Better late than never, first update of the new year. Wow, already Jan 15th, half gone of the first month of the year. Where does the time go???? I was in Canada over the xmas and new year holidays. Busy, busy visiting family and friends. Had a great time in the great Canadian cold weather, -35 and wind chill -42 yikes...... so needless to say no skiing for this girl, we did get some walks in though, and enjoyed the blue sky but, chilly temps.

Back in Japan at the moment and went right back to work then an avalanche course.....fun fun. Kouji and I finally got a day off together and enjoyed the new fresh 60cm of powder that day......lots of pics so here they are enjoy and back at you soon.....
