A little update
Long time no see.
The last weeks I was quite busy going to Toyko/Hikone/Osaka and finally climbing Mt Fuji.
Toyko/Hikone/Osaka and Mt. Fuji where quite wet, OK it's rainy season, but still soaking wet 3 weekends in a row is not funny anymore.
Had some great days with summerqueen in Tokyo/Hikone and Osaka with great Granrodeo concerts! To see them live again made my days and gave me some energy back.
Climbing Mt. Fuji was as hard as I had expected it. I climbed with my roommate and 2 of my co-workers. We used the Fujinomiya trail, which is sometimes really really steep. We tried our best, but only could make it to the 8th station, because the weather was so so nasty. It was raining, storming and cold. And many other people did the same as we did. Because even people who climbed Mt. Fuji before said that it would be useless to go further. My co-workers cousin climbed to the top that day, but also said he could see nothing but white clouds at the top.
But I want to climb Mt. Fuji one more time. Maybe another, easier trail, and maybe not at night what we did the last time.
It was a great experience that I don't want to miss, but the weather could have been better.
And hitting an Onsen-spa after climbing down was was really a good idea!
Here are some pictures:
