Ship card is very important, be sure to take care of, because all consumption recorded on board the ship tab, if you lose your ship card must have the service centres report to the five-story, or someone else using your ship card to you to pay the Bill.
Buffet is good, there are at least dozens of varieties, restaurants are also very, very much, eating empty plate away immediately. Buffet was on the wall on the wall, in the days that followed almost every day, had plenty of time on the ship, without Internet access, you can eat five or six meals a day.
A plate of a plate on end, freedom to mix, although the varieties of vegetables are replaced every day, virtually all but the main ingredients are the kinds, beef, pork, egg and a variety of bread, cake, dessert, green leafy vegetables are rarely.
Delicious beef, another disk. Ship's staff from 48 different countries, is also very international, foreign crews are mostly speak English, also a little Chinese, but a lot of waiters, language is not a problem.
Meal, announcements can go to the room, shipping room number on the card. A corridor on both sides of all rooms is very dense.
Room size was small, but clean, staff are cleaned every day. Rooms with disposable slippers, basic toiletries, toothpaste, toothbrush, shampoo, body SOAP.
Every day staff will be sent to in-room daily, will tell you that the next day's itinerary and all entertainment programs, promotions and other information, look is very important.
Bathroom in the room, quite narrow, but basic facilities.
Valuables in a safe deposit box in the room.
Only two sockets in the room, preferably with a Plug and terminal block.
Settled first on the ship turn around, familiar with the surroundings, just everything was fresh on board. 16:00 sailing, prior to that there was a fire drill, everyone to attend.
The weather is terrible today, or in the Sun on the deck should be very leisurely.
On board there is a small basketball court, surrounded by nylon nets had gathered around. Large cruise ships at sea is also relatively stable, and does not affect all kinds of sports.
Ports at the same time docked another cruise, bulky.
Cruise also planned out running routes, running tourists need not worry.
Each tanker has several of these balls, and don't know what to do with.
Outdoor pool was too cold, warm water when swimming.
In these days on the cruise just hosting the Miss World finals in China everywhere, tall and lanky high face value girls, good looking forward to it.
Deck has a distinctive dining areas, but this is to book in advance, really good.
Ships have not opened, duty free shops did not open, but also duty-free goods on board, there are a variety of international brands of cosmetics, handbags, watches, jewelry, and so on, the price cheaper than the domestic market, and often have special offers.
Time to fire drills, visiting the 6 layers of the magic theater, which is one of the ship's largest performing arts venues, wonderful play every night.
There is a variety of wine on board, drinks to be paid for separately.
Duty free shops in the watches, different brand price varies.
On board there are Internet cafes, but didn't see anyone come over Internet access, may be wary of the high cost of it, after all, about $ 50 a day is too expensive.
There are several bars on board, nothing can come and sit, usually with singers.
Final of Miss World China candidates are on board, their collective debut show talent, wants the support of tourists.
Most of the candidates are students under 20 years of age.
In the evening time, in accordance with arrangements on the ship card dining time, came to the Pujiang hotel, major suppliers of food, a la carte according to Western etiquette.
Restaurant is large, clean and bright, staff trained, warm service.
After seating on the waiter will pour you a cup of hot water, but you can have a glass of orange juice, there is no other beverage.
Eat the bread, usually western portions are small, if you do not have enough to eat, then eat some bread. But at sea onboard a cruise ship does not have to worry about not getting enough to eat, because 12:00 11-storey cafeteria open late at night, ready to eat.
Western menu is relatively simple, usually divided into appetizers, salads, main courses, desserts, each of which had three or four options, you can only select one, eating a dish after dish. Appetizer too small and delicate.
Main dishes are replaced daily, of which there is a chef's recommended dishes are the most distinctive, recommended to taste.
Dessert choice of seven or eight, which one to choose is really a big problem.
Good caramel pudding, sugar Coke was just right, a little bitter.
Beside the swimming pool with hot tub, like hot springs, a dip is very comfortable. Recommended bring bathing suits, because to buy bathing suits on the wharf is very expensive.
In the evening, ships on the high seas, the opening of a casino, such scenes is not usually visible in the country.
But playing well, not obsession.
Bar's atmosphere is also good, the environment is graceful.
Feeling a little hungry, came to the 11-story cafeteria to eat before going to bed and, thereafter, to eat a big meal before going to bed every night, can you not fat.
Freshly made sushi taste good.
We think there's plenty of visitors in the evening.
Today has been very late, mobile phones can receive network signals, not boring, and the next day is the most sad, all day without the Internet.
---------------------------

Morning rituals of pick up the phone, found that without the Internet, suddenly it feels like the people are bad.
When idle, good appetite up, to eat in the cafeteria, to pass the time.
Now tomorrow morning on the high seas to get to Japan, all day was the ocean.
The weather was bad, Seaview tables on the deck seems to have lost its luster, Dim.
Remind is that cruise just smoking, rooms have detection devices, will be fined $ 250 after smoke was found. Only smoke in some fixed point, ashtrays where smoking can.
If the Sun is shining, to the deck eating breakfast is also a very good choice.
Bow and stern look, almost the same scenery.

Catering directors meet with visitors on the ship and asking for advice about tourists on board catering.
Then follow the catering department staff in batches into the kitchen, is trying to make dessert, which was spectacular.

Ship's staff and tourists greeted warmly, the kitchen supplies nearly every day dishes.
Expatriate staff were very friendly.

There's lamb chops, and a enough if the main course, with the waiter said to one more.
Dessert is exquisite.
However, did not feel full do? Goes to 11 floor, where the buffet is waiting for you at any time.
Buffet is not reason enough to eat.
