Another great report thanks muikabochi -
The Australian government has made a formal apology for the past wrongs caused by successive governments on the indigenous Aboriginal population. Prime Minister Kevin Rudd apologised in parliament to all Aborigines for laws and policies that "inflicted profound grief, suffering and loss". He singled out the "Stolen Generations" of thousands of children forcibly removed from their families. The apology, beamed live around the country on TV, was met with cheers. But some Aborigines say it should have been accompanied with compensation for their suffering.

Missing your shinkansen
BillTheBinMan replied to RobBright's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
The few times I have been on a shinkansen it has been with an unreserved ticket, but it had "valid 2 days" written on it. I got a seat each time. -

Seriously I most likely wouldn't have become interested in visiting Japan twice (and soon three times) if it wasn't for this site. Totally invaluable for people like me and I'm no doubt for businesses listed on it as well. No other winter sports country as far as I know has anything as in-depth, independent and generally excellent as this site. I'm always amazed at the relative lack of ads and things on here. We're lucky to have it. -

OK so Hakuba folk, whats the story behind the name "Echoland". It doesn't sound very Japanese in origin. -
