On the 22nd of August 2018, Gert and I left Hong Kong heading to Tokyo to hike up the highest volcanic peak in Japan, Mount Fuji.
We got up at 5 am, were on the flight at 8h, landed in Tokyo at 1pm. After getting a car and having a quick lunch we made our way to the base. Succeeding a 9 hour hike, without any rest since we left Hong Kong, we saw the sunrise from a top Mt Fuji.
By noon we were back down at the car, hungry and exhausted.
We drove back to the airport, stopping every half hour for a 15 minute power nap, and to consume as much sugar as possible in an attempt to stay awake.
By 8pm we were on a flight heading back to Hong Kong, and just like that we had made the trip to Japan, summited Mt Fuji, and were back again in our beds in 2 days.
