Non Non Biyori Episode 11

 It is snowing hard and the bus has stopped running, thus, Natsumi, Renge, Hotaru, Komari and Kazuho have to stay at the school, I think that Subaru also stayed too. Kazuho says that there is a problem that there is not enough futon(mattress). There is just two futon and one sleeping bag. No one wants to sleep in the sleeping bag because it will be cold. While Kazuho says that there might be a fight for the futon she sleeped into one and fall asleep as fast as lightning. Renge decides to sleep in the futon because she is small so it is decided that a small person and a big person will get the futon. So Komari is decided as the other small person and Natsumi and Hotaru have to fight over the remaining place and who will sleep in the sleeping bag. Every match Natsumi is mostly losing to Hotaru. As they are arguing about the sleeping place they hear Kazuho sleep talking they put her in the sleeping bag while she is asleep and the four share the futons. Subaru was sleeping alone in the school infirmary.

 Not being able to sleep, Hotaru decides to go for a walk. Komari sees her and tell Natsumi to come with her to look for Hotaru. After taking flashlight the sisters go outside and see Hotaru putting her hands up as if she is calling aliens. In fact she was just happy to see the stars and felt as if she could grab them. She goes in to close the tap that she forgot to properly close and Renge sees her and think that there was a festival there. After talking about alien Hotaru and Renge hear a sound outside, when they go outside to look they find an alien like figure buried in snow. It was Natsumi and Komari.

 Later on a school vacation day, Kazuho thinks that she can get some more sleep when Renge come in and wake her by jumping on her. Renge points that there is a snow and Kazuho tells her that they can ski with this much snow. While saying it was just and idea and that they don't have ski equipment, she remembers Kaede. Everyone goes to ski together. Even not knowing how to ski, Natsumi gives lessons to the others. When they fail to ski and it is her turn she admit to Kaede that she can't ski and Kaede kick her down the slope. Down the slope the others already started to build an igloo. It was Hotaru's idea to build an igloo and she is quite hyper about it. Kaede, Kazuho and Subaru are preparing tonjiru. They have their fun in the igloo and even starts to prepare mochi. After the mochi is cooked they start makin tonjiru call.

 Changes of seasons are happening fast in this anime, well not that I am against it. I really like the part where they spend the night at school. Though i think it would be really cold in that building with holes. The night and start were very well showed which makes anyone fantasies about a good camping in the mountain, forgetting about the mosquitoes.I have never skied before but am sure I would not want Natsumi to be my instructor. Making the igloo and all is great but I am a bit worried about lighting a shichhirin( charcoal grill) in such a confined space. I don't know much about it but be careful.
