Sori
The snow was coming dowwwwn today. I went to Saigoshi, which I often refer to as the mochi school (see the mochi entry in December). The first grade showed me their homemade kites in action as we stood up to our knees in snow. Then my friend Miwa brought out some sledges (sori) for us to play on. As we walked up a big hill, and slid down squealing, the snow started to try and kill us. It didn't quite succeed, but it was fun running away from it. Today I also booked my adventure in April...more on that later.
