what do you see?

Well I spent an interesting Sunday/Monday in the Niseko area with E-Square - our first school trip. We ate some famous mushroom soup, visited some famous toilets (<-Japanese link, but basically these toilets cost 100 million yen to build in the late 80s when there was a lot of money being thrown around in Japan. They include a 3 million yen automatic grand piano, marble walls etc. Now they look a little dated and no better than average roadside toilets really. The taps are not even automatic!), filled our bottles with natural mineral water from a spring, saw some beautiful autumn leaves and spectacular scenery, went to a nice onsen and enjoyed a lot of food, drink and conversation (not to mention the trampoline!).
A view from the look out point at Shinsennuma.
