Over the weekend, with my partners in crime (my family here), we took off to not sunnier but snowier climes, about an hour or two away (time flying by so quickly going there, with such joy, that time meant nothing). The plan was to spend a day/evening at the hot springs (onsen) hotel, which was a first for me in snowy weather. Even more amazing is that there were entirely outdoor baths, which could only be accessed by walking outside (along a shoveled path)- being the only one there, naked and alone among the elements, the full moon above, snow descending down, snow from the mountains being blown- that was freedom, freedom, freedom.
An extraordinary experience, and made even better by having the feeling of being alone but with my most familiars nearby.
