New Year’s Day

A Happy New Year from the Ocean Dream!!

The first morning events were held on the Ocean Dream as usual, but with a feeling of renewal.
Tai-chi participants look like they are even more into it this morning.

It was phisically and mentally refreshing.

There was a Japanese traditional dance show.

 

 

Also a “Sara Mawashi” plate spinning show.

 

 

 

 Doing Japanese caligraphy describing one’s New Year’s resolution is a popular activity,

 

 

 

The traditional Japanese tea ceremony is also popular.

This is a traditional Japanese New Year’s dish called “Osechi”, which was served to celebrate New Year’s Day, even we are on board.

We had a good time to observing one of Japanese New Year’s Day custom.
