I don't know if this is a new program, or one that's on every week, but it was on last night. Lots of practical jokes, Japanese style, courtesy of the London Hearts dudes. Lots of laughs. Japan sure is good at this kind of thing.

I suppose also it will depend on how long you plan in the other places. If you had 2 weeks, for example, personally I'd split it something like this 4 days Nozawa 4 days Shiga Kogen 4 days Myoko If I reduced one of those, it would be the Nozawa bit.

Beat me to it!

Nozawa

They obviously knew it was one of the main Yuzawa attractions.

But they have been known to.

It's a good one that. But try 'arguing' it, it can go on and on and on........

They're something CHO OMOSHIROI to talk about, especially with gaijin san.

Reminds me of those funny '...are shit' ones.....

Silly you!

I've had my tea already, I'm all set.

How far is it from where you are NECK, 40 minutes or so using the expressway?

I got the same feeling of "scaling back" as well when I went this season. The McDs and Virgin place have been gone a while now I think.

I believe they pay taxes and what not to both prefectures.

Mitsumata here too. Though simply because more people go to Mitsumata, some times Tashiro is the better choice.

Going back to that "Areas" idea... what a good one. Can/will you potentially add more?

Totally borderline stuff but definitely officially in Iiyama (in the case of Madarao).

Imagine having that control missiles though!

I was going to post that. So a clean cut of the bottom areas, I though previously they did a more gradual cutback...

They are very good at keeping things open right up until they can up top.

2 things for sure: 1) They are sorry 2) They are gambatte-iru

She didn't get her kit off! But obviously the character did sometime.... pregnant at the end?! What was that all about?

Cool. Actually, snowing here too. Hardly full on winter though. Will the lifts actually open up there today then?

Congrats to the new Pope dude!

Now we can close our eyes and imagine that we are in Niseko! etc
