Oyuki kigan 0 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 I got mine aleady. My mom was rummaging through the basement a few months ago and found some old buffalo wool she bought 20 years ago. Its preetty rare now, so she gave it to a lady who knits cowichan sweaters, and i supplied the design. I got a mocha (the nice way of saying the color of baby poo) zip-up hoodie made, with a huge snowflake on the back and a band of "雪" around the arms. It is super warm, and weighs in at a mere 2 kg. for my other two wishes, i would like to meet a nice girl and take a dip together ina konyoku onsen. Link to post Share on other sites

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Go to hokkaido for konyoku - they got some great ones! Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Go for kashikiri onsen instead of konyoku. I like my privacy with the girl(s). Link to post Share on other sites
woywoy 0 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Definitely Tsonda. Have to recommend the kashikiri onsen in a ryokan. If you can afford it then get a room with your own onsen on the verandah/balcony. Do you know any good places? Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 I ve already booked a place for X-mas in Yuzawa. I ve also been to some really nice ones in Hakone and Shimoda (Izu). The problem is that you have to book at least 2 months in advance, I even know some really famous mucho expensive places that have 1-year waiting list. Avarage is 15000-20000 yen per person/night, but I dont mind spending them once in a wile because the service you get is emazing. Link to post Share on other sites
ncorrenti 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 What's a konyoko onsen (as opposed to a normal onsen)? Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Konyoku onsen is the mixed one. The one that litle boys get to get inside the onsen together with litle girls. Kashikiri from the other hand is the private oncen. Some ryokans have a small onsen inside their rooms, or they alow you to book one onsen outside the room for some fixed time.

big-will 7 Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Poor gamera. You should give discounts for people who want a god on the snowblower. I wouldn't mind a go actually. For 10 minutes perhaps. Link to post Share on other sites
woywoy 0 Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Tsondaboy, do you have any webpage addresses for these "nice" onsen you are talking about. The only "nice" places I can find are 30000yen plus per person per night. Let me know if you can help me out. Where are you staying in Yuzawa for Xmas? Are you going to be riding up there then too?

bettyx 0 Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 nicole i love how girly you are. things were rather manly around here before.. GHD are the really expensive ones with ceramic plates, right? (shows how girly i am) hope santa brings me a pack of panadol. or some crumpets. Link to post Share on other sites
amandanism 0 Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 im not sure that they have GHD in canada. but i know what it is having lived in australia. anything that gets really really hot and is ceramic will do the trick though. im sick of ironing my hair with our household iron Link to post Share on other sites
ncorrenti 0 Posted December 17, 2005 Author Share Posted December 17, 2005 Hehe thanks Betty... just out of curiosity, are you Aussie? Yup, GHD are about $300 (AUD) but I think they're worth it. Manda, you should be able to find a stockist in Canada or get one off Amazon, maybe? Link to post Share on other sites
