tokyo #14 - mt fuji & lake kawaguchiko

finally, getting up close & personal with the majestic fuji!

at this point i've already given up on blue sky.

grey sky is more dramatic anyways :P

snow-capped mountain

misty view from a viewing platform

we only managed to get to the 4th station, as the road to 5th station (the highest point that you can get to with a vehicle, i think) was closed.

muka give up ramai tourist cina tolak menolak hmph

ini pun nak jual ke beb, kapitalis betul

our group. takeover jadi co-driver sebab co-driver yg asal dah penat haha

tokyo #13 - shibazakura festival

it has been months since my last entry -.-"
there's no excuse. i have been lazy.
since last update, i went to perth and chiang mai.
and i have yet to finish tokyo and maldives entries.
in 2 months time, i'm off to kashmir.
T.T
so many updates pending!

anyway..
the day has come when we finally get to see mt fuji up close and personal!

but first stop: the fuji shibazakura festival.

the roller coaster at fuji q highland, which we passed en route. so tempting!
i would've included this in my itinerary if i went there alone

some flowers up for sale at the festival. they're said to be really cheap too, unfortunately i cannot smuggle a potted vase in my luggage..

sakura jam! i still have them in my fridge -.-"

mt fuji behind clouds

600 yen. i love japan and their inexpensive attraction fees
