Shanghai, particularly, looked fantastic. Thank you so much for posting them.<BR/><BR/>I hope you have a fabulous time in HK. This time next year, to the day, we'll board Arcadia there ourselves and I have a countdown ticker on my laptop ticking away - talk about wishing your life away!<BR/><BR/>wishing you all well.<BR/><BR/>GillGillDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1549524304374457964.post-17894086677502385792009-03-11T22:56:00.000Z2009-03-11T22:56:00.000ZWow,fantastic, you have done it again, Shanghai is certainly a place that is gong to be on my must visit places.<BR/><BR/>You never fail to impress with this magnificent blog, wish i could afford to do a worldie, still one can be a virtual part of it thanks to you.<BR/><BR/>Enjoy HK, it is my favourite place of all the places i went to when at sea it is the only place that looked like you saw on a postcard. Other places although beautiful could not live up to that postcard image. The peak is a must from there you used to be able to see the old Kai Tak airport fitted snuggly in between the buildings.<BR/>Looking forward to pictures from HK.<BR/><BR/>Regards to all on the Arcadia.<BR/><BR/>Geoff and Julieta Witts PerthAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1549524304374457964.post-15004287833617241012009-03-11T20:34:00.000Z2009-03-11T20:34:00.000ZHi James<BR/><BR/>Just spent the last hour catching up on your blog entries, as always you have written them so well we feel like we are there with you, the Great Wall looked wonderful but probably hard work climbing all those steps, all worth it I am sure. I think there is nothing better than after a days sight seeing to come back to the ship, it really does feel like home when you are on a ship for that length of time.<BR/>Looking forward to your report from Hong Kong.<BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/>Mary K.Scottylasshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00335492166241879946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1549524304374457964.post-82111843270795840232009-03-11T16:53:00.000Z2009-03-11T16:53:00.000ZWow, James another wonderful entry in your blog.
