Let it snow

It snowed a metre in Myoko Kogen today, while we we snoozing on the snow shuttle bus after an overnight flight into Tokyo. It is a public holiday today, celebrating 20 year olds as that is the age of majority here. We have a cosy traditional Japanese room, and Enjoyed pre-dinner drinks in it tonight, in keeping with Japanese tradition. The Japanese kindly cater to people who may be looking for maximum alcohol content in a can, with large print - no glasses needed.  Strange we all feel wrecked, and we haven't even hit the slopes yet!
