Picnic to Mt.Fuji

When an unusual typhoon hit Japan in May, my friend and I reklessly headed toward Mt. Fuji area.

We took Gotemba line from Numadu to Gotemba.
The typhoon changed to tropical cyclone and passed Kanto area in the early morning.

In Gotemba, the moutain lifted the veil and said hello to us.

we got an useful information at a tourist counter at Gotemba station.
There is a public park named Jukuu-no-Mori (literally a forest in the air) with a garden, a restaurant, a theater and a nice view of the mountain.
