Mount Fuji Adventure - Saturday 16th February

Well it was an early start for my Mount Fuji tour today as we had to meet at 8.40am sharp to catch the bus.

The tour guide was called Harry and he had to be the funniest guy I have ever met in my life - on route to Mount Fuji I think he was meant to be telling us about the sights on route and a bit about Mount Fuji but not Harry he was discussing drug dealing in not only Japan but worldwide and the punishments you get in each country, he talked about how the Japanese never say I love you as its too strong a word they just say like, he talked about the divorce rate in various countries and many other random subjects - he was hiliarious!!!!

Anyway eventually after the comedy act we arrived at Mount Fuji but only managed to get up to the first station as the weather had been really bad the day before and the place was covered in snow - but it was amazing!!!

 

 

We had lunch close by Mount Fuji before heading to Hakone and going on a Sightseeing Cruise over Lake Ashi and Cable Car ride but it was pretty good as it was a different boat and route and different cable car from last week when I was here in Hakone.

Then it was time to head back to Tokyo - we arrived back at 7pm so it was time for dinner and a hot bath as it was a very cold day at Mount Fuji.
