There is a ski resort near Kamioka Town, and the UWA visitors went skiing during the weekends. It was Alex’s first time skiing, but she made rapid progress thanks to Carl, who turned out to be a very good teacher.
They also joined a hiking trip to Kamikochi organized by Okinaka-san, a secretary at ICRR. Kenta Tanaka and Nojiri-san also joined the trip, making it a very enjoyable outdoor activity during the visit.
