We got a tons of snow these days and it becomes very clear day today!
We had special guests just before.
They keep visiting here every year from Taiwan and this time was the 9th time in a row.
They have known that :
the time my daughter was born.
the time we joined the Dosojin Fire Festival for my son.
the time my son was born.
the time before we got married.
We are now like a family with them :D
When they stay here, we always drink a lot of beer together and have a lot of talk about what has been going on for the past year.
Some members of them always leave ski boots here for the next season.
When they left here, I was moved to tears....
We do not know how to appreciate and do hope to help they have precious memories in Nozawa onsen again.
Thank you very much and we hope to see you next year!
