Hello from Nozawa Onsen.


What a wonderful morning it is!


The sun is out and increasing blue skies as the morning goes on.


Oh yes, and there's a fine layer of fresh white snow on the ground and in the village. It's the first snowfall down to village of the season, and an impressive showing too. I measure slightly under 15cm.


The ski area is planning for an opening on Saturday 29th November.


I'll keep you up to date on the situation as that date approaches.
