So, of all the countries this voyage ports at, Japan is the one that I’m most familiar. Given I spent some time learning the language, living in Tokyo, and returning here many times, I was pretty psyched for the boys and … Continue reading their eyes, by scott
We left Kobe a few days ago, it felt our visit was too short. On the first day, we went to Kyoto as a family. Our first stop was the Golden Pavilion in Kyoto. When we got there it … Continue reading Japan-by Tate
I like to get up early on the ship (just 45 minutes after Scott….which is outrageously early) for some unknown reason. It could be because we continue to move our clocks back hour after hour??? Or, I just like … Continue reading Little White Bags- By Christy
Travel log: We have traveled 5378 nautical miles since San Diego Lincoln- “Mommo, I really think I might be starting to like Tate.” Umm…..wow. “We like Tate as well,” we whispered close to his browned face…..we know to approach…quietly. We … Continue reading Still at Sea. Japan bound!- By Christy
We have been on this journey for 14 days days. We are voyagers. For the record, saying we are on a cruise are fighting words. We are survivors upon a moving city. We are living in a science fiction movie. … Continue reading A strange world, by Christy
While we are on this voyage, I have decided to get a treasure from every place I go. When we were in Mexico, I found a basket that will keep my stuff in one place. In the picture below is my first ever special treasure. A ball. This was found in San Diego at an arcade where I played games. The 2nd treasure is right below this text. A red skull. Found in Ensenada Mexico. It is used to celebrate the day of the dead. Now right below this text is my 3rd treasure so far. Rocks and … Continue reading My special treasures, by Lincoln
12 straight days on the ship. From Honolulu to Kobe. Open sea the whole way. Remember when you read somewhere or someone said offhandedly that the Pacific is the largest ocean and makes up xx% of the water on Earth. There never was any reason to doubt such claims. And, now I affirm that this is one darn big body of water! We left Honolulu knowing we’re going to be on the ship for a long run. In fact, for the entire voyage, this is the longest run of days on the ship without stopping at a port, traveling over … Continue reading Who’s aboard? by Scott

Yesterday we went got onto the World Odyssey, where we will be living in a 500 sq cabin for the next few months. The ship is spectacular, there are nine decks and two halls of cabins on each deck, except for nine. On this voyage I will visit a total of ten countries across three continents. (Not including North America.) When I return I will have visited every continent exept for Antartica. At a meeting two days a go I met a kid named Blake. He is one year older than me, he loves soccer and is from Washington. The … Continue reading On the ship by Tate
Well, since the other three have their first posts up on the blog, I figured I’d best get something up as well. Given what you’ve read so far you can probably imagine that I am figuring out how to pack construction tools – a drill, table saw, hammer and nails. It seems like there will be some major remodeling underway in our cabin during the first few days. Shouldn’t be a problem installing a wall and second bathroom – right? And I’ll just have to pack light in terms of clothing…or just re-wear what I leave the house in on Sunday? Sacrifices … Continue reading Preparing, by Scott
