Japan Day 5


It’s Day 5 and we have arrived at Fujikawaguchiko, a resort town near the foot of Mount Fuji, after a 2-hour bus ride. I’m so glad it’s not as hot and humid here, compared to Tokyo.

#SundayStills: Too Soon for #Autumn


Nooooo… it’s too soon for autumn, despite autumn being one of my favorite seasons (aside from spring), where I am – in northern Utah – summer is still very much alive with 90+ degrees temperatures and no sign of autumn is approaching but who knows, these things can come with a snap of a finger. Not my fingers, Mother Nature’s.
