We went to Nagano to ski with our baby
Madarao Kogen Ski Slope

  We used to go to ski by night train before having baby.  Now it is not easy to go skiing with baby.  We forget to go skiing this season.  One day, we found there are many ski slopes with day-care center who take care of your baby.  We found this Madarao Kogen ski slope through "Tom-Boy", ski slop database system in internet.  We used "with day-care center" as key to search.  There are quite many ski slops with day-care center.  We selected this place.  Because, we found that Madarao Kogen is convenient to access by Nagano Shinkansen train which was open last year, 1997.

  We departure in the morning of 2rd of February 1998.  We arrived 1 PM.  From 2 PM, we start to ski.  Day-care center is in Madarao Kogen Hotel.  They take care of your baby until 4 PM.  You can enjoy skiing.
 

 
 
  Next day, we enjoyed skiing from the morning.  We picked him up and had a launch him.  There are 16 course in this Madarao Kogen ski slop.  You can go to Tang lam ski circus, beside this ski slope.  We enjoyed many slops.  Then we went to pick him up by 4 PM.

  Our baby boy played with snow.  He looked surprised that it is white every thing here.   He found it is so cold his hands, his face when he fall down.
 

 
 
 You have to prepare every stuff for your baby.  Nobody sell diapers, baby food here.  You might find your baby doesn't want to eat anything at dinner in your pension.  Usually, their dinner menu is fixed one menu.

We are very happy to go skiing this season.
