Xiamen in China

This week Diamond Princess is on a 15-day cruise around Asia from Japan to China and Southeast Asia.

And today 10/19 we arrived in mainland China.

I first visited China in 2015 when I was aboard Sapphire Princess, and now today I’m back and I can’t hide the surprise every time that China is making such great progress.

The cityscape view from the port, as you can see there is so much construction happening. Even though it has been a long time since democracy began, noise of the construction sites and the massive growth of city China’s momentum is still going strong.

I can’t help but feel that the Chinese economy and future is exciting. 🙂
