Himeji Castle, Koko-En garden, and lunch on shore before boarding our ship, the National Geographic Resolution.
Today we joined our expedition group, toured sights near Kobe, and boarded our ship – the National Geographic Resolution. Read on!
The start of our next adventure.
We’re embarking today on the National Geographic Resolution, an arctic-class cruise ship identical to the ship (the Endurance) we sailed to South Georgia in March 2023. On this trip, Coastal Japan: Imperial Dynasties and Modern Culture, run by National Geographic on a ship managed by Lindblad Expeditions, Pam and I and my parents will be cruising along the southern coasts of Japan, and make a brief stop in South Korea, exploring many of the natural and cultural highlights of this beautiful region of the world. More to come, and you can be sure I’ll bring back lots of photographs!
