skier1 0 Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 Hi everyone I am glad to find this site. I am impressed, I think it is so better than Japanese ones, I was surprised! Sorry my bad English I will try to post for you understanding. Today my family went to Joetsu Kokusai in Niigata. It is close to my wife hometown and we are here for new year holiday. My photo will not win any contest but I will share. I hope you have good new year. Glad to be here! The family - me and three ladies! It was mixed weather all day, but cold I put more in gallery.

skier1 0 Posted December 28, 2008 Author Share Posted December 28, 2008 Hello joshnii Variable. In some parts it was very good but in others quite heavy. Weather was changeable also, sometimes wet snow, sometimes clear, often very windy. Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 skier1, No need to apologise for your english, it's fine! Good to hear from you, and good to see the pics. You look after those ladies, won't you! In about 2 weeks, I will be at Nozawa Onsen, just a bit south of you. I notice that they have had a couple of days pf decent snow, and there is plenty of powder to slide on/in! Enjoy, and keep posting! Link to post Share on other sites

skier1 0 Posted December 29, 2008 Author Share Posted December 29, 2008 Yes we enjoyed it. I think it is better resort than Joetsu Kokusai. It is also many pretty view of surrounding. We had fun with shadows on the lift I put more photo in gallery. I think next time ski for my family is 2nd week of January. Have good new year everybody. Link to post Share on other sites
