Arrived and loving it!
Well i'm here in Niseko and although there's not actually very much snow here yet and the mountain isn't open for another few weeks, im having a great time sampling the local cuisine and meeting with the locals... last night i went out to a "Cook your own Beef" restaurant and ate stuff i would never have imagined.. beef...beef toungue, heart, entrails, stomache... etc.. and i must say that it was all very delicious! oishkatta!

i've spent most of the last week just hanging out in the lodge im saying in and just relaxing.

The Snow... the snow started to fall last night and we had about 10cm overnight, apparently there's a large dump on it's way and due for the end of this week... it's been snowing a bit today, but nothing to write home about ;)
I'm going to head into the local town of Kutchan tommorow to try to organise my Gaijin card so i can get a cell phone and my own wireless internet connection...
