Snowboarding at Nozawa Onsen

There was supposedly snowfall in Tokyo but I wasn't here to see it, because last weekend we went snowboarding with Eric, John, Hiroko and Ayako to a Snowboard trip in Nozawa Onsen!! 2 days of fresh powder with good food and onsen afterwards, what more can you ask for? Thanks Eric papa for inviting us! I came back on Sunday night, went to the office and worked until 6AM, dead tired! Good thing I got today off. Check out more photos at flickr.

Nozawa Onsen village had great Oyaki
