    The first typhoon of the season is scheduled to arrive at midday. If all goes according to plan, we will sail into its eye somewhere along Shikoku’s southern seaboard. “My question: how are your sea legs?” asks Captain Pierre-Marie Ducournau. A nervous titter washes through Le Soleal’s auditorium, where we’ve gathered for a pre-departure briefing. But Ducournau is just teasing.

All the way from Zimbabwe to Angola, music drifts up from the railway tracks in a steady rhythm. “Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh,” goes the metronome, then “throb” as wheels strike the track’s fishplated joints. Station names flash past the windows like lyrics from a song: “Kafue, Fubero, Kafulafuta,” they sing in tune with the train’s drumbeat. “Kipula, Tshinsenda, Lubumbashi.” At night, I lie in the dar
