Thank you!

[Mobile phones at resorts]

I was wondering how coverage was at resorts here? I will be in Yuzawa area next week and with family and so just hope I might be able to use the phone to keep in touch etc. Can you use phones on the mountains or not?

 

Thanks

I think you might be right there. That means that Gunma is in the background.

[Things you can't help laughing at]

That is just hilarious.

 

[anyone ever lived in Niseko for the winter?]

Good luck. (But surely the people you were working for might be good people to ask!)

 

I'd love to have a season living near the snow.

[Is it a boy?]

I had some red (pink?) and white mochi. God knows why. It was nice though.

We've all heard about Kokudo selling off resorts, but I have heard a rumour of another well known resort going under....

 

Any guesses?

[Rain]

 

No. I mean the wet stuff that falls from the sky.

[Noodles]

What noodles do you like best? I really like them when I get them in front of me - especially soba - but I'm really no good at remembering all the names and everything.

Spain were great last night, best form of the competition maybe so far?

[Rain]

Lots of rain rain rain.

 

Are we going to get flooded again this year I wonder?

I'm still increasing my skills on a board and so not contemplating trying out skiing. Maybe sometime in the future.
