When I went out in the morning, it was still raining, so I decided to have breakfast at the station and wait until the rain stopped before going out.

GATEWAY FUJIYAMA in Kawaguchiko Station. The croquette in the shape of Mount Fuji has no taste. After ordering croquettes, I forgot that Japanese croquettes are actually potato pancakes, so I stupidly ordered potato wedges. The potato wedges were fried very well, but they were just too much potato and a bit boring.

Sitting in the station and looking outside, the weather forecast was quite accurate. The rain had really stopped, but the clouds were still so thick that they were about to fall to the ground.

The clouds began to disperse a little and came out. Take the shuttle bus to get off at the 11th sightseeing boat station and come to Tianshangshan Park .

You can take the cable car directly up the mountain. Of course, if you are in good physical condition, you can also choose to climb directly up the mountain. It takes about 45 minutes as shown in the picture.

The cable car entrance, the color is so beautiful!

To buy tickets for the cable car, you have to buy it at the automatic ticket vending machine. I didn’t know it at first and I followed the queue. I didn’t expect that this team was queuing up to take the cable car. I had to buy the ticket first. It was a bit confusing. The two teams were mixed together. I had to see which one was in line. Team.

There are so many people... The machine next to the stairs is the ticket vending machine.

The queue is finally outside, and the cable car is beautiful!

As soon as you get off the cable car, you can overlook Lake Kawaguchi.

Behind this heart should be Mount Fuji

The clouds were blocking me to death...

So I climbed up to the observation deck and looked at Lake Kawaguchi.

In fact, a cloud in the middle has dispersed, revealing the blue sky.

And over there at Mount Fuji...the clouds are thick!

I simply stood at the observatory and waited for the clouds to disperse. After a while, the clouds on Lake Kawaguchi had almost completely dispersed, and Lake Kawaguchi began to turn into a beautiful blue color!

This is my fourth time to see Mount Fuji and I can’t see it. Part 4 of the sweet relationship with Mount Fuji, the sky is blue on one side, and Mount Fuji is hiding behind the thickest cloud on the left. It couldn’t be funnier.

The clouds on the right have completely dispersed, but on the left

What kind of weird cloud is this? It is completely wrapped around Mount Fuji!

I kept standing here waiting for the clouds to disperse, and took a few time-lapse photos with my phone.

The only clouds in the sky were Mount Fuji, and the sun was shining directly without any obstruction. After being exposed to the direct sun for an hour, my camera felt like it was going to explode and my skin felt like it was going to be burnt, but the clouds finally dispersed completely! The sweet relationship with Mount Fuji is finally coming to an end hahahahaha!

Most of the head was exposed just now, but it was blocked again, but it was helpless...

At the same time, the sky is clear here at Lake Kawaguchi. The blue of the sky reflected in Lake Kawaguchi is as beautiful as a sapphire embedded in the mountains!

Take another close-up of Mount Fuji, only the head is still covered in clouds

Returning to the Xinxin place just now, I can finally see the mountains.

After a while, they almost all dispersed! Beautiful! Beautiful!

It’s completely sunny It’s hard to imagine that it’s still rainy when I go out in the morning, but it can be so sunny at noon!

Satisfied, I came to たぬき茶屋 to buy something to eat. In fact, the famous specialty here is this dumpling, but it looked so big and my stomach was still full of breakfast. I couldn't eat it at all, so I had to buy ice cream.

The ice cream cone is crisp enough but not too sweet, which is normal. The perfect angle for taking photos with Mount Fuji!

After eating the ice cream, I quickly took the cable car down the mountain to continue my originally planned trip. After waiting for so long, I was already delayed a lot.

It was a completely different scene than when we took the cable car up the mountain just now!

I really like the mountains with various colors and levels, they are really beautiful!

Wow, the team has already lined up outside...

Head to the next stop, Maple Leaf Fuji.
