Good morning from Hakuba and it's a lovely morning.
It's nice and cold, too, and thankfully calmer.
It will turn out to be a mild day.
So, looking ahead, hopefully we'll be getting fresh snow tomorrow. But it's not going to be long-lasting and beyond that there's more sun forecast and what looks like a Japan-wide mild/warm weekend.
Not the most excite news for us snow loving folk.
Still, there is fun to be had out there as we wait for more significant refills.
And who can not be in awe of the scenery on offer while you're having that fun.
That's what I'm doing this morning!
