We love predictability as much as novelty. There are a few regular trips we make every year - the ski resorts in Hirayu and Inawashiro, and the beach resort in Katsuura.A couple of weeks ago, we went on daddy's "zemi" (as in seminar) trip to Inawashiro and again stayed at the Listel. It's Minori's third time there.
On this trip it felt like we were in Hongkong. People were speaking cantonese and mandarin every where in the resort. I met a Hongkong family who told me that schools in Hongkong were having their vacation. No wonder.
Here are more pictures (pictures with compliments from Yumix).

Daddy and several of his students.
"Oh, snowboarder!" the guy from Hongkong said. "And you say you're from Malaysia??" (Malaysia boleh! :D )
This is my favorite batch of zemi students. They are such a fun bunch! This is probably the last time we'll see everyone together before we leave for Germany (one guy from China not photographed here as he had to leave early that morning to catch his flight back to China for the Chinese new year).All the best in your future undertakings! We miss you all already!
