Huomenta hiihtäjät ja lumilautailijat,
That's Finnish. An appropriate greeting for the day after Christmas cuz the Finns claim Santa live in their country and now he's back home after a busy day yesterday.
Santa visited Furano overnight on his way home and dropped off 10 cm of snow, which was really nice of him. Still not enough to open the Gondola. I'd guess another 30 cm or so will be necessary, but things definitely looking good today.
Think snow.
