11/10/06 National Park Hakone

On the Rio: Eric Clapton ~ Bell Bottom Blues

After Mt. Fuji we drove to National Park Hakone.

Autumn is in full force and the trees were almost at their peak.

We took this boat for a short ride on the lake.

The view was beatiful.

I met a really nice woman from Canada and she took this picture of me.

Here is a better shot of the boat behind me.

Our destination was to this cable car center.

Here is a view of the lake and cable car from the top of the mountain.

We reached the top of the mountain just in time to see the sun set behind the clouds.

And then turning towards the East, we saw the moon rising.

We returned to Tokyo by the bullet train.
