Lots of trains and buses today as we ventured from Kobe to Mt Fuji. The weather was unkind, with clouds obscuring the mountains and the wind stopping our planned cable car ride. We had a great traditional dinner, with the entire crew wearing their Yamatos. Here's Harry and Max with more.
Today we came from Kobe and left to have lunch at a fine Italian restaurant. The lunch was magnificently crafted and decorated. It was great to have a change from the unique Japanese food. After lunch we got back on the bus and visited the 5th highest station on Mt Fuji and got a chance to by gifts from the souvenir shops. Some of the boys got blessed by an old Japanese man and got given bells for good fortune. After visiting Mt Fuji we ventured to the hotel but on the way we stopped to go on gondolas, but it was too windy, so we had to go on the pirate ships. We finally got back to the excellent Yumoto Fujija Hotel and had a beautiful traditional dinner and went to bed!
HARRY-SAN and THE MACATTACK signing out.
Off to Tokyo tomorrow. The boys are weary, but looking forward to Tokyo and our last game.
