to Lake Kawaguchiko

Yesterday, as soon as I finished my breakfast,
I hurried to a nearby station.

I went to Lake Kawaguchiko, changing cars
at Seibu Line, Chuo Line and Fujikyu Line.

Oh, what a beautiful day! How I wanted to see Mt. Fuji!.
I was sure Mt. Fuji could be seen in Kawaguchiko.

I left my apartment at half past eight and arrived
at Kawaguchiko Station at half past eleven---
it took me three hours to go to Kawaguchiko!

I first took the Kachi-Kachi Ropeway and went up
to Mt. Tenjo.







To my surprise, an Australian lady came to me
and kindly said to me, "Shall I take a picture of you?"
I said, "Oh, thank you so much!"

What a kind lady!



Looking at beautiful Mt. Fuji, I had onigiri for lunch,
which I had bought at a convenience store.

Then I walked around the shore of Lake Kawaguchiko.







I crossed Kawaguchiko-Ohashi Bridge and enjoyed walking
to Fuji Lake Hotel which is one of my favorite hotels.

I had a tea break at a cocktail lounge at my favorite hotel.



I returned to Tokyo by express bus for Shinjuku.

I had a very nice day.

I walked 18120 steps in a day.
