Repatriated to Japan after 11 years in Dubai

Some snow (ice) climbing before going to school.

@Magnum702 @RaraSensei It's not really too cold in Niigata. I lived in Matsumoto (Nagano) and it's so much colder there but without snow :)

[Grace @thisgracef]

The walkways are always clear, thank you.

I had an online test for a job I applied recently and the company expected I still know COLLEGE ALGEBRA, 20 years after I graduated college. 😵

@Magnum702 @RaraSensei Niigata represent! You say you don't mind the snow? My son goes to school in ski wear :)

@MKinTokyo I think I've not seen shark meat in the supermarkets here. However, in Dubai where we previously lived, whole baby sharks were always available. (Still didn't try!)

[Grace @thisgracef]

@MKinTokyo My son said it's good! I have not tried it. Maybe if I won't know it's a shark…

[Grace @thisgracef]

@Mystique_16 Well, to be fair it looks significant enough. We have water coming out of the roads here so snow doesn't accumulate

[Grace @thisgracef]

@Mystique_16 No. Wazzat

[Grace @thisgracef]

@Mystique_16 But the saving grace here is that it's not as cold as Canada. We're only hovering -3C to 0C on snow days

[Grace @thisgracef]

@Mystique_16 I'm still lingering on Twitter, reading trends many times daily

[Grace @thisgracef]

@Mystique_16 Now I wanna see what sort of snow gets schools closed down :)

[Grace @thisgracef]

@LejlaCharif Yeah the kids can do lots of snow play and not freeze.

[Grace @thisgracef]

雪止まらないです❗

[Grace @thisgracef]

Current snow accumulation in Tokamachi City: 273 cm. And it is still snowing.

[Grace @thisgracef]

The current cold snap sending tons of snow at areas on the side of the Sea of Japan.
