two seats then three then two again so it was very large (similar to
our one to Hawaii). 2. Everyone boards the plane at the same time.
They don't do it by seats. It was weird because you would think that
you would have to wait for a lot of people to sit down but we didn't.
(We decided it is just Americans that make boarding a plane such a
struggle). 3. (This is the important part). YOU WATCH THE PLANE
LEAVE. They have screens that show the view from the cockpit.
Yeah….I'll give you a few seconds to process this……………………..So yes,
when you leave, the camera is pointed straight ahead (like you're the
pilot) and then when we lift off the view changes to a straight down
view (like bird's eye). It is somewhat nauseating. 4. They make you
open the window shades for take off and landing (plus the video) so no
matter where you look you are looking outside. 5. They announce
turbulence ALL of the time. They take it very seriously.
Anyways, Shanghai….I think Shanghai was my favorite city skyline. We
disembarked the plane and the rest is history. No it's a pain in the
arse to find a ship when you've never been to the dock before. We
didn't know if it was 20 minutes or 2 hours so we weren't inclined to
take a taxi (we couldn't really ask because of the language barrier
thing). We decided to take the subway. Bahahah. Funny joke. When
we got off we had no idea so we started walking towards holes in the
skyline (we thought this was a good idea because our ship is on the
water and you can't have buildings on water). A good six or seven
kilometers (that's right. I've started thinking in terms of
kilometers and Celsius) later we found the harbor!!! Go us.
Jen's backpack broke the second we boarded the ship. It ended our
adventure SOO perfectly.
That night…
