Day 1 Dinner of West Caribbean Cruise 2015!

Hello Miami! (Taken from the cruise ship)

Coming back from a 7-day cruise and recounting the amount of food that we ate is ridiculous!  So I’m only going to write about the dinner meals that we had from each night.

On this first night, we gathered at the Gold Pearl Restaurant on the lower level for the 6:00 p.m. dining time.   Continue reading →

Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. (Bayside, Miami)

Located at Bayside Marketplace, 401 Biscayne Blvd in Miami

Bubba Gump!!  I’ve been wanting to go to this restaurant to dine at ever since I heard about it from the others from last years’s convention!  It’s a well-known seafood chain restaurant all over the U.S. that heavily relies on decor and themes from the movie “Forrest Gump”.  I finally had the chance to try this restaurant out after our team booked a reservation for all of us on the last day of Miami before the cruise.   Continue reading →

Lunch at Red Rocket 192 Grill

Located at 3111 Convair Drive in Mississauga (Toronto Pearson Airport) [Terminal 1, After-Security (USA), Level 2 Gates. Near Gate D51/F51.]

Wheee!!  Boarding to Miami in 2015 in February in the dead of winter!  I remember last year when we boarded the plane right before a snowstorm hit Toronto and the flights right before mine were cancelling left, right, and centre.  This year, we were able to fly without worry and everything went off without a hitch.  It was so good that we even assembled together for breakfast after passing through customs!   Continue reading →

Weekly Photo Challenge: Rule of Thirds

Windsor Arms Hotel. May 2010

It took way too long for me to find a photo in my vast collection of photos which resembles the “Rule of Thirds” technique of photo-taking.   Even then, this isn’t a proper example of what the Rule of Thirds means.  I need a more obvious subject and a nicer “bokeh” effect.   Continue reading →

Weekly Photo Challenge: Symmetry

Carnival Splendor, Miami. February 2015

Last week, I was stuck on a cruise ship.  Oops, let me rephrase that.  I was enjoying my time fully on Carnival Splendor while most people were stuck in their jobs in the middle of February.  That sounds better, doesn’t it? 😛  I took many pictures around the cruise with and without people.  Here’s one without a face in it that is symmetrical.   Continue reading →
