Scott LadewigCaptain just announced that a weather system was developing that will give us the worst weather of the cruise from later tonight through to our arrival at Yokohama the day after tomorrow. 🫤 Uh oh... #cruise #japan #DiamondPrincess
Good morning from Aomori, our final port stop. Coldest day of the cruise, which isn't surprising as we're at the northern most end of Honshu.
Hard to believe that after this it's one sea day and then back to Yokohama. #cruise #japan #DiamondPrincess
Diamond Princess is really rocking and rolling tonight. As the day went on, the wind and seas really picked up. Have had a terrible headache thanks to the pressure change with this weather. Ugh. #cruise #japan #DiamondPrincess
Somewhere over there is Akita. Our port call was cancelled due to weather conditions there today. High winds later meant that while getting in would probably be OK, getting out wouldn't be.
So today we're taking a wide route to Aomori, our final port stop tomorrow. #cruise #japan #DiamondPrincess
Just as we were preparing to leave Sakata, the Captain made an announcement that due to weather conditions tomorrow, we won't call at Akita tomorrow and will instead have a day at sea. 😕 #cruise #japan #DiamondPrincess
Good morning from Sakata! We've headed up the coast quite a fair bit from our last port of Kanazawa. Cherry blossom forecast said today would be first blossoms here, so we'll see.
Not much to see this morning from where we are on the ship. #cruise #japan #DiamondPrincess
Good morning from Sakaiminato!#cruise #japan #DiamondPrincess
