Journey to Mt. Fuji ... and photo!
It's 1AM in Tokyo, and since I'm an old man I need to get to bed ... unlike some of our students! So this will be a short message. We spent today traveling to Mt. Fuji and Hakone National Park. The weather wasn't perfect, but the good news ... actually great news ... is that we actually were able to see Mt. Fuji once we got close enough. On many days the clouds and fog are so severe that it's impossible to see 'Fuji-san'. But today, we were lucky. And that makes two iconic mountains in one trip: first Everest, and now Fuji!Our students will be touring the town with the Rikkyo students tomorrow (Saturday), and then they will have Sunday free ... at least until our 'farewell' dinner on Sunday night. I will leave it up to them to tell you what they did on their weekend in Tokyo. ;-)
In the meantime, at long last, here is a photo. As you might guess, this one shows the group in front of Mt. Fuji. Enjoy!
