Live from the Millennium sailing from Singapore Nov. 13

We are sailing from Singapore on 14 night sailing. Thought I would try a live since we have the internet package.

We have been away from home for over 2 weeks with 5 nights in Singapore, 4 nights in Phuket, 2 more nights in Singapore, 4 nights on RC Mariner of the Seas, and 2 nights again in Singapore before we boarded Millennium today.

Stay tuned for lots of Adventure on our trip.

What no Tiger Beer?;p

Looking forward to updates.

Please let us know how the ship is - we are due to sail on her next March.

Have a great cruise

You have already had a wonderful adventure with more to come.

Will be following your thread.

Enjoy.

We board Millennium December 24th. Looking forward to your updates. :)

Thanks for posting and hope to see more. We are sailing the Millennium from Hong Kong to Singapore on January 7-21.

Tell us all about it. The shape of the ship, the food, etc.

How did you like Singapore? We are staying one night after our cruise and hope to cover the highlights in 2 days.

We love your sailing philosophy, as outlined in your signature, Debbie. We're starting to feel the same way! :D

We're booked on a Millennium SE Asia cruise in November 2018, with a slightly different itinerary, but stopping at some of the same ports you are about to visit. So, we're anxiously looking forward to following your adventure, with hopefully lots of photos. I see you've mastered the challenge of posting photos very nicely. Have a wonderful trip!

Following too, we are on Millie out of Singapore on 18th Feb, very excited for this trip so looking forward to reading lots of info here, both about the ship and about the ports

We have spent more time on Millie than any other Celebrity ship (91 days) and enjoyed them all. On our last cruise on her, we had the absolute best room steward we have ever had. We also had amazing service in Blu.

Dinner last night in the MDR was good, service a little slow. We had the prime rib, very good. I had Thai chilled coconut soup, too spicy for me and a salad. DH had shrimp cocktail and escargot. I forgot to take pictures. Mint is the sommelier and seems very knowledgeable on her wines.

Didn't go to the show. Went to the casino. DH likes to play the slots. They have a special for slot play. He paid $500. & Got $575. on his card. He played through $175, and got $164. Not too bad, let him play. He will download $5-$10 in a machine, and cash out his winnings. He's not a big spender.

We are traveling with another couple. Their son is currently living in Singapore for 3 yrs for work. While in Singapore, we have been staying with them. When they got their luggage yesterday, everything was wet. When we boarded, it was raining and their luggage must have been on top. We had experienced this in Australia, so I suggested she ho to guest services and complain. Celebrity stepped up and is washing their clothes, free of charge

Millie seems to be in great condition. Carpeting looks new. We are in a 2C cabin, deck 6, a slant.

Relaxing by the pool at our favorite spot on Millie.

Keep the news coming! This is great!

Pre dinner drinks at the Martini bar with friends.

Dinner in the MDR was very slow tonight, 2 hours. 🤔

I had French onion soup with the BBQ Cobra, and DH had the frig legs, French onion soup and shrimp scampi.

Show tonight is the singers and dancers, which we decided to not go to, and visit the casino instead.

Early morning tomorrow, we dock at Ho Chi Min, Vietnam at 7am, and gave a full day private tour.

Afternoons are very quiet on the ship. People are eating dinner later. Not many people playing in the casino.

Looking forward to your review. Brings back memories of sailing Singapore to Hong Kong on Millenium. Thanks for spending your precious holiday time

Enjoy reading your postings. I will be on the Millennium in March. Curious about your excursions. Does the ship sell visas on board for Vietnam? Since the cruise is based in Asia, are the menus the same as on most X ships? Or do they offer Asian type food like dim sum for breakfast?

Thanks Debbie. Will be following. We are on Millie in March.

Looking forward to reading more about your cruise adventure.

Early morning tomorrow, we dock at Ho Chi Min, Vietnam at 7am, and gave a full day private tour.

So, you will be docking at Phu My?

Thank you so much for doing this live thread! We will be on the Millie December 10th and have quite an active roll call. I'm going to let the group know about your live thread so do anticipate many coming here to visit! :-)

After your cruise, I will be very interested to hear your recommendations for packaging clothes for this cruise and any must see/do not miss info from Singapore and Hong Kong! And, of course, your daily info!

We will be sailing on her (first time ever with Celebrity) on the December 10-24 cruise from Singapore to Hong Kong, via Bangkok, Saigon, Hue/HoiAn/Danang, HaLong Bay and then Hong Kong. Can't wait to hear more of your travels. Sent a friend request even!! :)

Thanks so much for your posts! We board the Millenium in Singapore on Dec 10th. Interested in hearing if there are tour operators in Laem Chabang offering tours to Pattaya. Also in Halong Bay, are there land based tours? Lynda

As Classy mentioned, our roll call for the cruise on Millie out of Singapore on 10 December is very active. Just a little over 3 weeks to go, so I am looking forward to your updates. Thanks for sharing your adventures and letting us tag along for the ride.

Hi Debbie.....I'm sure you already know but I did post a link for this thread to our Silhouette sailing...hopefully some are following. Looking forward to hearing all about this trip as well as your other travels when we see you in 73 days!!

Today our port stop was Phu My. We arranged for a private excursion with Xuan:. http://www.tourwithxuan.com. Our day was fabulous! Xuan met us just outside the port gate, we were almost 15 minutes early too.

The drive into the city took almost 1.5 hours. First we went to the local market

We then walked around the back streets.

From the back streets, we took a rickshaw ride (no pictures from our phones, he said it wasn't safe) but he took many pictures and will send us the link

We then went to a temple, and made a wish ad the locals do

This is us lighting up for our wish

We then went to the outskirts of town and stopped at a coffee shop and got smoothies

Next stop was the war museum. Very interesting.

After the museum, we stopped at the post office.
