こんばんは。How’s it going?

I started the day with a quick jog around Xi’an before returning to the hotel and getting ready for the next leg of our trip: the city of Chongquin and boarding the river cruise ship.

The flight above Chongquin was absolutely stunning – I have never seen a more impressive city from the air. It honestly looked like a creation from SimCity! There were winding rivers, modern bridges, skyscrapers galore, and other details such as highway clovers and sporting stadiums. It was surreal!

Anyways, after we landed, we took a short bus ride to the cruise ship where we would be spending the next several days, traveling down the Yangtze river.

The check-in process was quick and we were soon settled into our cabin and the drinks started flowing. 🥂

As the sun went down, the city of Chongquin started to light up and a festive feeling came over the entire ship. It really felt like a new phase of vacation was beginning!

Dinner was delicious, but everyone was tired from a long travel day, so it will be an early rest for us. 😴 Please enjoy these pictures from the day:
