Day Five - Japan / Hong Kong

Tonight, we stayed at the Royal Hotel Kawaguchiko, which had its own hot spa and was only 10 steps from Kawaguchi-ko Lake.

At the Royal Hotel Kawaguchiko, we had a breakfast of fish cake, salted fish and egg with congee, miso soup, and daikon (white radish) with pork in an oden.

We slept in a traditional Japanese bedroom with Tatami mats and futons.

Mum and I dressed up in the Yukata robes the Hotel had provided.

Dinner of smoked whitefish, pickled shallot, tempura and a donabe of octopus and vegies.

The hotel was walking distance to Mt Fuji!

This is the Peace Park at Gotemba. Also known as the Scent of Natural Civilisation garden.

A lovely Japanese garden inside the Gotemba Peace Park.

At lunch, we were taken to a random restaurant. We were served tempura with...

Udon

The rest of the day was spent at the Yunessun hot springs spa resort which is located in Hakone. Too bad I couldn't take photos inside...

And to end the day, I had the green tea soft cream, and Mum had the mango flavour. If only McDonalds had these flavours in its soft-serve cones.
