Cruise Vacation | Happy Moments Aboard the Gulangyu

🌟 Starting off with a five-star review! My first-ever cruise experience exceeded expectations—perfect for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommended for anyone curious about cruise travel! · Itinerary｜Hong Kong – Okinawa (overnight stay) – Hong Kong｜6 days, 5 nights · Scenic Experience｜We set off just as a typhoon warning was issued, and Naha’s weather forecast showed constant 🌧️. I was worried about seasickness, gloomy skies, and being stuck on the ship [facepalm]. But we got super lucky—enjoyed both sunrise and sunset (p13-14) and even got sunburned in Okinawa 🌞. · Service｜Service was top-notch 💯! Every staff member was incredibly friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable. Special shoutout to the restaurant staff for their quick responses and the housekeeping team for neatly folding our pajamas [thumbs up]. · Dining🍽️ (p5-8): Tried three complimentary restaurants, and the food was generally light in flavor. Ended up devouring two plates of Lao Gan Ma chili sauce to feel satisfied 😆. Some of the small cakes in the dessert section were surprisingly delicious 😋. · Room Environment (p10): The window-side spot was perfect for watching the waves all day 🌊. The room had two universal power outlets, but I recommend bringing your own toiletries, slippers, and tissues. I brought a disposable bedding set this time, which was a game-changer 🥰. Don’t forget to pack a thermos! · Entertainment (p15-17): The activities were diverse, and I managed to join almost everything I wanted to. Even enjoyed live performances by an island band for two consecutive nights 🎶 [shy]. 👉 Not as many older folks as I imagined—there were quite a few young people too! 📝 Just jotting down some travel notes—the scenery along the way was even more stunning than the photos!
