Epic ramen fail…

My goal is to try every type of ramen sold in the local Japanese grocery store. This one had no English anywhere on the package, so if there were cooking instructions, but how hard could it be? It’s cheap ramen.

Look how simple and organized everything is! This is gonna be *so* good!

Something horrible happened. It was inedible. I was so disappointed.

Brunch on the Queen…

The ongoing renovations on the Queen Mary have really improved the place. This room looked spectacular.

So much beautiful woodwork everywhere, and nary a squared off corner in sight.

Art deco at its finest.

The Queen Mary is really a very special place. It’s like a real-life time travel.

The food was great and the price included ship admission and parking, so we had the run of the place after.

There were plenty of holiday photo ops!

Beautiful art deco frosted glass panels. Glorious.

It was a nice, atmospheric, foggy day. You could almost imagine you were on a voyage.
