Norwegian Jade day 6 Sea day

A sunny day today! Photo taken at the balcony.






Breakfast at Cagney for suite guests. Ordered French toasts and hubby ordered Scrambled egg with bacon. Took some stuff from the buffet bar as well. Love the smoked salmon and prosciutto. Hubby liked their pastry.









There was a $10 sales at Jasmine restaurant but I didn't get anything.

Hubby played a game of arcade basketball and then decided to go for a swim. I had a good massage in the hot tub again as the pool is too deep for me.



At Cagney restaurant for complimentary lunch for suite guests. I ordered spinach soup with grilled asparagus and prosciutto appetizer. My main entrée was French Dip Au Jus which is roasted prime rib with their house made French Roll. Hubby ordered mixed green for appetizer and seared scallop and shrimp with risotta for main. Superb asparagus and mixed greens.











Decided to go to the Grand Pacific Dining room which is also complimentary for all. Surprised that it was equally good. The suite dining must really change their menu as this one does. Ordered scallop gratin, watermelon, chocolate mousse and mango cheese cake. Wow the chocolate mousse is so nice! To think suite guest menu is just ice cream😅 Appreciate the seat near window too.















Collected my passport and passed by another complimentary dinning room for all. It seemed that it serve the same menu as Grand Pacific but less formal.


Our evening treat awaits us. Nice to have the chocolate and macaroons with our Rose wine.



Dinner at the Brazilian restaurant. My goodness 11 types of meat and we only tried 7. Beef and lamb taste better than the pork and sausage. There are 5 sides, butter rice,. Black bean, mashed potato, mushroom , fried yogurt. Took the lobster bisque and black bean soup from the salad bar. And of cos some salads. 











Last show at the theatre 'Elements' was so awesome. Seated first row but still can't figure out the trick behind the disappearing lady. Acrobats were amazing... Flying all over our heads. Think the stage a bit small.great performance! The captain and crew came to the stage to bid us goodbye... Going to miss the cruise. The couple seated next to us will continue the next 2 cruises to HK. They were on the ship starting from Rome two months ago.

Norwegian Jade Day 5 Penang

Assembled at Tankards at 6.30am. However the place was so empty that I thought we are at the wrong meeting place.  Finally alighted at the pier around 7.10am.







Started drizzling so just went to a nearby stall to eat breakfast. The roti bakar is so soft with crunchy crust and thick kaya.

Waited outside the pier for our grab. RM12 to Penang hill.should be around 16 mins to the base station.

Awaiting the funicular to the top station. Map of Penang hill.


Reached Penang hill and bought admission to the love pavilion and the place which they sell honey. They prepared the photos and souvenir so fast - RM10 for photo and RM10 for the magnet frame. The 2 in a set with frame at RM 35.

The cloud enveloping the town made the view so picturesque.










Near the owl museum and saw the first generation funicular train. Saw a big group of students here.




Way to the Habitat. A well preserved nature park. Entry is RM55 per pax
















Amazing place to capture the rich bio of a rainforest.








 Tree top bridge - more frightening than the sky bridge in Langkawi

Tree top walk in Habitat, Penang hill.






360 degree views (total 5) below. Drag or swipe for 360 degree view 


Funicular ride down Penang hill on 19 Dec 2019. 
Was shocked to hear that it broke down on 21 Dec 2019. Gratitude I was able to visit the amazing Habitat and made it back to the ship and continued with our cruise. Amazing rainforest! No wonder the King and Queen of Malaysia also visited the Habitat on 21 Dec 2019 at 4.30pm before the funicular train broke down after they left at 7pm. 



Lunch at Lorong Selamat in Penang. Second visit still loving the char kway teow.




 Went over to the Lee Jetty after lunch. So hot that I could not go to the Hai Long temple nearby.









 Went to the Wonderfood museum








Food should be fun. Thought it was an messy table and didn't realised it was Mona Lisa picture.




Photos taken by the photographer at Wonderfood museum in Penang. All 4 print out for RM80 and he was so nice to let me copy all the 10 photos into my USB.







Not all are big in the museum. Small miniatures at Wonderfood museum.



Walked back to our pier from Wonderfood museum. Passed by Sri Weld food court and saw that they have claypot chicken rice. Simply delicious!


Pleasantly surprised to see such a spread of treats awaiting us when we are back in our cabin.




Ordered dinner to our room again as we set sail. Beautiful sunset from the balcony.




Went to the theatre for a wonderful performance by ballroom dancers.





Listening to the band Sirius Four and drinking our cocktails. Hubby has Mr Worldwide and me Rebellious Fish.



Grabbed some snacks at O'Sheehan while listening to the singing and guitar performance from the Atrium. The roasted tomato soup was too salty. The shepherd pie would be better with beef alone rather than mixed with lamb. Like the ice cream but not the apple pie.
