Mt. Fuji Trip

Well its been a hectic week.  You can say I've been away from the keyboard (afk) because I have been site-seeing this past week.  I have left Tokyo a few times to explore the other parts of Japan.  On September 23, We headed off to climb Mt. Fuji 
From Japan
(on a tour bus).  We reached the 5/8 rest stations to the summit of Mt. Fuji (wiki link) and headed back down.   I sent a few post cards from there that was rubber stamped exclusively from Mt. Fuji.  
From Japan
We were the lucky ones on that day because most tour groups don't get to see Mt. Fuji summit because it is often covered with clouds (75% of visitors do not get to see the summit).  Special thanks to Mr. Take, our tour guide.  He made our tour memorable.
They say, "Only a fool would climb Mt. Fuji."
