Glimpses of Mt Fuji

January 2025

We didn’t see as much of it as we would have liked from Five Lakes, but we did have two more chances before we left Japan.

The first was a day later from Hokuriku Shinkansen (Tokyo to Nagano), which seems to be very unusual, and was also difficult to photograph:

The second was from the airbridge to our flight home from Haneda:
