Choppy Waters On The Pacific Ocean

CHOPPY WATERS... but that did not hinder our meals at all times.  

The first Royal Caribbean cruise was in 2019, cruising from Singapore to Phuket and then back to Singapore.  That trip was very memorable cos I went with my siblings and we had a wonderful time family bonding then.  The cruise was smooth sailing, perhaps due to the sea waters along the Straits of Malacca.  We could not feel any choppiness at all.... 

However this cruise to Mexico, we could felt the rough waves at certain moments even when we were eating.  Not so much when we were walking, only when we were sitting down and having our meals.  However, we were not seasick, that is a good thing.  In fact I had three good night sleep while the ship rock-a-bye baby me... LOL.... 

During one lunch meal, we had our meal facing the sea.... 
Not so crowded during lunch hour... 
Maybe they prefer the international buffet style...
As for us seniors, we like to be served... hahahaa...

The meals we ordered.... 
Someone likes Escargot.... (snails)
They are quite pricey...
Pumpkin soup....
Calamari as starters....
Baked cod...
Seafood pasta...
Cannot remember what this one is... 
Some kind of fish fillet...
Cakes and ice cream is a must... 
LOL...

    Baked cod! We had cod steamed and deep fried at our dinner that night here, two HUGE slabs of it, when my cousin from Kuching came over to visit me. Always glad when people come & visit, good excuse to go out and eat...a great change from the usual daily routine.
    Never been on a cruise. I always have this feeling that I would feel seasick even before I step on the ship. LOL!!! I'm not so adventurous!

    The snails are expensive? I thought food is all free on board, included in the package? I like to eat cakes but not so much on cream but ice cream I like, not whipped cream.

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....
