burnished and buffed burnished and buffed tell me about your homeworld corky search corkysaintclair blog sunday july 20 2025 ginzan it started with a photo i saw on tik tok with yearning music it was scene of an old village set in snow with romantic electric lights illuminating flurries of snow i stared at the image thinking it looked magical i wondered where this dreamy snow world was and why it looked so beautiful is ginzan onsen worth visiting in a word yes with the caveat that it is prettier at night and you can only visit at night if you are staying in one of the local ryokans booking a ryokan booking a stay in ginzan onsen isn t easy we tried to get a room at kosekiya most popular ryokans in regional japan work on a 180 day rolling calendar some let japanese speakers book by phone which can bypass the online release schedule i hired someone to make those calls for me and eventually we found a hotel with availability kosekiya releases one night stays every 180 days if you want more than one night you go on a waitlist as extra nights are released they contact people on the list we tried six times and managed to book one night in the middle of february ginzan onsen travel restrictions it is worth noting that ginzan onsen has become so popular that the yamagata prefecture implemented a series of visit restrictions this winter 2025 to tackle the growing issues of over tourism these measures included limiting the number of visitors to 100 per hour during regulated hours 5 pm to 8 pm prohibiting private vehicles from entering 8 pm to 9 am and requesting tourists to use a park and ride system with shuttle buses to access the hot spring area during specific times there were so many tourists when we arrived and it seemed like more and more buses arrived if you were claustrophobic i would avoid this scene the pathways are narrow and icy people were falling over ginzan onsen after hours after all the tourists and buses left a calm settled over the village the lights came on and as if on cue it began to snow light perfect snow paired with the old buildings and glowing lamps it felt like a fairytale had come to life it felt like a party everyone was in a good mood chatting to strangers smiling and taking photos for each other we also got up at 5 30am to see the sun rise it was very peaceful and pretty but to be honest the best photos were at night as the lighting from the old buildings plus the snow is incredibly pretty its impossible to take a bad photo ginzan so onsen ryokan kosekiya gave us access to another hotel ginzan so which was much fancier the onsen in ginzan so is amazing there is an indoor bath then there is a large outdoor balcony bath below that is another balcony which is at tree line imagine standing facing snow covered pine trees beyond that was a snowy valley with a little river winding through it it looked like you were bathing in the most splendid snowy painting how to do i get to ginzan onsen from japan take the yamagata shinkansen from tokyo or omiya to oishida station via sendai we went from omiya to sendai then changed to a local train the trip is scenic and easy but don t expect english signage everywhere once you re off the shinkansen from oishida station our resort said they would send a shuttle bus to get us but as were waiting i saw a bus and i instinctively knew it was going to ginzan onsen so we hopped on that even with all out suitcases people are so nice in japan no one even rolled their eyes even though we had all our suitcase the local bus dropped us off 400 metres from our ryokan and we had to walk down an old road covered in snow so if you aren t fit i recommend letting your ryokan pick you up cultural considerations it was hard to get to ginzan onsen especially for just one night but one night was enough unless you were staying at ginzan so it felt like a bucket list trip for japanese visitors too some had full media rigs tripods lighting coordinated outfits everyone chasing their perfect shot even at the onsen there was a kind of unspoken competition viewing positions at tree line were sought after we can t speak japanese fluently but there was clearly some territory marking going on we ended up standing behind the group who were hogging the views that shifted the dynamic they instantly moved a power move for sure but worth it the view was sublime a once in a lifetime experience to be bathing with snow covered trees in your immediate line of vision no comments at 5 26 am posted by kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkrs wednesday june 19 2024 speech perhaps the most famous wedding speech in cinema is hugh grant s speech in four weddings and a funeral charles hugh grant in four weddings and a funeral ladies and gentlemen i am as ever in bewildered awe of anyone who makes this kind of commitment that angus and laura have made today i know i couldn t do it and i think it s wonderful they can i know they are friends of mine and i know they will continue to be friends of mine whatever happens in the next few hours days months and years however as sole single member of the bridegroom s party it is more than likely that i will be gently but firmly placed in a taxi and sent home early alone still it is a marvellous day it is a magnificent day indeed it is an awesome day it is in short the most splendid day of my life so thank you angus and laura for inviting me to it and for giving me the chance to watch two people i care for deeply make the most joyful and genuine commitment two human beings can make to one another may your days be happy and long together this speech by charles in four weddings and a funeral is effective for several reasons authenticity the speech feels genuine and heartfelt charles expresses his honest admiration and awe for the commitment that angus and laura have made which makes the speech relatable and sincere humor charles s self deprecating humor adds a lighthearted touch which is engaging and entertaining for the audience his remarks about being the sole single member and potentially being sent home alone add a humorous contrast to the solemnity of the occasion warmth and affection the speech conveys deep affection for the couple charles emphasizes his friendship with angus and laura and expresses his joy in witnessing their union which adds emotional depth gratitude charles thanks the couple for inviting him and allowing him to witness their commitment this shows his appreciation and adds a respectful tone to the speech well wishes he ends the speech with a heartfelt wish for their happiness and long life together which is a traditional and appropriate way to conclude a wedding speech varied tone the speech balances humor and sentiment keeping the audience engaged and moving smoothly between lighthearted and sincere moments when writing your own wedding speech here are some questions to ask yourself as starting points how did you and your partner meet what are some of your favourite memories together when did you realise you wanted to spend your lives together what qualities do you most admire in your partner is there a particular story or moment that encapsulates your relationship how has your relationship grown over time what are your hopes and dreams for your future together do you want to include any special mentions or thank yous to family friends or others are there any particular values or beliefs that are important to you both and your relationship would you like to include any quotes poems or references that hold special meaning for you no comments at 7
