Day 57 – Kawaguchiko to Takayama
Today we walked to the Kawaguchiko Bus Station and got on our bus to Takayama, which is around 220km away. The bus we got was amazing, with comfortable seats, power and Wi-Fi. The bus stopped several times at service centres along the highways. The views from the mountainous roads was spectacular. Once we arrived at […]

Day 56 – Kawaguchicko
Today we woke up in the shadow of the famous Mount Fuji (apparently). We had travelled to Kawaguchicko, as it has a Lake which is part of the Fuji 5 Lakes. They are called this, as they are wonderful viewing spots of the mountain (apparently). As the name suggests, our accommodation K’s House Fuji View […]

Day 55 – Nikko to Kawaguchiko
Today we checked out of our accommodation Sleping Nikko Inali. Before we left Nikko though, we decided to have a quick look at the temples we had missed yesterday, with our newly found tour guide friend, who was kind enough to say she will show us around and the super cool Canadian guy. We had […]

The Tobu station is a separate building around 100-200 meters away from the exit of the main Subway […]

Day 48 – Part 2 – Tokyo, JAPAN
As lightning pierced the night sky in the distance as the plane approached Japan we were expecting a rough landing in Tokyo. However as we got closer, all we could see were lights from the city which seemed to go one forever, regardless of the direction the plane turned. This is one massive city. We […]

Today we walked from 4J Lodge to the Grand Palace. Its something we wanted to do for a while, but due to the early closing time (3:30pm) we had been putting it off until we could dedicate a day to it. While walking there we met another local on the street who asked us where […]
