Fuji San

Once we checked into the Hotel Konanso in Kawaguchiko the first thing on our minds was getting into our private hot spring bath and relaxing after the long journey we had from Shinjuku.

 

However the second we put our bags down we heard a knock on the door, confused and puzzled about who it might of been I opened the door to see a small old woman looking up at me. “Do you speak Japanese?” she asked in a confident voice, “Yes” I replied in an equally confident tone and she asked us to follow her, we dropped everything and left the room.

 

She was holding the lift door open and waving us toward her Amy was taking a while so I shouted Chotto Matte Kudasai! which means Please wait a moment before joining her in the lift. She led us up to the roof where we was greeted by Mount Fuji. I’m glad I took my camera with me because this was such a breathtaking sight! The old woman (who turned out to be the owner of the Hotel) asked us what time we would like dinner and then gently bowed leaving us to enjoy the views of Fuji San.
