Here are the photos from our ski trip to Niseko with the Yeungs, Matsumotos and Romanna. They are from several cameras in a slide show - tried to keep them in order... *edit - slide show no longer supported, so link to the album below.

It was Maggie's first time snowboarding - and she didn't want to take lessons, so we were on hand to help her out here and there. I took Alex on a black diamond shortcut by accident, but he made it!

We always eat well on our trips - izakaya, shabu shabu, yakiniku, etc. Went over to the Hanozono side for crab ramen.

After Niseko we went to Jozankei hotsprings area for some soaks and relaxation - and kaiseki meals!
