The first line of John Steinbeck`s book, Travels with Charley, recently shared with me by Professor James McNally, resonates even at 71 In Japan’s longevity hotspots, I’ve seen this same curiosity—this quiet restlessness—alive and well. And I’ve come to believe it’s part of what keeps people living not just longer… but better. I’m Lowell Sheppard—author, sailor, and creator of Japan Solo. After 7 years sailing the Pacific Solo journey, I’m now exploring a new chapter across Japan—focusing on longevity, curiosity, and what it means to live well as we age. Sharing stories from the sea, the road, and the remarkable people I meet along the way. Join me as I explore a simple idea: it’s never too late. www.nevertoolateacademy.com #JohnSteinbeck #Curiosity #Longevity #JapanLife #HealthyAging #NeverTooLate #LifeAt71 #JapanSolo #LifeLessons #StayCurious #aging

This shot was not planned as the UPS239, departed from Louisville, arrived in Cologne (EDDK) during the solar eclipse. We used a DWARF 3 camera to track and film the solar eclipse as we realized, a 747-8F was approaching cologne airport. We did not expect the aircraft to "fly" exactly in front of the sun... but as you can see, it did.
