Itinerary: Orient
It was the best holiday we have ever had.You could not fault the service,the food or the entertainment and the intimacy of the Gemini was
something we really appreciated as we were able to get to know people.
Every public area was small and uncrowded.I really enjoyed the pool area.
The Ocean palace served 5 star food and the service was superb. The buffet was great if you were in a hurry to go somewhere and the choice
was amazing.You could eat outside or in from the buffet.
The cabin was a great size with plenty of wardrobe space and the
bed was very spacious and comfortable.The cabin was not noisy and one person
could easily fit in the shower even if it did mean the water did spill out
of the shower.
We attended all the shows and the standard of the shows was
very good.The dancers were great but the singing a little flat.The best show
of the cruise was done by the staff on the Friday night.It was great to see
the talented crew in a different light.The entertainment manager on board
the Gemini was superb and was a show all by himself.
It was hard to leave the ship to visit,Kuala Lumpur,Penang,Phi
Phi island and Phuket and Malacca but we were glad we did because they were
all such completely different contrasts.We tok mostly tours because of the
short shore time available and this way we were able to see more.The pool
was lovely and I only had time to visit the well equipped gym once!We did
not check out the childcare facilities.
Many of the people on board were just middle class people like us
and as there is no class distinction on the Gemini as far as eating places
goes and the fact that there were only a small number of passengers you were
able to get to know people.
