Welcome to Japan
On the cruise we had a one day stop in Japan to the city of Nagasaki. We did tour the city, which of course is known as one of the sites of the atomic bombs dropped on Japan to end World War 2.
While it gave us a small feel for the country, there is so much more to see there and we hope to get back there one day to see so much more.
