Returning to Sasebo....we walk the streets in the warmth of su mer....and readily find refuge in the coolness of ' the cabaret. As we cross a bridge on our way into the city, we never fail l 7 , to meet a certain indigenous clown, rather unusually dressed .... with an 'eat at Joe's' placard around his neck . .... he hands us a card which brings forth a free drink at some place along the road, somehow or other we never seem to get that far.... most of us head for the beach or poolg those more athletically inclined, climb the diving board, while some can do no more than lie in the sun. A last look at Pusan before we start our trip back home to Tokyo Bay .... then we tie up to our familiar pier....and when liberty begins, we are off in a thousand different directions .... we reminisce in the familiarity of a city we know so well .... and as we hear the strains of a certain song, we decide it's not such a long time from 'May to ....

Underway....the days are rough....waves come over the forward well deck....many of us are feeling the effects of a certain mariners' malady. But the thought of what lies ahead, the mystery and the excitement of our destination....the Polling of the sea
