Had a bit of a sleep in this morning, which was nice. We decided it was too late to travel far and after breakfast, we headed to Goryo (our local mountain). Nothing much exciting happened, we just had an awesome day on yesterday's powder. There were a few stacks, mostly caused by me. And somehow I was the only one who got away with not stacking on film. We're sitting down in the main cafeteria having a bite to eat now. I got the nippon special, but I'm starting to regret it. The spicy meal just smells so good. We're planning on going out tonight. But after a visit to the onsen. I'm doubting if it will happen.

We arrived back at Jimmy's house after the snow
And you'll never guess who was waiting for us. Crazy steak restaurant guy!
He was waiting for us outside.
Waiting for US.
Specifically.
No idea how long he had been there.
That's not creepy right...?
He tells us that he is heading to the supermarket if we want a lift. Being the intelligent intellectuals we are, we accept. The whole way there he spruiks a lift to tokyo for a measly 50000 yen (=$650). ...which we politely decline. As this was our first trip to the supermarket, we stocked up. I didn't find even one item that could be found in Australia. It was awesome. I wanted to just buy every item there.
We also had a quick look at the 100 yen shop. Dollar shops in Australia have nothing on this.
On the way home we stopped off at the liquor store. Which probably wasn't the best idea... We bought the highest quality bottle of whiskey we could find.

We played a few games of kings, planning to go out. But when we realised it was -14°C outside, we decided to stay in. As with any quality whiskey, it should be savoured, and as such, we didn't quite finish the bottle. Satisfied that we had drunk enough for a pretty killer headache in the morning, we stumbled into bed.
