Here's a few photos I took on a trip to Japan years ago. We stayed at a hotsprings resort overlooking Mt. Fuji during the winter. There is also a tour bus that can take you up half way up the mountain. And, it is cold up there!
The other photos are of Ginza, Tokyo's shopping district. The lit up billboards and signs really bring the place to life. On the weekends, the parts of the streets are closed off to traffic so hundreds of people can walkabout to do their shopping.

What a stunning Mt Fuji photo! Excellent!
ReplyDeletekml, you are quick. I barely just put up this post. Thanks about the pic of Mt. Fuji. It was taken with my first digital camera back in 2002.
ReplyDeleteI would love to travel to Japan someday. Until I can see Mt. Fuji in person your picture will have to do. I love the night scenes, those are well done.
ReplyDeleteDigital Flower, Japan is a beautiful country. Be prepared to spend lots of money especially at a resort. In 2002, it was $8 US for a tiny glass of orange juice.
ReplyDeleteYou a world traveler who have been to Paris, Alaska and this time with Japan's pictures. Lovely post. Thank you for sharing your world traveling views with us.
ReplyDeleteI think you made some great photos for more than one reason, your memories and ABC Wednesday! Mt. Fuji looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for visiting Portland (OR) Daily Photo's J for Joy.
Great pics, AV, I hope I can travel to Japan some day...I haven't been outside of the US too much, except for a cruise I went on in high school where we visited Costa Mia and Cozumel. However, I do know a few Japanese words like:
ReplyDeleteOhayo- good morning
Janet- good bye
Arigato- thank you
-that's about the extent of my Japanese language knowledge..class dismissed :D
Excellent choice for "J"!
Hin man, Now that you brought it up, I guess I have traveled around. Compared to other family members, I really haven't gone to too many places.
ReplyDeleteHi Lynette, Thanks for dropping by. I've been to Portland once and it was a lovely place with all those waterfalls.
ReplyDeleteHi Scott, Thanks for the Japanese lesson and the comments. Now, I know how to say 'good-bye'. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the picture of Mt Fuji... Stunning scenery.
ReplyDeleteLove the photos, mount fuji looks like a great photo opportunity, by the way peter here from the UK. Love the street scenes, very lively
ReplyDeleteThat is a great picture!!! I want to go there someday...
ReplyDeleteLovely shots. Must go to Japan one day ...
ReplyDeleteThanks Mike. Appreciate your comments.
ReplyDeleteHi Peter, I've never been to the UK. Hopefully, I can make it out there one of these days.
ReplyDeleteDana/David, you have to go there at least once. Skip the big city and go the suburbs so you can see the temples.
ReplyDeleteWE have never been to Japan, but we always have japanese motorbikes.
