Cycling Around Mount Fuji

Note that this photo is a posed shot. You are supposed to cycling anti-clockwise around the lake! Haha If you are deciding between taking the train to Kawaguchiko or driving, you can check out the car rental prices at   https://www.nipponrentacar.co.jp/english/user-guide/reservations.html   and train prices at   http://www.hyperdia.com/ It depends on whether you’re staying overnight at Kawaguchiko and the number of people travelling. Remember to add toll fees of about ¥4200 one way. We decided to rent a car but forgot about the toll fees so it ended up being more expensive.

If there are two of you and you want more freedom to move around (such as going to neighbouring places like Oshino Hakkai, Chureito Pagoda, Yamanakako etc) it is also better to rent a car. You should also be warned that traffic is congested upon leaving and arriving at Tokyo. We parked our car at our ryokan Kozan

YAY! I win again!

She examined them both and could not find anything unusual. She assured us that they both look very well and healthy and there is no need for any further treatment. But Chris, the very observant one, noticed that West's appetite has decreased significantly. While he would usually get very excited and devour the fresh veggies we leave in their enclosure, he showed little interest in the cai xin we presented. So on Tuesday, Chris brought West down for an x-ray and it was discovered that he had gastro-intestinal stasis. There was blockage in his intestinal tract so he could not pass motion properly, hence the lack of interest in food as he must have felt very uncomfortable with the constipation. Chris took leave on Wed morning to observe West and continued administering the medication, hoping that it will clear his system. Last night while f
