Shinkansen - Bullet Train in Action!

I caught a video clip of a train whizzing by the station while we waited for ours! Zoooooom!

Shinkansen- Bullet Train






After our tour of Mt. Fuji and Hakone we took the Shinkansen train home to Tokyo! These trains are fast! They go something like 200km/hr so it was only 40 min back to Tokyo. Weeee!

Stan - Portraits with Autumn Leaves






Here's Stan's photo shoot -- a bit goofier than mine, but some good shots still came out of it!

Jen - Photo Shoot with Autumn Leaves





This tree was beautiful so we snapped some portraits!

Plush Mt. Fuji!


It was so cute... I really wanted to buy one... but I resisted!

Mt. Fuji Visitor's Center





The clouds were kind of in the way at this point in the day but we still saw a nice view from the Mt. Fuji visitor's center.

Mt. Fuji Tour - Teacher/Guide



We learned many things from our tour guide. He taught us origami and how to use a hole in the ground style toilet. :)
