01 February 2005 - 03 February 2005

Last Updated: 04/02/05

The Big Snow of the winter started on Monday (31st January), and it got steadily worse towards the middle of the week.  Bear in mind that today (3rd February) is "Setsubun" - the first day of spring.  Yeah.  Right.

These photos are a selection I've taken on my way to work over the course of three days.  Enjoy.

Yes, there is a car under there.  Thankfully it isn't ours (it's our neighbour's) - Tom had already cleared ours ;)

Itagakibashi-dori - the main road our apartment is very close to.

Sakura dori - the other main road our apartment is right near.  And yes, that is a thick sheet of ice on the road.
