Long Sunday Walk

It is a beautiful day outside today! It has been very cloudy and rainy over the past few days and then last night it was extremely windy all night. So the result of that combination is that the rain and clouds formed a new layer of thick snow on Mt. Fuji and then the wind blew away all of the clouds so we can see it. Kelly went to go do some strawberry picking with the girls today so I took Caspian for a walk to enjoy the nice weather. We ended up taking a longer walk than I think I've ever taken with him. Maybe the longest he's ever taken. We walked down the usual path and then kept going and went along a trail that goes next to Fuji River (or at least what I think is Fuji River, known as Fuji-kawa.) I didn't have the good camera but I took some pictures of some of the cool shots with my iPhone. Here are my favorites:

I hate that I got my fingertip in this one, but I like the picture anyway.


Here is a shot of the same thing but different angle. Lots of snow on Fuji san.


River, factory, mountain.


Lots of blue...


Caspian wouldn't pose, but I wanted to put one of him on the walk anyway so Kelly would believe I took him. :)


The river


Three things Fuji has a lot of: paper mills, Pachinko parlors, and Mt. Fuji.
