Was up there this week. Love those mountains.

I didn't make it at the end there, but heard there were quite a lot of people around. Strange season of course with everything that happened. Onto summer!

Still a fair bit I think. I will be going this weekend for some relaxation and a reminder of fun times!

Shook up Still bit scared Trying to move on

I was in Yamagata city last night and rudely woken up by that. Rude at the very least.

More than 100 South Korean schools have cancelled or shortened classes over fears that rain falling across the country may show traces of radiation from the Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan. The Education Office of Gyeonggi province said it allowed schools to decide whether to open on Thursday. The prime minister's office said radiation levels in the rain were low and posed no health threat. But officials said that 126 schools in Gyeonggi province near Seoul closed, and 43 others shortened class hours as a precaution.

Good news. I think there was a lot of pressure and politics going on with this - lots of Zao people wanted to get things open again but there was a balance to get with there being lots of people here from affected areas. And the skijo characteristically slow to make decisions etc. Anyway good to hear and I'll definitely get up there.

I'm in Tokyo but can't get through to anyone in Yamagata or Zao. News did say that most electricity out in Yamagata.

Haha, both.

Sorted now, at last. That wasn't fun I tell ya!

As I said in the original post if you read it Quote: Water supply non existant, iced up.

I'm more concerned about the poo that's lingering in there now!

Not feeling too well since yesterday and a bit of the runs, if you know what I mean. Toilet time this morning. Water supply non existant, iced up. Can't flush the toilet. It's not good! Why do these things happen at the worst possible moments!

Good work ILoveZao. I hope to be up there next weekend for the first time this season.
