mind you, they were young at heart but not into staying at backpacker's sort of way.


Well as they stay in hotels their not our market so what do we care how expensive the hotels are. Actually it probably helps get more people into our accom. Great!! razz

It's still getting warm during the afternoons here in Saitama... so depressing... I'm actually sitting at work in shorts right now...

 

Probably going out first time this year on the weekend of the 21-22 of this month, might check out Niigata, Kagura or something....

I've been thinking about getting a ruggedized camera for snow trips. What model did you get?
