Welcome!

Welcome to the New Year! Some have celebrated the New Year before I. Some have yet to fall upon the New Year. Eventually, we will all move forward, like it or not. One of these years, I would like to spend the first day of the year in my beloved Tokyo. Unless I hit the lottery, its not going to happen next year. Alas, plans are being made to attend the Sapporro Snow Festival, Yuki Matsuri, in 2011. Coincidentally, this will fall into my master plan, muwa ha ha! Ever since the first visit in 2001, I had made flip remark about coming back every 5 years for the festival. Last time was in 2006.
