Fuji-san

After finding out that the Studio Ghibli museum is closed for maintenance till the 22nd and the weather is dry and sunny, it is clear that today is another train intensive day. First, mount Fuji up close. But it looks like the clouds were happy hiding the snowy cone. So a climb by ropeway to Oowakudani for my dose of greenery and adrenaline rush is 'de rigueur'. Away from the bustle of Tokyo, this feels nice. Also ingested loads of fresh when sailing in front of the boat.
Next? Either a monja dinner with local couchsurfers if I make it back on time, or a Shinjuku area exploration. Either way, my stomach will have to hold the Hakone cake eaten for lunch.
