Pancakes! I want too. Cornbeef soup. Not sure I would enjoy it as it is an acquired taste.

    So everyone wears green on St.Patrick's Day. Wow! the whole town will be in green! Your sis's MIL looks good and she has a cute doggie! Your BIL is a great cook. I love pancake with honey but I haven't tasted corned beef with cabbage before.

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....
