On to Hakone

Lots of time in busses and a bullet-train today, which was good since we woke to 45° and rain in Tokyo. It continued most of the day, till we got snow at Lake Ashi in the mountains. About 1″, which was gorgeous on the Cherry blossoms. Saw gorgeous pottery and screens from 11th – 17th century at Okada Museum (no photos, but you can see at Okada_Art) and then on to our hot spring resort hotel, complete with yukata to wear around the place. Their version of a hot tub is the Onsen, which is not co-ed and which does not allow swimwear. Just as hit though, and quite relaxing. Had a brief sushi making lesson, too.

  • I am starting to suspect you were Asian in a past life. You look so content in this part of the world. Continue to enjoy!
