Hey cruisers we recently revealed to you all that we are going on Diamond
Princess to celebrate our 20-year wedding anniversary and we are so
excited to be going on this ship not only was it my husband and i's first
cruise but it was one of our favorite ships of all time there are so many
things that we love about the ship so today we're going to talk a little bit
about the history and the dimensions of the vessel and what we're so excited for
about this particular cruise today's episode is sponsored by CruiseLine.com
where you can find reviews tips and photos from real everyday cruisers
alright so there are so many things that appeal to us about the ship I had to
make some notes today so I am going to be occasionally kind of glancing down at
them please forgive me but I wanted to make sure that I stayed on point and a
little bit organized today and didn't miss anything that I wanted to share
with you about our cruise on Diamond Princess so a little history the Diamond
Princess was built in 2004 and I think that my husband and I actually sailed on
the ship 2004 or 2005 right after it entered service which is really crazy I
can't believe it's been that long been about 14 years as of the time that we're
filming this it is a grand class ship also called a
gem a class ship in this particular case and it is the sister ship to the
sapphire princess which is nearly identical right now it's visiting Asia
and Australia primarily Asia but the ship has a history that goes way beyond
its time in Asia in fact it started off here on the Mexican Riviera in Alaska
many many years ago so it's really interesting for us to be experiencing
this in a different part of the world the ship holds just over 2,600
passengers and has 17 decks now here's where it gets fun there are some really
really unique spots on this ship and there's some awesome specialty dining
and we're super excited to share some of these different things that are
available on the diamond princess first let's talk a little bit about specialty
dining there are five specialty dining experiences not necessarily restaurants
on the ship the first is Sabatini's the Italian
restaurant we all know and love from Princess then we have the good old
Sterling Steakhouse which is great and then like many of the princess ships you
have the ultimate balcony dining which is off
for brunch and I believe dinner for an extra charge that's something that we
did in our young years and you never know maybe for our anniversary
we'll have to recreate our first ultimate balcony dinner I think that
would be so fun here's one of the great ones they have a
sushi restaurant on board called Kai sushi I'm trying to find a little bit of
information about this restaurant and the last menu that I can find is from
2014 so if you know anything more about the menu for Kai sushi please leave it
in the comments below we'd really love to to find out what you know about this
restaurant but from what I can tell it looks to be an ala carte specialty
restaurant now the last or fifth specialty experience on the ship is a
chef's table experience probably not something we'll do this time because our
sons a little too probably a little too young to enjoy that experience but it'll
be coming in the next few years most likely maybe when he turns 16 or 18 or
something like that so those are some of the specialty dining options now what
makes this ship unique okay the thing I am most excited about and if
you've researched this ship you probably know what I'm going to say is the Azumi
Japanese bath you guys this is so cool they have taken the sort of aft I want
to say spa area but it's not really next to the spa per se they've taken one of
the aft areas it's kind of high up on the ship and they have modeled it after
a traditional Japanese onsen or a Japanese bath and it has indoor and
outdoor bathing experiences which is just so cool they're steam rooms they're
saunas and hot tubs one of which has a killer view of the aft facing wake it is
so spectacular and when I daydream about this cruise I picture myself sitting in
that beautiful outdoor bath looking out at that aft wake and just letting all of
my cares melt away it just looks so spectacular I can't wait this is by the
way the largest Japanese bath of its kind at sea and offers an experience it
says a chance to experience a little bit of popular jep a little bit of a popular
Japanese pastime sorry there's a lot of peas in that sense inside a hard time
getting it out anyway this is the interesting thing men and women on the
inside area have separate facilities except
for one outdoor area which is like a hot tub wear bathing suits are required so
yes you just heard me correctly I said wear bathing suits are required so my
understanding is that traditionally in a Japanese onsen you go nude I believe
that the way that they do this on Diamond princess is they have certain
hours of the day when you can go nude and certain days when you can go in your
swimsuit if you've been on time in Princess and you've experienced this I
want to hear all about it share it in the comments below please please please
I'm so interested and how this works and how cruisers will feel about this I mean
I'm sure that there are going to be cruisers from all over the world who
have different ideas of modesty and all that good stuff but you gotta let me
know if you've done this before so we already talked about the Japanese
bath definitely my number one most curious element of the ship obviously
there's Chi sushi which also sounds great to me
but more than anything else you guys this itinerary is just gonna be so
amazing we are doing kind of a one-way itinerary sailing from Tokyo to
Singapore so we're going north to south covering nearly 3,000 miles in 12 days
this will be the longest cruise that we've ever been on our longest has been
ten days in the past and my goodness sakes we are so excited to visit all of
these new countries along the way we're going to be visiting several areas of
Japan we're also going to be going to Hong Kong
Taipei and Vietnam and we're going to be concluding in Singapore unfortunately we
do have to fly home from Singapore the same day that we get off the ship but
we've arranged for a little tour and hopefully everything will go smoothly
and we'll be able to do that another thing that we're really excited about
and this is just something that we haven't done in so long is that we are
cruising in a mini suite on this particular sailing you guys we got the
most incredible deal on a mini suite so we went ahead and splurged this is
probably my favorite cabin category across all of the cruises I've ever been
on and here's why there are three elements that make mini Suites really
special number one they have a bathtub I'm a bather let's just get that right
out there I love taking showers but I also really love a bath and I miss
taking Babs when I'm on a cruise so I'm really excited to have that extra
element of relaxation after what I'm sure are going to be some extremely long
days in Port you know putting on a whole lot of steps on the old Apple watch
right so really looking forward to that relaxation I also love the extra sitting
area that mini suites offer so you have the little section with the bed and then
it has its own television and sort of countertop and then there's another
section with a couch and another TV on the other side so you really feel like
you have a lot of space space excuse me to relax and breathe over the course of
your cruise and lastly of course it's those balconies on the mini Suites
they're great all of the princess balconies on the ship are awesome but we
really do enjoy the extra space I do believe that we're on the dolphin deck
and we're probably going to have a completely exposed balcony I think that
Dolphin is all the way exposed but we're fine with that we don't mind at all I'm
sure we'll get some we'll get some hot days and some rainy days but that is
that's a little bit about why we're excited for the cabin there's so much
more that we can talk about with this cruise so you're gonna be hearing more
from us on the topic there's just so many different things to plan for that
we're not accustomed to we'll be needing a visa in one of the countries we're
going to have to pack for two totally different weather systems because we're
starting in basically winter weather in Tokyo and ending down by the equator in
Singapore so you know us we like to pack carry-on only so it's gonna be really
interesting packing for almost like in Alaska and a Caribbean cruise all in one
so that's a little summary of our upcoming experience on Diamond Princess
we're so excited for this new adventure and we cannot wait to take you along
