After posting a brief account of my recent cruise from Singapore to Thailand to Vietnam and back to Singapore, I got a lot of requests to see more pics of my trip. Okay, if you insist (I always love sharing my travel pics).
If, however, you are more interested in

I don't have many great photos of Singapore, though it's a beautiful city. It was a humid, raining day. I did get to the Singapore Flyer, a massive Ferris wheel and below is probably my best shot with it in the background (if you look closely).

Dining in opulence on the
Mariner of the Seas, Royal Caribbean:
Just outside Bangkok, Thailand:
Reckon I could sneak one of these onto the balcony of my new place? Every good balcony needs a dragon fountain...
I love all ancient ruins and/or intricate workmanship. It's great when I get both in the one place.
The Sanctuary of Truth, Pattaya, Thailand:
Floating market, Pattaya, Thailand:
Vietnam wasn't as pretty, but I still enjoyed it.
Okay, I have a gazillion more pics, but that's enough for now.

Where have you travelled to recently? What's your favourite travel destination?
I see the Ferris Wheel.
ReplyDeleteI think that dragon fountain would look great at your place.
Cool you got to see Thailand. My parents saw it but I was too young to go at the time.
Feel free to share as many photos as you like!
You'd be scrolling down forever if I put in all the pics I wanted to share!
DeleteDon't go on a cruise if you want to stay on your diet... CHECK! Wow, that looks impressive, Lynda. I'm happy for you.
ReplyDeleteIf you thought that dessert looked impressive... wait, you were talking about the dessert, right? ;)
DeleteGood one, Lynda.
Deletegiggle
DeleteBeautiful photos. No, don't go on a cruise if you're on a diet. Just get good and skinny beforehand and then go enjoy all of the 24-hour dining.
ReplyDeleteand go on a diet afterwards ;)
Deletedid you wear rich ladylike hats on the cruise?
ReplyDeletealas, no.
DeleteWell, there's always... next time.
Deleteor not... ;)
DeleteI'd go on the cruise. That dessert looks so yummy. You've got some really awesome pictures here. And your IWSG post was really helpful too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Natalie
DeleteLove that dragon fountain!
ReplyDeleteHmm, I put pics up on my blog today, but they are nowhere near as exotic as yours. :)
I shall come and visit!
DeleteYou sure got to see some great places. That is one big cruise ship indeed, which I suppose is obvious, but never been on the inside of one at our sea.
ReplyDeleteThey are definitely impressive on the inside.
DeleteGreat pictures, Lynda! Sounds/looks like you had a marvelous time.
ReplyDeleteYep, a brilliant time!
DeleteThanks for sharing these Linda! I am adding this to my list of travels to do. Been thinking about going on another cruise and with Royal Carribean! I am sure it was a fun but much needed restful vacation for you. I am leaving Maui today, heading back to cooler Canada today after two weeks in heat! And have a ton of pictures to process.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for a cooler climate! We've been having heatwaves in Brisbane! Thank goodness for air-conditioning!
DeleteThanks for sharing. I've heard Thailand is amazing.
ReplyDeleteThailand is pretty impressive.
DeleteSuch beautiful pics, Lynda! I'm not much of a traveler myself, but I do enjoy hearing about others' adventures.
ReplyDeleteI'd forgotten how much I enjoy travel
DeleteWow! What a trip you took! That would be a once in a lifetime trip.
ReplyDeleteIt is! And now on to the next one...I wonder where that will be...
DeleteBeautiful pics! Definitely a part of the world I'd love to visit one day!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's well worth the visit.
DeleteThese are stunning shots, Lynda. I am in the same mind frame. You can never take enough shots of our beautiful planet.
ReplyDeleteToo true!
DeleteWonderful pictures. Thank you for sharing them.

You are most welcome, Juneta
DeleteHi Lyn. I loved reading your post on book covers at IWSG, but I love these pictures even more. Now I want a slice of that cake. Diet? Well, that must be next year!
ReplyDeleteI'm thrilled you loved the pics. I want another slice of that cake!!
DeleteHi Lynda, your cruise sounds lovely, the pictures are wonderful. I just took a short vacation to Hyderabad with friends, for 4 days last year in July. After that haven't traveled anywhere.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful short vacation.
DeleteAh, you were in my hood, Lynda. Would have invited you to a cuppa in Singapore, had I known :)
ReplyDeleteDamyanti
Oh!! I didn't realise!! Singapore is such a beautiful place.
DeleteGreat photos! Thanks for sharing. Heading over to see your post. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Karen
DeleteHi Lynda - lovely to see a few of your photos - good mix too - I've never been east or for that matter on a cruise ... but it all sounds so interesting - and a nice break after the move ... cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteA wonderful break! Thanks, Hilary
DeleteOh, gorgeous, gorgeous! Love your photos. And Royal Caribbean--cool! That's the cruise line I'm going on for my Bahamas cruise in August, on the Allure. Can't wait. Thanks for sharing more pics. :D
ReplyDeleteTake me with you!!!!!!!!!!! ;)
DeleteThank you so much for sharing pictures of your trip with us. Love seeing the architecture! I think that dragon fountain is awesome! Wow! :)
ReplyDelete~Jess
And the dragon fountain is huge too
DeleteOh my heavens it's all so beautiful! I've never traveled out of country before, but I really want to visit Canada, England, and a Dutch country (Denmark, Sweden, The Netherlands ...) some day!
ReplyDeleteAbi | theleft-handedtypist.blogspot.com
I haven't been to Canada either. Would love to visit one day too.
DeleteI love all the photos, but especially the cake! I loved Paris and Dublin.
ReplyDeleteParis is special and Dublin too has it's own wonderful charm.
DeleteSuper cool pics! Looks like a great trip:)
ReplyDeleteIt was. Thanks, Mark
DeleteHow fun to see your photos! My husband traveled to Singapore last year, and he really enjoyed it. I hope to someday do a trip like yours! I went to Monterey last weekend! Not as dramatic a change, especially since I'm from California, but I loved it! :)
ReplyDeleteEven little trips can be wonderful
