Fall 2017 Voyagers celebrate Neptune Day

The MV World Odyssey passed the equator Sunday, October 1st, and that means that voyagers officially graduated from Pollywogs to Shellbacks during Monday’s Neptune Day celebration!

Check out some of the highlights below, and read more about the ancient Neptune Day tradition here.
