I stand corrected! Many thanks to Saka-san for the updated snow report. This is actually the biggest snow that Nagoya has seen in fifty-eight years. Now that's a lot of years! The official count says that we received twenty-three centimeters of snow, or nine inches. My estimate when I was out walking the other day was eight to ten inches, but I don't think I went on record with that. Now I wish I had! I was pretty excited about the snow to begin with. I hadn't realized how much I depend on the rhythms of the seasons to chart my life (hmm, getting colder... must be almost Thanksgiving!). The snow has made everything right in my world! :) It's supposed to snow again on Thursday, when we're flying home. Pray that it doesn't cause us any problems!
