pie-eater 207 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Hmmmm hadn't thought about that. A pie perhaps Link to post Share on other sites
tokabochi 9 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I like the front, not sure pies fits in there! Link to post Share on other sites
onsen tamago 0 Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Funny thread. Sure looks like a hot place to be next season. Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Any more news on the Mt Granview front? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 Nothing official but every evening when I go out on my bike I can see a few lights on up there. Working round the clock perhaps? Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Rich 78 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Fireflies maybe? Link to post Share on other sites

TheOriginalMyoko 0 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Just read through this for the first time. Funny. Never heard of the place but it sure sounds like an up and coming major destination. If only it were in our valley. Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 You'll just have to drive to get there. You might look on your home Myoko differently though once you 'taste Mr Granview'. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 Beautiful morning here with lovely blue skies and some white fluffy clouds. Was in Yuzawa and on the way back found a nice temple near Maiko. With a good view of our favourite mega-resort Mt Granview in the background. Going back out this afternoon to do some shashin benkyo.

pie-eater 207 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Can't see the diggers from that distance unfortunately. Looks like a fine day for pics. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 Could here them in the distance, pie-eater. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 There's a new "michi-no-eki" type of place being built and looking like it will open up soon on Route 17 pretty much around the Mt Granview section. (True). Obviously they want to make the most of the increased Mt Granview traffic that is expected. Link to post Share on other sites
Error404 0 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Big plans indeed! Whats the deal with michi-no-eki? How do you get that status? Link to post Share on other sites
sanjo 2 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Kind of surprised at the lack of a Michi no eki in the Yuzawa region until now. Where abouts it is? Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted June 27, 2012 Author Share Posted June 27, 2012 It's on the same land as that museum and the "Dog Run". Between Ishiuchi and Shiozawa, literally in front of the Mt Granview "mountain". Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Is that the museum with world dolls and.... knobs in it? Link to post Share on other sites
sanjo 2 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Ah yes, I know where you mean. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 Yes that's the one. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted July 9, 2012 Author Share Posted July 9, 2012 The new Michi no Eki opened yesterday. Someone I know went and brought back some fresh vegetables as a present. Link to post Share on other sites
iiyamadude 6 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Sounds like a good place to have one on that bit of Route 17. Link to post Share on other sites
sanjo 2 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Yes it does. There isn't much like that in that area of Niigata. Being close to Mt Granview will surely just be a big bonus. Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Must be. A clever and cunning move. Link to post Share on other sites
