Tubby Beaver 209 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I'm off sat and sun. Regular weekends, if you are around and want to go that'd be cool. Shinken, isn't Vienna near to the Alps? I'd love to visit Vienna, dunno why but its always appealed to me Link to post Share on other sites

ortwin 0 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Actually Vienna is not so close to the Alps. There are a few small ski ressorts within 1hr drive, but to get to a good one it takes about 3hrs. On the other hand Vienna is always listed among the best cities to live in, concerning life quality etc. 2007 quality of living guide So I guess I shouldn´t complain.

sock_monkey 0 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 22 days last year... should be able to beat that this year. Currently at 9. Pretty much guaranteed 5 days during winter break then I would only need 2 days a month til the end of season to reach 22. Hmmm, 30+ might finally be in the cards. Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 snowdude, how did you get there? I've been looking for buses to get there but can't seem to find any company that goes there. Which is a shame as Marunuma is 2000metres! Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Tubby Beaver, I went by my car, from my second house in Takayama. It takes about 1 hour from Numata. Sorry I have not idea whether or not you can go by bus. Maybe if you ask at a travel agency they can tell you. Link to post Share on other sites
