Day #13- Sea Day

This morning we awoke to an eerie looking ocean!

It was still windy and the sea was rocking pretty good.  Typhoon Leon has really affected our voyage to Japan.  It might have been downgraded to a Tropical Storm?

We made our way to the Reserve Section of the dining room for breakfast.  I had the strawberry pancakes, muy rico!  It's funny that I actually had a dream about pancakes last night!
