Beer AFTER the onsen seems perfect to me.

Thanks! It's all such a distant memory now.

Just finished 2 weeks in Japan. A bit of business, visiting friends and the highlight was some time in Nozawa and Shiga Kogen areas of Nagano. I loved it. I know the snow isn't what it should be at this time of the year, but I really enjoyed my time at Nozawa. The snow up top was good, and the relative lack of snow at the bottom didn't matter as the best courses are up there anyway. I really want to go back.

I have just finished a 2 week holiday in Japan and really loved it. I definitely want to go back and take in some more skiing over there. I know I didn't experience it perhaps at its best but loved it anyway

They didn't attack me though, I survived

Kamoshika. Cool. What is that in English, anyone know?

....so be warned! (Just the one though, so you may be ok)

Anyone able to tell me? He was walking about under the Nozawa gondola.
