new Royal Caribbean room service menu and new food menu in dining rooms

At this link you can see the new Royal Caribbean room service menu http://www.shipcruise.org/royal-caribbean-menu-room-service/ and also the new food menu in the main dining rooms on Royal Caribbean ships. RCL started the implementation of their new menu in August 2012 with the Freedom of the Seas, and now only 3 ships still operate with the old menu. The new menu has some strange but interesting options - some complimentary, some cost extra. Complimentary alternative options (available each day of the cruise) are the "Chef’s Inspiration" and the "Classics", and at additional charge are the dishes from the "Celebrate Cravings" - lobster $25, surf and turf $35 and steak for $15. And this is the link to the Royal Caribbean bar menu prices http://www.shipcruise.org/royal-caribbean-alcohol-policy-drink-prices/ (the cocktail menu) if you are interested in how much are the Royal Caribbean ... more »

China- Pandas, Beijing, and The Forbidden City

{Pandas, Beijing and the Forbidden City -- here is a little on Beijing and the Forbidden City for you.

See you again

3rd of June, I visited a village called Giethoorn. Before this, I had not heard of it, nor did many of dutch people. The most enchanting encounter happened to me in that small village.

I met a decent boy that day. He generously showed my friend and I around the canal on his boat. We chatted and laughed, definitely shared a good moment. The final bus was at 6:20 pm, so we had to say goodbye before we had chance to spend more time together.

It was a brief, yet a lovely day for me. I wouldn't wanna have it become just a memory. However, he doesn't have facebook or skype. And I forgot to ask for e-mail address. I try to ask around if anyone knows someone from Giethoorn. But so far it's still a dead-end.

Holla if you have some leads or information for me!

p.s. I have his first name but I don't know how to spell it. It sort of pronounce like "Dreman". more »

Just back from the Batad Rice Terraces

I did a trip to the Batad rice terraces from Manila last week. Quite a lot of info on my blog about how to get there, tour costs, using a guide, what to see, where to stay and eat etc.

In short, if you are in Manila, this is definitely worth going to see, even if you only have a short time, it is worth the 9 hour journey.
