On The Roads To Pan Heong, Batu Caves

TIME ROCKETS IN IPOH....

Few days passed very fast and before we knew it, we have to hit the roads again... back to Johor to our little nest.  Time to move on and we started our journey around 10am, filled up the car to the brim with luggage and mostly occupied with food stuff including Ipoh pomeloes! 

It was a long journey back to Johor and on the way, we stopped at Pan Heong, Batu Caves for our lunch.  As expected, the crowd was there as usual for we reached at the most peak hour at noon.  But their number system is fair, first come first serve... within 10 minutes we have our table and seats ready for us.  We had a simple lunch, just four dishes and we thought they were not enough.  We ordered a plate of noodles at the last minute but it ended up being "packeted" for we were really full by then.  No waste, the packet of noodles was for our dinner when we reached Johor around evening by then. 
On the highway... no heavy traffic, fine weather too.. 
Both of them took turns to drive the six hours journey.... 
while we ladies sat comfortably at the back and dozed off most of the time... 
Waiting for our turn.... 
And waiting for our food which came in less than 15 minutes... 
Flat noodles beneath the pool of eggs and other ingredients... 
Their "springy" Fish Cake... 
Croaky porridge with century eggs... 
Fried Fermented Pork Belly....
And the price came to.... 
*ooopsss.. I forget*
But I remember I am not the payer... that is why conveniently not in my mind.. 
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....
