Travel Blogs from Ito
My longest blog in ths trip so far
This is the longest blog so far in this trip, cause a lot of time spent on trains
Took JR, train and train again to get to Fuji train station, total of about 2 something hours.
I have to make a comment, the worst washroom I went to China was still better than the one in Fuji train station :(
I forgot to chk the weather for Fuji, the weather at the Mt is 10 degree lower than the station. It was cold in the station, probably mid teens ...
Trains, Cable Cars and Pirate Ships!
... Owakudani - which is also known as Greater Boiling Valley. It’s the crater of a volcano and as soon as you got off the cable car you could smell the sulphurous fumes - disgusting (well that’s what I think anyway - David seems to like the smell). We walked a little way from the cable car station to a small shop which sold Black Eggs - they are hard boiled eggs which have been boiled in the sulphurous hot pools and seemed to be regarded as quite a delicacy by ...
Tokyo to Izu Oshima
We left Ryokan Eishinkan about 7.30. The owner gave us breakfast and coffee to take away.We were dropped off at Takeshiba Pier and managed to sort out tickets to Oshima. East Coast Mainline couldn't have cost more! To add insult to injury we then had to pay an 2000 yen extra for oversize luggage!
Aboard the hydrofoil, we headed the 120 km across Tokyo bay to the island of Oshima. Why were we going? Well, Mihari-yama, ...
The Elusive Mt Fuji
We’ve had quite a lazy day today (for once). First we took the train from Kyoto to Odawara (going east) - with the obligatory box of sushi for lunch on the train. Just before Odawara we got a glimpse of what we think was Mount Fuji - but it was only momentary! Then we got two local trains - each one climbing higher up into the mountains - the last one going up a series of switchbacks. We finally arrived at Myanoshita, a small ...
Japan moto trip (Izu Skyline)
Day 2: Izu Skyline
All I can say is, you MUST ride this, and any/everywhere on the Izu Peninsula at some point in your life. You must do this especially if you consider yourself a keen moto tourer. The scenery and corner carving cahoonery is OSM (panorama). OSM. Sometimes when you read moto magazines they talk about an ear to ear grin when riding a bike. I had one of these. A lot. It was OSM. I felt so ecstatic because here I was, a total newbie to ...
