Konnichiwa from Japan, the final foreign country on the Spring 2012 itinerary. Students set out to soak in as much of Japan as possible, taking the transportation of tomorrow to the temples of the past, singing karaoke in Kobe, learning the geology of Mt. Fuji, catching a baseball game in Yokohama, attending traditional tea ceremonies, and soaking in the beauty of cherry blossom season. The MV Explorer has since sailed east from the Land of the Rising Sun, but these student photos take a look back at the culture and colors of Japan.
