Scam Alert:
I'm not sure where to post this but wanted to let you know what just happened on my Chase Freedom Card. Someone signed into the Chase Pay app on a mobile phone and bought eGift Cards with my Chase Rewards points. Luckily, I had signed up to be notified when there was any activity on my card so I got an email confirming the transactions. Chase has now reversed the transactions & issued me a new Freedom card but this is really something for all travelers to watch! Keep an eye on your accounts and set up alerts wherever you can.

So sorry Sue... but very good advice, especially with the Holidays approaching.

Test.

Have I fallen off the edge of the world or is everyone on holidays? There has been no activity on the board for a few days - is it me? Lee

I was wondering the same thing Lee! But I assume we aren't getting any sea mail because the Samurai group is still in China. I understand there can be problems accessing the internet.

Sorry I have been so busy since I arrived in China. Had a great time in Shanghai. Bought lots is stuff. Prime 7 first night and KLT party last night. We have 76 people in the group and about 12 couples I have not met before. Ken took a few pictures yesterday but is working in getting my computer working. Can’t get my email.

So thank you Jim for posting those pictures. Been so lucky with our weather beautiful night as we left port.

Having a lamb lunch with Jim’ and Pat today so really looking forward to that.

I hope y'all didn't think I was complaining - just missed my LCT 'fix'. The lamb lunch sounds nice Ngaire!

Ngaire. sounds like you're off to a great start...I know how much you love to shop in China too !!

Sorry no posts.

Not a moment to spare on this trip but I promise it will get better. With the 78 of us we are doing KLT buses where possible. Organizing this has been a challenge and of course everyone keeps changing excursions and the destination desk cannot run a list of KLT people on the excursions. However, we have figured out how to do it so the all the KLT guests on an excursion will be on the same bus and hopefully sometimes having it exclusively, The destination desk here has been just terrific,

Today we are in Tianjin. Most are going to the Great Wall but we opted for the shorter Tianjin Highlights. We have been to the wall multiple times.

Weather has been REALLY good. Some rough seas yesterday afternoon but the sun has been shining most of the trip. Along with the people we know and love there are some wonderful new people on this trip. I hope to be able to spend some time with everyone during the cruise. Only three sea days and the sea days are wonderful to be able to relax and visit with everyone.

I promise to get some pictures up soon.
