Day 3 - Hamamatsu-Hakone-Mt. Fuji

On day 3, the tour guide decided to take us for a ride in the bullet train from Toyohashi to Hamamatsu. While in the bullet train I was comparing it with our Malaysian KTM. In Japan, people don't PUSH to get into the train because there are PLENTY of seats in each carriage and even if there isn't any seat, they would still line up to get in. Felt that Malaysians are pretty much uncivilised compared to them. Other than that, all their doors connecting each carriage were automatic. Is ours automatic? or just spoilt? I don't really remember. Plus, the bullet train always comes on time. Ours? DELAYED most of the time and it isn't well connected. How boring. I wonder when Malaysia would be as developed as theirs.

Anyway, we reached Hamamatsu in just a few minutes and took the bus to Owakudani Valley where we had to walk all the way up to eat...eggs. Yes, it's chicken eggs. The weather was super cold and the wind was blowing but we persevered just to eat the sulfur cooked eggs. It was the most delicious hard boiled egg I ever tasted in my life. haha. XD

After that, we moved on to yet another COLDER place which is Mt. Fuji. Most of the time tourists were only allowed to level 1-4 during winter because of the bad condition. We were however superbly blessed because the weather condition was good that day! We went all the way to the peak of the mountain. My hands were freezing and I felt numb. =.=

At night, we stayed at the Fuji Five Lake Are which is just right at the bottom. My room had a really nice view of the mountain in the morning. lol.
I wanted to try the Hot Spring bath but the idea of bathing with so many people stark naked kinda turned me off. :p
