Rare JoePDX Posted June 5, 2017 Author #101 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Joe, thanks again for the wonderful thread!!! I wonder if you will fall in love with Myanmar as I did. I told several people that if i was 20 years younger I'd be trying to get a teaching job there. I fell in love with the people--they are trying so hard to rebuild and there are so many young people who are so earnest about democracy and the future. It would be a joy to teach there, I think. Hi Cynthia - Big reason why I want to visit Myanmar sooner rather than later, to see the emergence of their new way of life. Angkor Wat and Bangkok are not on this itinerary. We have been to Bangkok, spent 5 days there after our 2006 cruise on Nautica. On that trip we also visited Vietnam. Love Vietnam and hope to get back there some day. Just so many places to see on the list! Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbb Posted June 5, 2017 #102 Share Posted June 5, 2017 joe.... yeah, well that's my bad....I read Dubai- Shanghai ....and so Vietnam and Cambodia wouldn't be on Dubai-Singapore....but do go have a Sling!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JoePDX Posted June 5, 2017 Author #103 Share Posted June 5, 2017 You can always go to the Raffles for The Sling :D Did that in 2006 in the historic Long Bar, and highly recommended. Then came home and came up with my own version of the recipe. :cool: Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so many places to see on the list! Joe Super LOVED and very much appreciate all of these great details, pictures, etc., from your excellent adventure/trip involving Egypt, the Holy Lands, etc. While we have never sailed with Oceania, we have a booking on hold for Nov. 16-Dec. 6, 2018, Athens to Dubai with stops in Rhodes, Cyprus, Israel, Egypt, Jordan, Oman, etc. In reverse order, we would be able to enjoy many of your same, exciting stops in our first visit to these parts of the Middle East. If handy for you and/or any other experienced and smart travelers, have a few questions related to these areas and as first-timers with Oceania. 1. What is the biggest "secret", favorite place, best tips, etc., to maximized and enjoy time on the Nautica? Ours would be a twenty-day cruise with five sea-days. 2. The basic balcony room on this ship are little smaller than what we have previously done. Any tips to maximize on this limited cabin size or best places to find away from the cabin for hanging out, escaping, making your "haven", etc.? 3. Did the any-time dining work well in the evenings? Which of the two speciality dining places was your favorite? Why? Favorite meal treat while with Oceania? Will the main dining room do any "special requests" with advance notice? 4. For evening entertainment, any special highlights, super loves, best tips, etc.? As a side note, we are getting ready in later January 2018 to do our first visit to SE Asia. This includes Hong Kong, Vietnam, a seven-day sailing up the Mekong River, Cambodia, Angkor Wat, Bangkok, etc. Any special, added tips and insights for that part of the world? Places to avoid and/or your most favorite experiences there? THANKS to Joe!!! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio Enjoyed a 14-day, Jan. 20-Feb. 3, 2014, Sydney to Auckland adventure, getting a big sampling for the wonders of "down under” before and after this cruise.

Go to: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1974139 for more info and many pictures of these amazing sights in this great part of the world. Now at 189,644 views for this posting. Hi Terry - Sorry for the delayed resonse, haven't checked in on this thread in quite a while....First a thank you to you....I have followed you for many years from the Celebrity board. And have learned a lot from you too. :-) 1. What is the biggest "secret", favorite place, best tips, etc., to maximized and enjoy time on the Nautica? Ours would be a twenty-day cruise with five sea-days. I think of the former R-Class ships (from Renaissance Cruises) as small versions of the Millennium class ships. Well laid out, never a crowd (well Martini Bar can get crowded at cocktail hour).... Nice crew with really top notch service. And the extra touches...chilled towels in the gym changing rooms along with Gatorade and Water. Daily tea is quite special and the spread changes daily. The Grand Tea and Grand Brunch are also lovely. FOOD is top notch. The Chef comes through the Grand Dining Room most evenings to ask how things were, and he really listens. STICKY BUNS! You saw the pictures. Buffet items all served to you, rather than a free for all. Baristas in the morning for a hot beverage. Not sure about special requests - but certainly ask - if they can they will. 2. The basic balcony room on this ship are little smaller than what we have previously done. Any tips to maximize on this limited cabin size or best places to find away from the cabin for hanging out, escaping, making your "haven", etc.? The room itself is quite in line with the Category 2 balconies on the Millenium Class. Bathroom is small, but frankly has a surprising amount of storage. As for me, I'd rather have a small bathroom than a small room. Closet has ample hanging areas along with four or five drawers. I was easily able to stow our 20 days worth of clothes with no problem. Horizons on the top deck is wonderful for watching the sea and is usually quite quiet. I also enjoy the pool deck. There is usually pastries set out up there along with machines to make coffee drinks. The sun deck (which is free to Concierge and above staterooms) is also nice - very strong thallostherapy pool up there. I think they also sell daily passes, not worth spending a lot but consider it....for a splurge if nothing else. 3. Did the any-time dining work well in the evenings? Which of the two speciality dining places was your favorite? Why? Favorite meal treat while with Oceania? Will the main dining room do any "special requests" with advance notice? Always. Never more than a couple minute wait - our Maitre D' was excellent - always smiling. Even at peak times. My favorite specialty this time was Toscana. We had two wonderful meals there. Had one in Polo Grill, it was good, but Toscana really won my heart this time. That said, the Grand Dining Room is also wonderful! Toscana favorite - prosciutto wrapped shrimp - had it both nights and one night the sole which is deboned tableside. Polo the colossal shrimp cocktail. (yes I love shrimp!) The one thing I definitely remember from the Grand Dining Room is the Lyonnais sausage with potato salad. YUM! Talked to the chef about it that night and he told me the sausage is made in house. It's Jacques Pepin's reported favorite. Also at lunch each day is a sampler plate - all were wonderful that we tried! Usually as an appetizer. I posted a couple pictures of them.... 4. For evening entertainment, any special highlights, super loves, best tips, etc.? Very low key entertainment compared to a larger ship. Some small production shows - the singers/dancers on our ship were at the end of their contract and had "gelled". Entertaining. Other nights mostly a singer or magician, etc. One of the featured acts "Five o'clock Somewhere" was really excellent. Show lounge is more like a cabaret, sight lines are impacted but you also aren't in a room packed in the 1000 or more.... As a side note, we are getting ready in later January 2018 to do our first visit to SE Asia. This includes Hong Kong, Vietnam, a seven-day sailing up the Mekong River, Cambodia, Angkor Wat, Bangkok, etc. Any special, added tips and insights for that part of the world? Places to avoid and/or your most favorite experiences there? Love Hong Kong. Ride the Star Ferry a lot. :-) Victoria Peak is a must see. I also love the area around Hollywood Street (antique area), you will learn to ride the massive escalators that take you up and down the hills. Have tea at the Pennisula if it's in the budget. Stanley Market is touristy, but easy to get to via bus (usually a double decker) try and sit right in the front on the second level if you can - wonderful views. Go out to Lantau Island to see the giant Buddha. We took the Ferry and then a bus. Now there is a cable car. At the Monastery have lunch - go for the "VIP" lunch. It's vegetarian but quite good - VIP gets you into a private dining room where you don't share a table and food with others and it's just a few dollars more. If you have time take a ferry to Macau. You will feel like you are in Portugal. Consider getting a foot massage here - it will be very different than a foot massage in Thailand. I'll just leave it at that. Overall using buses and Star Ferry, Hong Kong is easy to manage on foot. Bangkok is a place I could live (except for the heat/humidity) - it's just so alive! Get a foot massage! or lots of them. Super inexpensive and you will be amazed at how you fee afterward. The Royal Palace is a must see of course. I also enjoyed visiting the National Museum of Bangkok (funeral carriages were interesting). Go to a night market. Ride the "taxis" on the Chao Praya river. Eat great food for next to nothing. It's been 10 years since we were there, but I remember our lunch at the National Museum costing us both less than $5 US. I'm sure it's more now... Vietnam - We have been to Saigon and Nha Trang. We overnighted in Saigon on Nautica - first day we did the Meekong - full day and so much to see. Second day we did War Museum and other places in Saigon. Traffic is crazy and crossing the street an experience. Listen to your guide and you will be safe! Haven't been to Cambodia/Angkor Wat. Someday! Hope you see this!

Going back in April for two weeks to finish the last of the three apartments in time for high season. Jeff can't go as he is rebuilding his vacation bank...but that also means I stay on task... :D Next big trip is a toss up at the point.
