Hi KiwiPippa,
I'm in Hokkaido for the next 10 weeks towing gliders in Takikawa. We miss some of the rainy season this far north (43 degrees).
Having a Kobo makes it so much easier to have plenty of books to read on days like this. English language books are not available in the local shops and sadly my Japanese language skills are close to zero, but I still have lots of fun without making too much of a fool of myself.
Later - Of course, in the end today was much like Melbourne - four seasons in one day but with out the cold
