My First Asia Cruise - Celebrity Millennium - 12 Days Japan - Embarkation
After 5 days in Tokyo, we finally board the Celebrity Millennium for 12 days Asia cruise. There are 7 ports of call in total with 6 in Japan and 1 in Busan, South Korea. When we booked, there were only Window or Inside Staterooms available. I normally prefer balcony but I chose window so I can at least see what the outside looks like. The boarding was quick and efficient. The ship looks great for an old ship because it was recently refurbished back in 2019. Stay tuned for more videos of our ports of call and the full ship tour.

My First Time in Japan - 5 Days Journey in Tokyo

I spent 5 days in Tokyo before my 12 days Asia cruise on the Celebrity Millenium. I want to visit as many places as I can and try the local food.

Thanks for the video, I'm going on the same or similar cruise in 3 weeks. I'll be looking forward to your next Japan videos
@@mcsabie1 what are your ports of call?
@@DavidGQTravel Kobe, Kyoto, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, jeju island, kagoshima, mt Fuji
The trip I was on didn't have Nagasaki, Jeju and Kagoshima.
Cool! We are looking into booking the same cruise! Looks nice.
You should! It's a good ship
Great video. Looking forward to the rest of the videos.
Thanks for watching!
Looks nice but how much
@@Wilbgr8 it depends on what you choose. They have different options
@@DavidGQTravel how much was the one you ordered?
@@Wilbgr8 total w tips was $300
Thank you for the video. We’re going on a cruise in Japan in July 2025 on the Millennium. Cant’t to see the rest of your videos. You do fantastic videos.
So far I’m really enjoying the cruise on Millennium. Much better than what I expected
Kura Sushi is the BOMB!!! Soo much FUN! 🍣🍤🍥
I go there every time im in Bmore
Virtually everything there is a replica, which is fine. I have a degree in Egyptology (bachelors in ancient near east studies) - His name is pronounced "toot-anhk-amun" (I never correct anyone). This translates to "the living image of amun". Tut means image or representation and ankh means life, but in the eternal (soul) sense. So his entire name tries to infer that he is the worldly representation of amun on earth - sort of like how we view the Pope. His father named him "toot-anhk-aten" (living image of ATEN) since his father was the first in recorded world history to convert to monotheism (one god). His father closed all of the pagan temples and forced everyone to only worship Aten. That....did not go over well with the "common folk". Revolts surely ensued. His father was murdered and Tut became KING (not Pharoah). He opened all of the temples but allowed people to keep worshipping Aten if they wanted. He changed his name just to appear to be on the side of the people. His tomb at KV62 is interesting. I have been in there. It is a small 3 room tomb that was not meant for him. Quick easy story about this. Tut was a child (perhaps 9) when his father was murdered. Being too young to reign, his maternal grandfather (Ay) became regent. He had no lineage to the throne and was a terrible leader. In order to gain legitimacy through "blood", Ay married his own granddaughter and sired a child. Absolutely disgusting. Once Tut came of age, Ay was "relieved of duty" and sent packing. Tut also married that same sister - apparently, she was quite popular *facepalm. Tut, as I mentioned before, reopened the temples and changed his name (end in Amun as opposed to Aten). Ay wanted to remain King and desired a coup d'état to murder Tut and take back the throne. Although we cannot prove exactly how Tut died, I would bet anything that Ay had him murdered. This is where KV62 comes into play. Tut's actual burial site was still being constructed and would not be completed for decades. Upon his SUDDEN death at a young age (murdered), Tut and "his crap" were tossed into an unfinished tomb meant for a much lesser role, like a governor. This is the main reason KV62 had never been discovered or looted. As for Ay, he retook control of Egypt (congrats on that). A few short years later another rival in Egypt named Horemheb murdered Ay and took the throne. That lasted a few years until Ramses the first (no, not the famous one) murdered Horemheb. Ramses son Seti the first ruled Egypt for a while with his son Ramses II (yes, that famous one). One interesting thing to note here is that Ramses II is the first PHAROAH of Egypt. Before him, everyone referred to themselves as heavenly vassals. Beings on earth anointed by the gods (same as the pope). This is evident throughout Egypt. You can visit any site and various KINGS built shrines to various GODS. Ramses II came along and said no.. I am a god. I am the same as them. That was absolute blasphemy in ancient Egypt. Abu Simbel is direct evidence of his arrogance. That is also WHY he built at Abu Simbel, far far away from Abydos, Edfu, or Karnak - he knew he was spitting in the face of the GODS and the people. To further drive this point home - the Kings List in Abydos shows the names of all KINGS in Egyptian history and it just happens to STOP at Seti I... Ramses II's father. Everyone after Ramses copied his style and proclaimed themselves as a living god. That is enough rambling. I could sit here and write a 50 page essay about the 18th dynasty alone lol
I actually enjoy your knowledge in this. I have always fascinated with Egypt culture and history. Definitely on my bucket list to visit. Maybe next year since this summer will visit Japan for one month.
Those are recreations right?
yes
@@DavidGQTravel Rather impressive recreations... Lots of gold leaf used there.....
@@andrewandres148 I was at awe. Thinking about how long did it take them to unload and set up all the pieces.
Thanks for sharing!😊
Wooow looks so good. I shouldnt watch on an empty stomach
Thanks so much for sharing this! I won't be able to go see it in person and I enjoyed getting the experience by watching your video.
were the crab legs served at lunch or dinner at Surfside?
Yes
Is this the cruise to Iceland and northern Europe?
Norway and Northern Europe
3rd. Well David, I've been to the ARTECHOUSE twice each where I saw these shows each: 1. ARTECHOUSE's Spectacular Factory (ua-cam.com/video/r4MB8cuOaUQ/v-deo.html) 2. ARTECHOUSE's ISEKAI: BLOOMING PARALLEL WORLDS (ua-cam.com/video/2DS8K0aStpk/v-deo.html) If you like to witness these two shows, you could film it in 60FPS where your fans would love to witness them.
Yes, love ARTECHOUSE. Planning to go there soon
Please do@@DavidGQTravel and good luck.
Killen's Brisket, craft BBQ. The rub is heavy on black pepper but that bark/caramelized fat is so rich. Ron KIllen is all about quality in everything he makes. That does not mean that everyone likes everything he puts on the table but it will be quality. His Chicken fried steak and cream gravy is so good and the gravy is a cream gravy. Lots of comparable BBQ Brisket around Texas. Rubs are different and taste great as well. No need to compare one against the other. Just enjoy the better than average BBQ where you find it.
Beside Killen, what is your other favorite BBQ in TX? I visit Houston often
Very good overview of the specialty dining experience.
Yummy! i love kbbq and hotpot
Thank you, really enjoyed that.....👍🇬🇧
🙏😎😋
very nice place.... your video is very nice but one thing is mistakes in your channel.
🙂 "Promosm"
I wish someday I'LL be there as a guest not as a crew
Wow, it looks very relaxing..beautiful music! 😊
How does it work if you wear glasses? Does your glasses get wet before you start?
I wouldnt wear glasses because you have to dip your head into the water to get in. You could have one of the tour people hold the glasses for you and give to you when you get in.
How much is cost ???
I love this place! I ate there, the best Korean BBQ hands down out here!
Wow that food looks so good! Worst time to watch this video. Im on a diet right now :')
Can you guess how many lobsters I ate at the Palms?
Four? I don't know, I see you eat all that food and all I can think to myself is "I would get sick".
@@SmallTownTrekker I always have craving for seafood. I guess because living here we have blue crabs during summer so I always looking forward to seafood and such, especially when I travel
Is everything shown here only for Haven guests & specialty restaurants?
No some are in the surfside also. The crablegs are from there
@@DavidGQTravel Wow, all you can eat crab legs from Surfside besides the buffet?
@@user-lg7es5gr3w yes actually during our cruise they offer snow crabs on day 3 and king crabs on day 6.
@@DavidGQTravel That's fabulous information. So I should go to Surfside when on get on the ship & ask Surfside which days they are offering snow crab & king crab, then?
@@user-lg7es5gr3wyes you should ask since they know what will be served during the cruise
Is it the mini island tour or the nature and wildlife drive excursion?
It’s the wildlife tour
What is your review on the fish/seafood restaurant?
I don’t think it’s worth the price
At 46:35 when walking past the Starbucks you pass Brian and Kerry of "Views and Queues". They are on a some of the same cruises as you and I always look for you in their videos and them in yours and finally it happened. Brian is in a black shirt brown shorts and Kerry green pants. They are great and funny too.
I will check them out. I haven't heard of them.
@@DavidGQTravel Views and Queues just put out a new vid today. They filmed at Starbucks just minutes after you walked past and then walked away. So on your return through that area just minutes later they had already left. Small world, yet so big. Well, if 1200 ft long by 213 ft or so wide and 20 decks is small.
Looks best out of these hot pot and Korean BBQ combo buffets. Hot pot and KBBQ do not go together but Kpot looks clean and well run.
Man! Looks awesome wish I could be there!
Have fun. I wish was there
Thank you. She’s a beautiful ship
Needs commentary
Как всегда, отличная работа
Great tour...appreciated the extensive views of the World Stage Theatre...well done!
Thank you
Man I wish I could’ve been there. Looks like fun!
Did you book the excursion through the cruise ship? I am trying to find information about how to ferry across to Mexico from the ship. Is that easy to manage if we don't book something through the ship?
I don't always book through the ships. I book outside vendors often.. The thing is if you book outside vendors, you need to be back at the port before the ships leave. They won't wait for you . I used Aviator and ShoreExcursions.com. Both are reliable.
We booked for new years 2024. Looking forward to it! Not a fan of those rooms with up and down window instead of a real balcony you walk out on. So we booked a “a sunset veranda”. Back of the ship real balcony.
They do have rooms with real balcony. I remember seeing them on some levels port side.
@@DavidGQTravel sky suites
Great Video!!
Thank you
Ship looks like so much fun!
You are still an inspiration for generations to come. Such a scary looking dive with those sharks
Terrible video! Too herky, Jerky. Couldn't watch it.👎
Nice video ! We are planning to this cruise ship next year and it's going to be our first time. Did you have to reserve a table at Hudson dining and buffet? Thanks for the video .
No reservation is needed. You just pick which restaurant to eat and show up at anytime before they close. I really like that way. You will enjoy the cruise for sure
@@DavidGQTravel that's wonderful. Thanks for your information.
Thanks for sharing! Can you eat 3 full meals every day and not get tired of the food or feel stuffed?
Yes because the food is not the same each day. For me personally, I use stairways mostly during the cruise. I only eat breakfast on port days. So I normally eat lunch and dinner only
@@DavidGQTravel Ok. Thanks. Your videos are very informative.
Lol your sons magic tricks 😂. Hope you guys had fun! The seafood looks awesome
That was one of the best magic tricks I've ever seen! I can't believe he performed on the cruise director! Great video once again!
The best entertainment I see on the ship is your son doing the card tricks😮🙌
