3:55 AM - Mysterious Mountain - Rachel

OK, they told us there was this really big mountain around here somewhere but, at this time of year, at least, it is very elusive. Mount Fuji was invisible from Tokyo, fair enough, but it was still only visible as pretty much a shadow through the clouds, or rather haze, when we arrived in Kawaguchi-ko. This is the place to come for 'beautiful reflections of Fuji-San in the lake'. Hmmm. Well anyway, Steve and I waited on top of Mount Tenjo (a small nearby hill), while the sun went down, and the clouds did clear a little to improve our view. Then we had a beautiful evening walk down the hill, surrounded by hydrangias, ending in a lovely courtyard with dragon fountain.
