Last and long day!

We woke up to brilliant sunshine this morning and the view of Mt Fuji from our hotel room changed so much over a couple of hours. Got a couple more good shots of him as we were leaving town.

We’ve got a long drive back to Tokyo today so we want to get away early. The first half an hour was lovely, up and down a beautiful mountain, little streams, snow top mountain views, rice fields and villages along the way.

Stopped for breakfast at a 7 eleven and then our interesting road trip was over. 3 hours of traffic lights, 40 klms an hour. We had a break and stopped at a Daiso for some last minute bargains and lunch but the rest of the day was tedium.

Dropped the car back and then we were back on the trains and buses to our hotel. It’s right beside the airport so will be good for the early start in the morning.

Reorganised our bags so we can leave the big one and the guitar here and then found the sky bar. My goodness their margaritas packed a punch and the sake was pretty good too. Found a quick dinner downstairs and we were done for the day.Read more
