Does the idea of people being able to use keitais on a plane make you feel "goody-goody, I can text my mate 'hey I'm on a plane'" or does it make you red with rage?
I say - please, NO!!

I was at Nozawa today. Bit annoyed with the weather people - all the reports had us down for a fine day but it was a bit gloomy with lots of low cloud, especially in the afternoon. Nice to get up there though and conditions up top were really nice. Bit icy down below.
I uploaded some fairly uninteresting pics and a very uninteresting video.
I'll do better next time.

Why do they still use them? Do they teach it at school?

PS SJ I really love the way that the uploaded photos now come out much clearer as you upload them this year on that new system.
Going to be a great season.

Nozawa opened on the weekend. Just a few top runs (no snow at the bottom now) but I had a great time. Was very spring like... but the good thing we have the season IN FRONT OF US!.
No photos but I noticed a few on the Nozawa Now page.

Trees and snow go well together in so many ways.

They seem to do gaijin sizes, interesting to have a shop catering for that.

Anyone able to explain to me the difference between shibui and nigai. I have it down here both as "bitter".
Thanks!

Green as in environmentally friendly, not color. Back home many people are now replacing the normal bulbs with ones that are a bit more friendly to earth and the like. Do they have them here and anyone know what they are called in Japanese?
Thanks.

They're getting weirder all the time. I just got one with the subject line:

Cheers for all the pics and stuff.
That run doesn't look 50m wide to me.
Some porkies being told perhaps?

Shiga Kogen is an awesome place. Yuo should try it.

It is about 1 hour drive from Hakuba to Nagano City.
It's then another 1-1.5 hour drive from Nagano to Shiga Kogen.
More in bad conditions of course.

The mario game - get past the cutest characters - is excellent. Might even get one for myself after playing some of that.

Anyone seen the latest Michael Moore flick, Sicko? This time its about the US health service and the 'victims' of it.

$16,000 a month on clothing! Just think how much that would increase if she actually bought panties!

Is that like the deep-fried bread?

Was there any snow on the hill at all? Looks very snow-less.

Great work folks. Those maps are truly excellent. Get some more info on them and they will be 10 *
