on the way to mt. fuji...
Mount Fuji (富士山) is the highest mountain in Japan at 3,776 m... is an active volcano that last erupted in 1707–08, Mount Fuji is just west of Tokyo, and can be seen from there on a clear day.. that was a perfect weather where we managed to drive up to Level 5 of the visitor centre. The temperature is very low at the high altitude, and the cone is often covered by snow for several months of the year..
altho' is autumn in the month of october, but i still didn't see any snow covering mt. fuji....i glanced around... the sky is overcast & grey.. as i moved down the street, i can feel the strong wind. i zip my jacket juz a little. this temperature is cool & i know autumn is juz around the corner. the gray skies give way to the kind of days that make mt. fuji one of the most beautiful places in the world!
Fuji Mihana Onsen Resort
http://www.mihanagroup.jp/fujimihana/en.html
this is a great onsen resort at hakone..... what sounds better to go for an onsen (温泉) after a tiring day??.... it's too good!! i personally prefer outdoor onsen bath 露天風呂.. it's sooOoo relax ~ and pls bear in mind u are not allow to wear any clothes during onsen bath. all guests are expected to wash their bodies and rinse themselves thoroughly before entering the hot water. Bathing stations are equipped with stools, faucets, wooden buckets, and toiletries such as soap and shampoo; nearly all onsen also provide removable shower heads for bathing convenience. Entering the onsen while still dirty or with traces of soap on the body is socially unacceptable.
