sorry, again I have not written a long time, I should be more mobilized, but lately I've been very busy sending two articles and conference in Hakodate.
do not promise to improve:).
First Hakodate.
came here for a little konferecję, WBS, Wide-Band Systems. Such a conference myself, I will explain later, I start from the city. City surprised me a little. Earlier I spoke with Dali at Hakodate, said that such a city, so before departure to the guide did not even looked. As the plane started to read, it immediately struck me - I have somewhere in the city saw ... and indeed, in the anime Noein named ... just that as I watched this anime, I was totally convinced that I see another fictional Japanese city. And on the contrary, the city is very well made (although podkoloryzowane), still meet the current space in Noein ... What makes the tour much przyjemnieszym.
So, the main point of attention in the city of Hakodate is a mountain, surrounded on three sides with water, and the fourth Mierzeja the mainland. I just spit on this city is. Because of its usytuwania, Hakodate is an excellent port and next to Nagasaki and Yokohama, one of the first three are open to trade with the West. This is evident in the city, there are many buildings from the Meiji era, opening up the world. There are old consulates, churches, docks, warehouses, Western cemeteries ...
snow lies there still was a small blizzard. Hakodate is definitely north of Nagoya (Hokkaido). I wanted to climb a mountain, but unfortunately you can not. The trails are still covered with ice, so cars will not let up. Cableway unfortunately expensive, but you had to pay to see the famous skyline at night Hakodate. Really impressive.

As for the conference, was held at the university Mirai Daigaku - University of the Future. A small school, with a very modern building. I will not say that I liked. Is very high, all the rooms have five or more feet in height. All the time I think about the warming of this building ... besides, sometimes it looks as a factory hall, with transitions high in the air. They also have the most "open room" labs I've ever seen. Normal open room to say that zamist Cabinet is to pitch in the rooms. Here as well, but that is not in the room and in the great hall ... which looks from the top as he goes to the main hall! Also most of the walls is made of glass, and privacy ... not too much. Not a place I wanted to work ...
conference itself was nuudna. Only in Japanese, so little understood. My presentation ... failed as well. I managed to delete the slide from summary of the presentation and just before I had a very unpleasant time during the presentation when I said, "To sum up ..." and somehow the last slide did not want to show:).
This weekend we went to the Hakuby. Hakuba is a ski resort, among other things, he was used during the Olympics Winter in Nagano (Hakuba in Nagano Prefecture.) We went with 6 people, I, Dali (CZ), Stepan (CZ), Julie (GB), Kathi (D) and Anna (RU). They would be even David and Fran from Spain but sleepy on the bus:).
Headquarters, we had such a pension, but with good food, so I'm not complaining:). The area reminded me very Urls. Buildings rarely scattered among the pine forest. The fee we also rent equipment. This time I took a ski carvingi (before I was snowboarding in a different medium, Meiho).
first day the weather was not too good. Severe snow and wind. I bought a new hat and goggles, but to be able to ride, but for example, Anna gave up after several hours.
second day it was too great. No wind, sun ... is incredibly traveled.
ski resort was very large, called Hakuba 47, and had 2 lifts and 13 ski lifts.
