Thanks. What is that due soon?

 

I'm hoping to get something before summer.

[How many different resort did you try this season?]

0.

 

 

I wasn't in Japan.

 

But I will be next winter.

Whats the best thing to get for around 100,000 yen now you reckon?

[What Provoked you to start Skiing or Snowboarding?]

I was brought up skiing - from Colorado.

[The OFfiCiAl SNow PhOtOgrAphy ThrEAd!]

That is what I thought.

The interwebtubes are sometimes a ridiculous and dangerous place.

[Bushpig Watch Out!]

Wonder how many hundred thousand sausages it will yield!

[Niseko Probs]

The eggs are already going to other places. The basket is broken.

[Hello! Next season I try Niseko & Hokkaido... my question]

There were plenty ladies/women/girls there when I went this last season.

[Its Snowing]

Are those charges in the form of a toll road or something? How does that work?

[The OFfiCiAl SNow PhOtOgrAphy ThrEAd!]

I'm also in the club of considering a digital SLR.

 

Someone else would at times be using it and as such I have a question. Online just now I read that "digital SLRs do not have automatic focus". Surely that is mistaken? Surely there is manual/automatic setting for focus? Tell me that's the case!

[Big Train Crash]

I live about 2km from where all this happened, but more importantly a good friend of mine was quite seriously injured and lucky to be alive. They don't really care about the people who went to the parties (JR seems to have a lot of enkais and events going on for its emplyees on a weekday midday huh? whats with that) but rightly angry at JR in general.

 

It seems they are saying now the train was going at 126kmh. That must have been pretty scary for people used to the normal speed on that thing.

[So, how much is this season costing?]

Gear 50000

Hotels 40000

Lift tickets probably another 40000

Travel more of the same

 

Too much.

[New x-box (and ps3)]

You'd have thought so, but it doesn't look that way. Anyway its the games that matter of course.

[Resorts that reach out]

I think he/she (?) means reaching out as in appealing to potential customers, not newsletters and stuff.

 

?

[Best city in Japan]

After Tokyo, Osaka then Kobe for me.

The places I have most fun in.

[Favorite movies ?]

Godfather 1 and 2

[Newspapers]

Get neither

[Just arrived...where to go??!!]

Thanks for the help.

[When will you be riding the snow until?]

Probably until the middle of April with maybe one last flirt right at the end.

[Where's your hometown?]

Melbourne, Australia

[Just arrived...where to go??!!]

Just arrived in Japan this last week and desperately want to get out there. Tooooo much choice, where should I go? Anyone? Help!! Wishes : large resort for a lower-intermediate skilled snowboarder, as good as snow as possible, that's all!
