Back to the Pacific Ocean

On July 22, the Oshoro-Maru passed through the Aleutian Islands and returned to the Pacific Ocean for the first time in about a month. As the ship passed through the Aleutian Islands, many marine mammals and seabirds could be seen. Also, since we crossed the date line, the day after July 22, which is the ship's time, will be July 24.
