Another day on the "Yangtze River" and couped up on "Yangtze 1" has me getting the coming down with “cabin fever”.
My saviour is my e-reader, laptop and a 2TB portable hard drive full of movies and TV shows. If anything, the past couple of days had reiterated to me that cruise ships are simply not my thing, at this stage in my life.

Day 16 - Yangtze River
Float to your next destination in traditional style. Enjoy the views from the deck and embark on riverside excursions up stunning tributaries and to historic sites.
Spend two days on board a basic boat traversing through the Three Gorges en route to Yichang. Along the way take the opportunity to visit some of the many attractions and towns.
There is the opportunity to leave the boat to take an early morning trip down a tributary of the Yangtze River.
The cabins are clean, twin-share with private toilet and shower facilities, but not luxurious. There is basic Chinese food available in the restaurant on board.
