Hi Amber,

We truly enjoy our cruise very much.

The ship is quite new with modern look. The room is very comfortable. We enjoyed every meals on board. Lots of varieties with good qualities and different menu for everyday. Their cooking was very good too. We signed up for all optional tour except Ship lock as my husband needs to have business meeting in Yichang.

I am very impressed with the cruise manager who was concerned about us meeting with Lily tomorrow and offered to call Lily to ensure that we would meet Lily before going for the excursion. I gave him the number and he arranged with Lily to come up to the cruise to meet us. That's very kind of him.
