Happy New Year, y'all!

Today I learned about hatsuhinode from @thisismyglasgow, and in that spirit here is the morning view out my back window:

Hatsuhinode is the Japanese concept of observing the first sunrise of the new year. This is what it looked like on Great Western Road in thr Kelvunbridge area of Glasgow. Welcome to 2026!

Good morning Nagoya, and Happy New Year! Today, we successfully witnessed hatsuhinode, the first sunrise of 2026, from the 36th floor lounge of the Marriott Associa! Viewing the first sunrise is a Japanese custom that we failed at last year in Niseko due to snow so we're happy to have been able to see the Sun rise today! #hatsuhinode #sunrise #NagoyaMarriottAssocia #Nagoya #Aichi #Japan

We woke up early for Hatsuhinode, up on Niseko Annupuri. No sun was to be seen. We returned for breakfast at the Hilton and then headed out for our first ski day of the trip. After, we headed to Hirafu for a very late lunch before returning.

I have always loved the Japanese tradition of Hatsuhinode, or watching the first sunrise of the New Year. Granted, I didn’t stay up to watch it, but the dogs made sure I saw it. #happynewyear #Hatsuhinode #sunrise

First sunrise of 2023🎉 Happy New Year, everyone 🙏
