I think we'll take our chances...
You have to pay to play... That being said I'll put $37 toward your trip but to collect you'll have to meet us in Japan whilst we slay the JaPow.
If that's true what's the new 30?

I'd also throw in $37 for the cause.
That being said, doesn't anyone want to go to Japan around here?

I volunteer myself as the young buck that will willingly jump off everything to keep you old geezers laughing and feeling young again.

I'm ancient as the wind, accomplished in a wide ranging variety of useless activities including skiing, juggling and pool and while sushi and onsens are attractive, I have other plans.
Next year I'm queuing up an exclusive Tour of The Twinkie, an Alpine travelganza of Global Foods with millennia wide shelf life, saturated in polysorbate 80 (pre Croc foam shoes preferred paired with polka dot mumus) with packaging from plasticized orgami masters in Mrs. Preske 'Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers' designer bags that can impress the virtualatti across Fecebook Walls Of Voodoo and other proponents of Mexican Radio.
But wait, there's more since lurking in your Dlls are legions of unbridled threads and IO completion queuing mechanisms that threaten to spawn ISIS like code paths of dystopic execution just as the Dll is getting unloaded. Needless to say this required our immediate attention and sleuthworks in attempting to trap those errant schedulers of Cosmodigilogical demise, probing deeply into stacks of TppWorkerThread crashes and the attendant queuing mechanisms. And we, like the NSA, tribulantly trumpet our perceived successes over the likes of the Snowden like t-phage code vectors. This has taken most of my attention cycles between kids soccer, ballet, symphony, gardening, lawn sport management all the while managing an abiding trenchant desire to play pool on golf courses in a wetsuit with fins.
Anyway, thanks for the invite, but really who wants verses of Tom Lehrer floating out in the onsen steam despite the beer?Merde De Glace On the Freak When Ski

Still no takers. I didn't think it'd be this tough to find some guys to go to Japan.

I'm thinking about it...
Also thinking about if I want to add a few days on at the end to check out Tokyo and maybe Hakuba.

I would love to but I'm already stretching work as much as I can. we are flying in the day before the trip starts and flying out on Thursday the 21st. as far as food goes, I'm not 100% positive but I feel like I've heard it mentioned before that some of the meals are included. Its a good question for superior but he's not answering my PM's.

Sounds like breakfast is included.
Breakfast is included on all days but lunch and dinner are not. Plan on about 3-5000Yen/day to cover those meals and a couple of drinks each day and we`ll take you to some great restaurants.

I'm really thinking about going to Japan next winter too, probably for a few months. Does anyone have any advice for a solo ski bum going cheap but wanting to learn the culture too?

Just kinda hatched the idea the last few days and was feeling it out, go to Japan to ski and maybe make my way to New Zealand for the summer. I want to do at least a couple months in Japan and really see alot, probably bum around as cheaply as possible. The guides would be fun I will consider it, but this is more my style and budget haha:
