Mount Fuji

The iconic Mount Fuji is what you can see in pretty much any Japanese travel add and brochures. For the first time during my stay in Japan took a car and drove out there and stayed over night y Lake Yamanaka. Was amazing to see the 3700 meter top from room window and have it as view when sitting in a natural hot spring. We also drove up to the 2400 meter 5th station where the temperature went down to -11 degrees. Now I been as close to the top as can be. Bucket-list for 2019 starting already.


First day when we arrived was a it cloudy and could not see the top...Our wishes were heard because we had some true blue clarity the following day
Waking up and having this view from our hotel

Just below Fuji there is a very nice hot springs bath with this majestic view! 
Fuji looks better from far away than when climbing up
