SailorJack Posted May 30, 2016 Author #651 Share Posted May 30, 2016 sailor jack,Here is my review of our cruise from Japan to Hong Kong: http://www.cruisecritic.com/memberreviews/memberreview.cfm?EntryID=518503&et_cid=2531924&et_rid=17221689&et_referrer=Boards Your review has been most helpful in planning our trip, thanks. Can you tell me if any of the ports (Hong Kong, Nagasaki, Taiwan) were tender ports? I am assuming that Shanghai for sure is not one. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SailorJack Posted November 5, 2016 Author #660 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) Someone referred your post--my hubby and I are still laughing! Can't wait till you cruise again and post!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Glad you enjoyed it. Links to my other reviews are in my signature. Next cruise is in January - a three week Cruise from Singapore to Taiwan, Japan, Hong Kong, Philippines, and Viet Nam. If enough interesting things happen to generate a review it should be sometime in February. Jack Edited November 5, 2016 by SailorJack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyJoneses Posted August 5, 2017 #661 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Hi, Jack. Someone cited this review on your current review on the Celebrity board and I had to come back and read it again - it never gets old. Thanks again for a great review.

Every time I see this I think of the old Groucho Marx comment -"If I knew I was going to last this long I would have taken better care of myself." In the save vein, I should have done a better job editing it before posting. But thanks for your comment.:) Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted November 22, 2017 #670 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I’m glad someone brought this thread back because I️ read it for the first time! And all throughout I️ kept thinking...isn’t the Dream no longer in the fleet?? And then I️ finally noticed the date. [emoji5] Glad you guys survived and have enjoyed many cruises since!

Always Cruising Posted November 22, 2017 #671 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Love this! Great writing about a unique adventure - my first time reading it, so I appreciate its being brought back.

AKR2011 Posted November 22, 2017 #673 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I always love it when this review returns. Such a classic! Every cruiser should read this before they complain about issues that they have on board. Sailor Jack endured so much more than anyone ever should, and he handled it with so much grace and humor.

Sent from my iPhone using Forums You are correct - the Dream was sold and I think wound up in a s scrap yard somewhere.:( As you can tell from my signature we have continued to cruise with the next one in January on Princess.
