best skier in hakuba

Don't I just know it! Probably best to flag it up as such.

Sometimes I feel like climbing into the fridge........

If they haven't decided on anything, how come we have a price number? Wonder how many people would buy at that cost.

Lumberjacks alert!

That looks much steeper on the smaller squashed up image on the top of the forums index.

Boarders tend to avoid resorts that have tons of moguls. Lots of skiers do as well actually.

I think the prize in my case must go to Cortina. Again living nearby gives it more of a chance, but it does get some lovely snow.

Yes what he said. Feels better if you can just leave Japan for 6 weeks though. Wish I could!

As you might expect, it's 'cooler' here than in the city, but still probably hitting 30C today.

Where's the second one?!?

I think I'm going to order a pizza, can't resist.

Poor kid.

High 30's in Kyushu today where they are clearing up from the floods. kawai so...

Five attacks in 12 months, while catastrophic for families involved, is still statistically low. Better policing, eg surfarthur's tagging idea, would work better. Sonars to ward sharks off the area too. Sounds like a good way to go forward to me.

Simplistic, and not always true.

Me too. Having said that, haven't seen it for a number of years now. Still tons of drug scandals?

I started with that Body Double but it was quite clear that it was going to be really bad!

Cooled down somewhat today.

Definitely a bit of shaking going on here. I was on the 3rd floor of an old wooden building, so probably felt it more than other lucky people!

I'll refrain from getting the hump. And I've only got one camel anyway, and I want to keep it.

I see you plan to get to Japan moon sausage. They're great, look forward to it.

Do you take camels?

I presume lots of it will be on Japanese tv. Evening/late night Japan time?
