Hotel Royal and Golden Sands Hotel, Batu Feringgi, Penang

CHECKING IN....

For the next two days, we stayed at this hotel at Jalan Anson.  Since the hotel was quite full, the front manager was so nice, he upgraded us to a suite room at the top floor without any extra charge.  There is a living hall outside the bedroom, however, it does not make any difference to us.  All we want is a nice king size bed that can accommodate the three of us.
Yes, it is big enough for the three of us... 
The Living Hall... 
A very spacious hall indeed.... 
The spacious bathroom... 
One tub and one shower with two sinks... 

During the evening, we had a good buffet dinner at Golden Sands Hotel, Batu Feringgi which was giving a promotion at around RM42 per person.   Some of the portions of food I took during dinner... 

After the heavy meal, we walked off some calories at the beach... 
There was one man band crooning out the songs of the 80s... 
Perfect for the three of us....

    The hotel looks quite "ancient" and of course luxurious at the same time. :D

    The furniture of the hotel looks a bit dated but as long as it is comfy and clean, it is good enough, the price of RM42 per person for a buffet dinner is very reasonable

    It all looks wonderful! Is that beef and smoked salmon? And a nice large hotel suite.

    RM42 for a buffet is cheap! I dun mind staying in any hotel as long as it is comfy and clean. I once stay at Continental Penang Road and it was noisy as the pub below opens till 2-3am....

    RM42 per person for buffet is such a good price! The salmon and roast beef look so tasty!

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....
