We went to Nozawa Onsen ski resort and Hakuba Goryu ski resort in Nagano for skiing during new year vacation with my friends. We were 6 people including us. We go skiing Nagano every year, and they live in Nagoya and Fukuoka, so we meet each other once a year. I enjoyed skiing, talking, drinking and hot springs with them.
Thanks to much snow in Nozawa Onsen ski resort, we enjoyed powder snow there. On the other hand, it was still lack of snow in Hakuba. We had to pay attention on ski slopes, because there were many stones and bushes in ski runs.
In the photo above, he is so cute, and will ski next year. He is two years old now.
