Today we played tourist and rode on a tour bus with 50 other tourists to Mount Fuji and Hakone. The fog was covering Mount Fuji for most of our time at Mount Fuji, but it cleared as we were leaving, and we got to see it. While we were waiting for the fog to clear, we learned all about the volcanic eruptions that formed the mountain, and we got to see the fossils found there throughout time. Our tour included a traditional Japanese meal that was very kawaii. Hakone was a mojor part of the tour. It was beautiful, even though we couldn't see Mount Fuji anymore. Our tour guide kept telling us to imagine by looking at pictures! We rode on a giant peoplemover to the top of one of the neighboring mountains, and we saw a temple. After the death-defying peoplemover trip was over, we took a boat ride around the lake in Hakone. Next time to Japan will definitely include a couple nights in Hakone's hotsprings!
Later that night, we went to Akihabara and found "Super Potato," a Nintendo archivist's superstore. Dreams came true and a new, boxed famicom joined the family.
