This was our third trip up to Hokkaido (Travus' second). This time Grandma and Mamoru went up with us. All stayed at J-First (where else?) and had two hard and fast days in the Annupuri backbowls. Chizuko's brother had a great time again, as he was able to get in more powder in two days in Niseko than he gets in a whole season at the resorts near Tokyo! Grandma enjoyed herself as well, as her and Travus spent quality time together at Onsens and playing outdoors in the snow. We of course got Travus on the skis for two hours each day, bringing his total days on the slopes this season to 5.
