I hate to say goodbye - after so many 'hellos'

Did I just dream December, or was it really cool?!

So, that was December...as usual a bit of a scramble at the end!

Treated to fine blue skies in Matsumoto, plummeting temperatures but perennial cheerfulness at Sasabe. See all the smiles and so much more in this final slideshow of the year.

October round-up in a Catatonia Slideshow

Here are some of the highlights in pictures as the sun slipped lower over our kindergarten. Lots of Karaoke Queens (and Kings) here! Obviously everyone having too much fun!
