Californian

Thanks again for providing helpful information. It's good to know that we could stay at the market a little longer if we wanted to wander around more.

Thank you. I’ll be sure to avoid that cabin!

Thanks so much for the information. Did your tour group just stick together at the temple or were you able to wander around on your own and then back at the bus? Did you feel it was sufficient time at the temple? Also, how about at Gekje Market? Was it difficult to find your way back to the bus? Did you buy anything at the market? Were you able to use a credit card? If you ate anything at the market, is there anything you would recommend? Thanks again for taking us along on your journey...

Thanks for your input. I like your idea of a cane, so I will packing my folding cane. I'm wondering if I should stop at a bank while I'm in Japan to exchange for some Korean currency. I don't a friend whom I can get the wun. LOL

This excursion has peaked my interest, so I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on how strenuous this excursion really is. I had hip replacement surgery and I'm doing better on walking up and down steps. I'm hoping I can just take my time and maybe not go all the way down....just enjoy the scenery? Did you get some Korean currency for this port? If so, where did you do your money exchange? Thanks for taking us along on your journey.

matymil, do you remember the cabin number?

What are the hours when bathing suits are required and what hours when it’s nude?

OK. Some just popped up.

Can't find any Princess gift cards on the Rewards site today. Wonder if there will be more to come....

Thank you PrincessDano and LeeW. Anyone else with the shore excursion credit? Did you have to book the excursion with your credit card beforehand, too? And then got it transferred to OBC once onboard?

I want to book an excursion using the Shore Excursion Credit I received on a promotion. When I go to pay, it does not allow me to use onboard credit. I only have a choice of credit card or paypal. Has anyone been successful in using this credit prior to sailing? My travel agent says I can only use it when I get onboard. However, by that time, the excursion could be sold out. Any suggestions??

Anyone have the current lunch menu for Mongolian Wok/JiJi’s??

I was on the Panorama in late March and they had a different lunch menu at JiJi's/Mongolian Wok than those currently posted on several websites. Instead of choosing the various ingredients for your lunch, you had the option to pick which type of protein you wanted (beef, chicken, shrimp, etc) and they would prepare it for you. I ordered the combo and it was delicious. I found out later that the shrimp dish was prepared differently than what I got. The beef dish was also prepared differently. Does anyone have a copy of that menu that they can share with us? Or if there is someone currently on the Panorama who can post the menu here, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I figured it out. You had your egg tart on a plate picture before showing your pictures of Lisbon.

Wow. Did you get that on the ship? If so, where? I live those egg tarts.

I have enjoyed reading about your trip in France and Barcelona. Eze and St. Paul de Vence were some of my favorites. Will have to try Rao if I ever get back to Barcelona. Would love to hear what you did in Lisbon. Keep the posts coming!

That place is the best. I still dream about them. Glad you were able to try them.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share all that information. Love it!

I want to use my credit for an excursion. LOL. Does anyone know how to use the "Shore Excursion Credit" for an excursion before getting on the ship. My personalizer asks for credit card or paypal information. It does not let me use the "Shore Excursion Credit"

I will be traveling to Aomori in the fall. Did you arrange for the taxi ahead of time? Which company did you use? Thanks in advance….

Thank you!

I am thoroughly enjoying your trip report. Keep it up! We will be in Kanazawa on a Princess cruise later in the year. A couple of questions that I hope you would not mind answering. We will be there on a Saturday. Can you buy the all day pass on board the bus? Where is the local bus by the port terminal? Did you use yen to buy the passes? If we take the ship shuttle, at which station do they drop you off and pick up? Thanks very much for your help!

I have just joined the party. Thank you so much for posting your adventure. Do you remember the name of the coffee shop/bakery where you got your croissant?

I cancelled a specialty dinner and received a new gift card number via e-mail within a week. I want to say in a couple of days, but within a week for sure.
