As the MV World Odyssey nears the coast of Japan, 12 days after departing Honolulu, the shipboard community is finishing up midterms and finalizing their plans for Japan. High seas did not stop students from showing their talent at the first lip sync battle in the Kaissersaal and enjoying the outdoor decks on study day. Also, Semester at Sea has award winning faculty on board…Catch up on all the ship’s happenings with this week’s posts before we pull into our first international port!
OH BUOY! Only 4 days until we arrive in Japan!
