Cruise with Royal Carribean 2016 - Day 4 & 5

Last full day, on the fouth day (3 March 2015), is when the ship cruised back to Singapore.
In the morning, I met up with the family for breakfast at Windjammer Cafe.
Oh, I love the wide selection and we should have went for it from the start!
My mum and grandma had it since the first morning.
Their biscuit is so good and its better than the one in Popeye.

Saw a table of origami using towels.
Cute aren't they?

After food, we went to rest awhile before going for a swim.
The pool is not very big and it is salty water, not chlorine water.
We also get to soaked in the Jacuzzi.

After the swim, all of us got tanned because we swam during the hottest hours of the day, no one applied sunblock (even though I brought it) and also the pool is salty.
I can see my tan line even till today. :(
And at one point of time, my skin even peeled, which is the second time in my life my skin peeled after tanning.
I think I must be having karma cos I kept laughing at my bro's peeling skin. =X

Since the cruise was cruising the whole day, the casino opened the whole day.
So, we went to try luck again.
On this day, I try to win back the losses and so I did, just win back small.
I guess I was really really lucky.


Back to room to rest for awhile and saw rabbit! :D

My red face. D;




Not sure what show is it, we just went inside and I saw Fiona and Puss In Boots and just took a snap of them. Haha~


We actually went to Dragon Lair because the programme was Karaoke Party Time.
It's not a place where you sings in a room but at a open stage.
However, due to songs limitation (Doesn't have the song dad wants to sing), we left the place.

We went for a later dinner.







This is durian pudding that some of them were waiting for since Day 1.



The last family photo (excluding Sis-in law, and dad's friend) with our friendly waiters. :D
The other waiters had performed Gangnam style dance for us. Entertaining.

The last night, we didn't sleep early.
Dad wanted to explore the area so we went to "Dancing Under the Star Deck Party" at the Pool Deck.
People were dancing with the staffs and we also get to watch bartender juggling liquor bottles.
My sis and I also danced a little to the songs that we were familiar like Gangnam Style and Macarena. Haha.. it was fun.

After that, we went back to Dragon Lair for another activities - Farewell All Request Night with DJ Armani.
Below is a picture of a empty dance floor.
Slowly, people came in to dance and drink.
We didn't dance but watching people danced, while we drank Heineken.


The last day, which is Day 5 (4 March 2016), slept for about 4hr before waking up for breakfast.
Did the last minute packing, and we were out of the cruise at around 10.30am.

Overall, I had a good experience with the family and with Royal Caribbean.
However, I am not sure when will be my next cruise trip.
It is good for a bigger family to enjoy together but I guess I wouldn't go if its only the two of us.
I would rather explore different countries or cities.

Lastly, I hope you enjoyed reading my posts.
You may go to my 'Travelogue' tabs to read on all the other travel posts.
See you~

Cruise with Royal Carribean 2016 - Day 3

We docked at Langkawi port on the 3rd day (2 Mar 2016).
Had in-room breakfast at the balcony, looking out to a great view.




After that, we went to Mum room to see their balcony view.

We didn't go for the shore excursion.
Instead, my mum, dad, G and I went out to the Langkawi Duty Free Mall to walk.
While my other family members stayed in the cruise.


When we were out of the cruise, I was surprised that we did not need our passport.
We just need our SeaPass to go back in.
Anyway, we got a cab and were dropped at Zone Duty Free shop.
The ride cost about RM15-20.
We walked about for 2-3 hours, only bought some food souvenirs before heading back to the cruise.


Once again, tried to take a photo of the huge ship but still fail. LOL.



Oh, on this day, I sign up fo the Singtel DataRoam Saver plan for Malaysia for a day.
It cost me $19 and I could share it with my family. LOL.
However, its really useless to buy data when you are on the cruise because when the ship is cruising, the data is really low and you won't be able to get connection.


Just a selfie that I sent to my girlfriends. Haha~

While my family were away to watch the Ice skating show, G and I went to look for activities.
Actually, I wanted to try the rock climbing but was a little afraid and also scare I'll broke my nails so in the end, we didn't try it.
Instead, we went for other activities like playing basketball, table tennis.
When I met up with my family again, we went to a game room and we played Big 2.
If I were to gamble with them, I'm sure I'll be the biggest loser. D;


Dinner at the same dining room again.




My dinner of the day is chicken rice.
And I love the rice and the sauce.
The sauce is not spicy, its not your usual chicken rice chill sauce.
My family asked for a total of 6 plates of the chicken rice's rice. LOL!



This toast with condense milk is tooooo sweet.
Its like I feel that I'll get diabetes after eating just 1 mouthful of it.
But its sis-in-law's favorite. -.-





Our usual table number and waiters.

Night spent at casino again.
The 2 slots machines became my sis and sis-in-law income generating machines.


Back to room and saw Mr. Monkey joining the bat. Haha~

G also bought me an advance bday present - MK bag!
I guess its cheaper than outside.
Bought it at less than USD300 which I think its quite worthy.
Just that the bag is a little small so I cannot put much stuff in.
Still, I like it.

Cruise with Royal Carribean 2016 - Day 2

On the second day (1st Mar), we docked at Port Klang, Malaysia.
My family and I didn't get off the ship on this day as we doesn't want to go KL.
Shore excursions are available if you are interested to follow the tours.
Alternatively, you can also hire a cab to bring you anywhere else but you need to be back by the stated time.




Woke up rather late so we missed out the in-room breakfast as well as the breakfast buffet at Windjammer.
Hence, we went for a brunch at Rhapsody in Blue Dining Room (Level 3).

I went to my dad's room first.
Then I was amazed that there is a double deck bed that my bro slept in.


Food in Rhapsody in Blue Dining Room is not bad.
Except that the waiter, who served us, is not attentive and inflexible. :/
Anyway, they have a salad bar which the selection are good.

This pasta that I order doesn't even taste like pasta to me at all.
Its tasted like mashed potato and I was telling my family that the shapes of the pasta look like maggots. -_-
In the end, I didn't finish up the food.
This is the only food that is not nice for the whole trip.

The below is what G's order and I love the crispy fr

Dad's lamb skewers.




After food, we went to walk around the place.
Then we participated the lucky draw for the Fashion Show.
Lucky enough of us to win the first prize, a Sapphire necklace. :D
G's name was called so obviously the prize belongs to me. Muahahaha~

Then we rushed off for Bingo Game.
A set of 4 cards cost US$32.
We all bought 4 sets and got a free bingo t-shirt and 1 extra card.


My lousy sets of card can't even get me to stand up for Bingo.
By the way, the way to win the game is to get the set of pattern that the emcee chose.
Only the 1st person to get the pattern, gets to win cash.

After Bingo game, G and I rushed to watch the Ice Under the Big Top.
As our SeaPass indicate an Even number assembly station, we have to watch it on this day.
While my other family has an odd number, they watched the next day.










After show, G and I went to the open area for a walk and sunset watching.







Trying to do a heart shape but why does it look like a demon laughing? Lol~

We went back to our room to change to formal clothing as it is a formal night.
When we got in, we saw a "bat".
It's really cute and we let it hang there for 2 days.

Photos with my sister.



Our dinner for the night, on the same table, same waiters serving us. :)



I had this duck rice.
The meat was really hard.
I had difficulty cut it and so the kind representative helped me to remove the bones.
Service is damn good but I felt embarrassed.




This 2 guys forever talkative. -.-
Pic taken by my sis.


Souffle is okay.



After dinner, my dad wanted to go up to the open area for a walk.
So I went with them again and this time we walked 1 round of the entire ship.
Wonder what they are looking at...

Movie playing at the Pool deck is Goosebumps.
I haven watch the movie, will find time to do so.
Few movies will be played on different timing on the big screen.

Came to the end of the ship.

Dad wanted to drink.
So we went to Boleros bar.





After drinking, went to casino for some games to try win back the US$32 that I lose on Bingo game. Haha~ :p
