"A bit wary" sums up how I feel. Though I am at the best of times. I really do not like flying wear a mask anyway.

Canada was my first skiing.

Japan was my first snowboarding.

Just what other people have said but I highly recommend visiting this place if you are nearby. Unless you hate monkeys perhaps.

Wow that was super fast!

 

Thanks, good to hear. I like the ride up there and also the crater between the two.

Hi there

Was wondering, is it open yet? I know it closes in winter due to the snow.

Thanks
