MamfainJapan: Snow bloody Snow!

The hardcore crew

I never thought I would say this, but the snow is really beginning to annoy me. I think Sam and I may have jinxed ourselves because we said we wanted to stay in Fukui for the snow, however this snow has trapped us in Fukui ken. All trains have been cancelled and the highway has been closed. As I type this, the lorries are queued up in the laybys, wouldn`t want to be one of them tonight. Fortunately we have managed to change our flight to Friday, so fingers crossed the snow will stop tomorrow and we will be able to get a train to Osaka. On a more positive note, on Sunday I hit the slopes for the first time this season. It was great to be back on the board. Although I think I may need to work on the old thighs as they were a bit stiff on Monday. There was a break in the clouds at one point and for the first time in weeks we saw some sunshine. Apparently it`s supposed to snow for a week and its coming from good ole Russia, so who knows if I`ll ever make it home........
