While many of the other teachers decided to go to the Hainan Islands, (also known as the Hawaii of China) Virginia-Claire and I took another approach to Christmas vacation and went skiing in Japan! After quite a long day, 12hours to be exact, of flying, busing, train-ing, metro-ing, and even cabbing, we finally made it to our adorable hostel where we spent 5 days and 4 nights with the nicest and most gracious hosts I have ever met. During our stay in Japan, we drank green tea, enjoyed lots of yummy sushi, skiied until we were sore, relaxed in an Onsen (Japanese Hot Spring/Spa) and even got the chance to hang out with snow monkeys! We had the time of our lives and I'm so blessed to have had the opportunity to spend this memorable holiday with a great friend!
