Happy New (calendar) Year, and continuation of the ski season! Things really get going from now on.
Slow start to the ski day for most people, including your writer (daughter has on the endless humor/music/nostalgia TV shows that are a staple on Jan. 1, and which will suck you in if you're not careful). The big snow that has been predicted, but it's not here yet--only some light flakes falling, and that's about it. NHK television is saying that the next two days on particular look like heavy snow--and the whole prefecture has just released a heavy snow warning. Sounds good to me....
Right now the mountains are slowly disappearing in white--hopefully not fog--enven while it's still sunny to the east.
