Not many photos today -- freezing snow, bitter winds and limited visibility, although, once again, great powder. We took some friends of Brent's, Hilary and Julius (she's Canadian, he's Australian) to An'nupuri (again), and enjoyed some nice runs even in pretty stiff winds.
Brent drove us to a Japanese "all you can eat" BBQ tonight -- Yen1500 (about $17) for all of the meat, vegetables, rice and salad you can eat. The meat is raw -- ranging from beef, lamb, chicken and sausages to chicken skin, mussels and some sort of animal organ (ick). You then cook it yourself on a little BBQ sunken in the table. Anyway, another experience, and very nice.
Tomorrow is the last day of skiing, so we're all in mixed spirits. The bodies are tired, battered and bruised, so a break will be good, but we're expecting that a couple of days in Toyko and we'll be wishing we were back in the "pow" . .
