Totemo Sagoi! (Very Fantastic)

We were treated to a full day's worth of snow fall. And not just the dandruff stuff, but the mega 6-fold dihedral symmetrical snowflakes. The generous conditions allowed us to engage in some riding through the trees. However, getting stuck in the thick snow (between trees) is NOT FUN.



In fact, it snowed so much that giant snowballs were starting to wreak havoc:



There has been a two-fold increase in the level of pain/soreness ... Wayne's crash in my kneecap did not help. Right knee is currently sporting a hard boiled egg. So tonight, I am relaxing in bed with not Asahi, but some cheap-ass Japanese "original brew" beer. Taste like VB ... guess all cheap beer taste the same huh?

Request for more snowboarding pictures has been acknowledged:




We started the day with Pension-provided brekkie (oh so healthy); and ended the day with sushi train.




The sushi train joint had vending machines jammed packed with Japanese goodies, including Anpanman and friends. We spent around 7 Aust dollars trying to score THE ANPANMAN ... but alas, all that spat out of the machine were his dodgy friends.



Think we might be going to the zoo tomorrow. Time for bed ...

  1. *green with envy* All that snow! All that jap food! All that kitsch! I can only pass on YDG's advice - strap up your knee with light pressure bandage whilst you sleep to reduce swelling of boiled egg sized lump. It works.

    Did you manage to find beanie?
