Here are the girls all pretending to be asleep. In fact this photo was taken mere moments before we all leapt out of bed, full of joy and love and bursting with excitement at the thought of the traditional Japanese breakfast that was awaiting us downstairs. Not.

Today we woke up bright and early and all traipsed along to the proposed venue for our yearly school camp (otherwise known as "Kangaroo Republic"). The new hotel is a ski resort in Winter so we wanted to check it out minus the snow. Our camp is in August and involves a couple of nights away with the kids.

Here's a picture of the mountains right next to the hotel. You can see ski lifts and there are still a couple of patches of snow near the top of the mountains.
