Happy Christmas everyone!

Today is Christmas Day and I am spending it quietly at home. Maybe I will go to the gym to exercise after too many end of year parties, and I have to make a dessert for a friend's pot luck party tomorrow. Later this afternoon I will drive to Otaru to have dinner with my partner because he is working at Kiroro ski resort and can't come home easily for 10 days.

Thankyou for some lovely cards and presents - I wish all of you a relaxing winter holidays.


This week I have enjoyed some Christmas jazz - on Wednesday I went to a concert in the roof event space at Sapporo Dome - fantastic place for a concert! And later the same day I went to Odori to see a friend perform jazz at Dog of Flanders - a Belgian beer pub.
And...look who came!

My ski season started yesterday at Kokusai Ski area.
Beautiful sunny day -I even saw one man skiing in shorts - but after Friday's rain the courses were icy. 
The top of the mountain was ok in the morning, and gradually everything warmed up and by lunchtime it was like spring, slushy skiing.
Excellent views from the top. The Chinese tourists who ride the gondola to the top to take pictures were very happy.
I skied slowly and carefully, but I was very happy to get out in the sunshine and enjoy winter.
AND!!!! Kokusai ski area restaurant - second floor Woodpecker - has fantastic pizzas for lunch now. They are cooked to order and I ate a whole pizza on my own. And then skied some more. :-)

OKAY!

I will start Christmas in Imagine.

I know I said "too early!" - but I am influenced by all the decorations in Sapporo right now. So yesterday I got out the Christmas decorations and started making the classroom feel festive.

This year I bought some new decorations - when you come for your lesson can you guess which are new?
