On Monday it snowed! It was beautiful to look out the window of a high rise building and see the snow swirling so far above AND below us. I heard we got between 8 and 12 cm (not that I measured myself).
I didn't take any pictures while it was snowing, but I did go to the neighborhood shrine the next day to take some pictures before all the snow melted off.

Later in the week I discovered a couple of really cute snowmen near our house.

Rumor has it John will soon be making an appearance soon with a blog about computer buying/building in Japan.

Beautiful photos! If you like the grey/green winter, you should try the Pacific Northwest when you come back. You might find you miss the sun though...
