After last night's passage through the locks . . .

. . . we awake moving full-steam downstream.
There is much more activity on the shore and a great variety of water craft.
. . . . .

We move to the top deck where we spend much of the day
admiring the passing panorama.
. . . .

. . . . .

Our last chance to explore the ship and prepare for tomorrow's disembarking at Jingzhou.
. .

The Captain's Farewell Dinner
The waiters file in to serve our final meal in the ship's dining hall.
. .

A chance to toast and say our goodbyes to our tablemates
. . . . . . . .

Following the meal we moved to the showhall
where we were entertained by fellow-cruisemates in a talent show.
. . . .

The next morning we disembarked at Jingzhou,
a city located on the banks of the Yangtze River with 6000 years history
where the culture of "Chu" was raised and developed.

We took a city tour of Jingzhou and then transferred to our hotel in Wuhan.
We were looking forward to our high-speed bullet train ride to Hangzhou.
