Greetings from Tokyo

Blogging in Japan didn't work out as planned. I was going to write a post when I was in Osaka but internet wasn't free there so I read a few books instead. The Royal Household returned to Tokyo on Monday night, and at this point I think I will save the blogging until I'm back in Australia.

Yesterday we went to Hakone, a town 85km away from Tokyo. It's known for its beautiful scenery and view of Mount Fuji. The weather was a bit hazy so for most of the day Mount Fuji was hidden from our view, but at the last minute it made an appearance!


The Duke had fun playing with the settings on the camera and took this photo of yours truly and TLP looking out the gondola.


It has been a great trip - and you'll hear all about it sometime next week :-D
