My Red Babe At Car Clinic

FOR THREE CONSECUTIVE DAYS, I have to go to the car clinic....
Wednesday, did servicing on my car and that cost around RM150...
Thursday, servicing on my girl's car and that doubled the amount RM313 for a small car...
Friday, took my car again for repair this time... fixed front and back brakes and that cost RM220.. and that summed up to nearly RM700....

For the first time in history this morning, I left the car with the mechanic and walked few doors away to have breakfast alone.  One hour later, my car was still not ready... so I sat there and waited for another hour or more before my red babe is given the green light to go....

Front and back brakes needed to be replaced.....
Front is RM95 and back is RM65
Workmanship is RM60
He has a faithful helper around him each day so I am told....
Not one by two..... 
They come each day to "help" the boss around 11am...
And after lunch, they will leave... 
I put up this post for self-reminder and information....
My car is around 11 years old... 
this is the second time the brakes are changed as far as I can remember... 
Other than the brakes, my car is still in good condition...
That is a relief to hear.....

    Lol! The faithful helper seems to like your sandal! You have taken good care of your car to keep it in tip top condition.

    It is important to take good care of your car. Especially more than 10 years old.

    It's good that you send your cars for regular checks. Women drivers like us need to ensure our cars are in tip top condition, otherwise we'll be really helpless when the car breaks down somewhere.

    Your car looks a bit like ours, Claire. I can't imagine how some people can afford more than one car.

    Never mind how much, can't place the price on one's safety! Always make sure your cars are in tip top shape. Drive safe!

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....
