The Mikasa


Liam is in love with the Mikasa Battleship!It is docked in Yokosuka. He gave me the grand tour and pointed out that it is part of the great triumvirate of naval war vessels: The HMS Victory, The Constitution and The Mikasa. He's visited two...one left to see

This ship wiped out the Russian Baltic Fleet during the Russo/Japanese War. It signaled the beginning of Imperialist Japan...See, I learned something from a 5 year old.

Oh, Liam is the tiny orange dot in front of the ship.
