Thanks guys. I asked a travel agent here in SYD about Onsen and they recommended the Gero Sumeikan. They didn't say anything about accesibility during winter but I did tell them I am going in Jan... I might give Sapporo a miss if I can find snow on my other route............

Well, I looked up Gero on the Internet, and it seems that there's a train from Nagoya, so accessibility shouldn't be a problem.

Ok thanks. Are the snow monkeys worth viewing?

No. They just sit around scratching their ar$es and picking flees from each others backs. If you want to see that kind of thing, you ought to come to a Mabo Nemawashi.

The food is good, though.
