"I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list." - Susan Sontag
Come cruise with us! Spring 2024 we will embark upon a 12-day transpacific adventure beginning in exotic Toyko, Japan and making our way across the open ocean to the wilds of Alaska. In Japan, visit temples, shrines and possibly even enjoy an hanami (picnic) under the cherry trees in bloom. Relish your balcony suite and full service activities and entertainment shipboard as we journey past the International Date Line and on to the beautiful Alaskan Aleut islands followed with a stop in Kodiak, home to grizzly bears and salmon. Finally we disembark in Seward, gateway to the Kenai Fjords National Park, before traveling to Anchorage. This is an all inclusive double-occupancy excursion including all meals, beverages, alcoholic drinks, pre-paid gratuity, wifi and specialty dining. Your price also includes a welcome and farewell gathering, airfare to and from Long Beach, California, and all ground transportation in Tokyo and Anchorage. Pay your deposit now and make payments through December 2023, or pay now in full. Single occupancy is available. Also, other flight cities and fly-early or stay-after options are available for a nominal change fee. Inquiries? Email Dana at dparker@asquaredlamps.org.
