Honestly speaking, the Windsor Hotel Toya is just a big ol' luxurious Western-style hotel sitting on top of a mountain overlooking a spectacular volcano-made lake.

My spousal unit and I made a detour one day last year and went to visit it.  It was closed. In fact, they'd gone bankrupt or something. So we returned to the mountain one day to try to get a good view of Lake Toya and found the hotel had re-opened. Excellent. Now I could do what I meant to do the first time....collect background scenery for my friend in Greece. She is doing photo manipulations for my fan fiction. My priorities are straight! As I said before, this hotel will be the main venue for next year's G-8 summit.

I'm sorry these images are not dial-up friendly!
