The first 2 days we took an early bus from the station to Shiga Kogen to go snowboarding (report here)
the train to Yudanaka was a bit slower and less luxurious than the other trains we took, but it got us there
Our rooms at Ryokan Hakura were half western, half Japanese, which was a nice mix
We got to enjoy a very yummy dinner in our Ryokan after our first day of skiing
the road to shiga kogen's remote bigger resorts was time consuming, nice curved bridge here
the 2nd night after skiing, we had dinner in a local restaurant
Onozawa-San giving us a farewell
