Back from Crusie!

I am back from my holiday, it was the best holiday I ever had in my life. The first time I really don't feel like going home, it is just so fun. Everything from the time we were waiting at harbourfront to the time we got off at Phuket and also the time we spend on the last day.

Cant wait to have another of this soon!

Maybe we can take a 19 Night cruise, superstar leo, biggest of all, from Sydney to Singapore. Before that we can take a plane to Australia first, rent a caravan, baby will drive, enjoy a few days there before boarding the cruise. But, this will definitely cost a bomb. I saw the price of the 19N cruise online, its about $3-$4k per person. At least each person will have to bring up 10k for this holiday. But baby, we will save up and go the 2-3 years later right? =p

Okay, back to topic. Lets, let the pictures do the talking! Uploading the photos really kills, I don't know how many hours I spend doing it man.

So, we took a train down to harbourfront centre, because baby says its more exciting this way. It definitely is, no doubt, but do you have any idea how heavy my bag is? Shoulder hurts like hell right now and its all your fault. But I dont deny, my heart was thumping like crazy while waiting to board the ship. You are right, right now thinking back, the excitement really plays a part in this whole trip.

We took small bite there first before doing the necessary things. We did the collection of tickets and everything then we proceed to have our passport scan .



This picture was taken at the custom. We were stopped by an officer saying that photography is not allowed and asked baby to delete the photo but apparently he didn't la.

Before we board the cruise, there is this photo taking session by the crew. One of their money making time. I tell you, the photos are not cheap at all. These photos cause us $9.90 each, and it is only half the size of your hand. We had to buy it, thou they are not forcing us to, but it will be such a pity if you didnt. They are smart people, they make use of our weakness to earn money!

So, here is our room, the cheapest room available, the stateroom, no window. But it still looks cozy. Actually, we wanted to get the porthole room, but its all fully booked already. People actually booked the trip 6 months before leh.

First stop was buffet lunch at Mediterranean Terrace.

Then we proceed to touring the whole place.

Another photo taking session. Love this picture though. Happy happy sweet sweet couple.

Had our dinner at Pavillion, the chinese restaurant. Food was damn good, and best of all, you dont have to dress up.

After dinner, its time for some Jacuzzi! Imagine, jacuzzi everyday, damn shiok can?

There is not much thing you can do on the cruise, we tried our luck at the jackpot machine. Got bored after a while, what we had to do was keep pressing the button. So, we went over to play chess, this giant chess set and I won!

Went back to our room, and started cam-whoring at our cabin door.

Next up, was another round of FOOD! Super time! Eat and eat and eat and grow fat.

Next day morning, we didnt manage to wake up in time for breakfast. The ship already already reached Penang, but we did not get off. The packages they offer dont really sound attractive.

We started wandering around, baby even went to the arcade. There is absolutely nothing to do there.

Didnt not snap much photos that day, we had buffet for lunch then we went to Bella Vista for dinner. The whole place look so pretty, baby says looks like you are in the set of Beauty and the Beast. Dress code: Smart Casual. Very very good ambiance, how I wish I got a rose! Food was great, a 4 course dinner.

After dinner, went back to our cabin, oh ya, this is our toilet. Waiting for supper time!!!

Was walking at the lobby earlier that day, and those people grab us to take this photo. A green screen picture. Was edited la, how can we be in there. Cost us $20.

Next day morning, gotta wake up at around 7 plus, we are disembarking at Phuket. So we intended to go for breakfast first as we missed the first 2, however I realize that I lost my room card. Started to panic and flip the whole room upside down but still couldnt mind it. Until to a point we gave up hope,called the reception, lucky we are able to get a replacement card at the lobby with no charge. Or else, we cant even get off at Phuket .So you think, trouble over? Nah.. While happily putting my new room card into my wallet, I saw my original room card in one of the compartments. Had a fright for nothing. Baby nagged at me and we have to miss breakfast. Damn! Why am I so careless..


So, Phuket time, disembark the ship! Another photo! Look at our faces clearly. Baby says he wants to pose for this picture! Damn cute lah.

We board their mini ship, it can take 150 people, I think. There is many of these ship and they are kept on superstar vigro itself. That is how big our cruise is.

First stop was some tourist trap shop, ask us to buy jewellery. Where got money?! Haiyo... Next, we went to some mini theme park. You can choose to ride an elephant, see monkey show, snake show, or ATV adventure. But all have to ay individually. We opted for a 15 mins elephant ride and ATV adventure? Dont know whats is ATV? Read on!

Oh ya, 15 mins of elephant ride cost us 300baht each, which is about SGD15. ATV is more expensive. 800Baht each, SGD40. But its definitely worth the money.

This is ATV! Damn fun can, thou the sun was so bright and I got a sunburn. Baby had some funny accident, was laughing at hom throughout the trip.

After those activity, they brought us to their biggest shopping center. We had KFC for dinner. They are still using knife and fork okay? SO cute! It taste the same anyway. Haha.

Left the place later and they brought us back to the houbour. We can walk around there for a while, but we cant miss the ship, if not we will be stuck there. Haha. Did a bit of last minute shopping there. Very very rush but its was fun. I bought sims busting out for my ds, a pink racer top and a pair of fake havaianas. Baby got himself 2 pairs of that, and a tiger beer singlet!

Back to the cruise! Buffet dinner time! We did not go for the gala, dont find it interesting at all. No point going actually, still have to dress formal. So all the other restaurants book, only buffet dinner.

Its quite a good trade off actually. We waited for the lovely sunset. Finally get to see it. Was cloudy, and we only get to see a little of it only. Did alot of stupid thing while waiting for the sun to set. =P

At night, when we are at international water again, casino open. Baby says he wanna try his luck at the Blackjack table. So we went to learn first, then we bought $20 worth of chips to play. You know, mininum bet is $10 okay? Scarey la. We only can play 2 times wit our pathethic chips. After our first win, we realize how easy is it to win $10 within seconds. But, bad luck la, lost the money in the end. Still gotta stop baby from playing again. Now, I understand why there gamble addict existed. So after awhile, my turn to have itchy hand, try my luck at the table. Obviously, I had better luck than him. Managed to win back the money we lost. Felt so happy that we tried the table game. My mom didnt even play that before. I am so proud of myself. I won okay!!!

Random... Look! We have so many shoes!!!

Once again, buffet supper again! I can see myself growing fat already.

Last day, manged to wake up for breakfast, finally. Have to wake up so early. After breakfast, we went back to nap for 2 hours. Pigs!

The 3 horses at the lobby!

After we woke up from our nap, went for a round of Jacuzzi. Skip lunch, feeling damn full. Then went to play Bingo. And we had our early dinner at Pavillion, chinese food. Was special today because gotta check out at 7pm.

I guess that marks the end of our holiday. It is a very fruitful trip. Cant wait to have another cruise trip again. Thank you again baby for this trip! I really enjoy myself!!
