We arrived at Lake Kawaguchi at mid-day on Saturday. The weather was mostly clear and you could see most of Mount Fuji. After leaving our bags at the hotel we walked towards the lake.

The plan was to take Mt Fuji Panoramic Ropeway to get a better view of Fuji. When we arrived their was a long line for the ropeway. Both me and my wife lack patience so we backtracked to the docks where we had seen a sightseeing boat.

The boat cost 1,000 yen and took us out onto Lake Kawaguchi and gave us views of Mount Fuji, Lake Kawaguchi, Kawaguchiko Bridge, Rokkakudo, and the surrounding area.

The boat also had drums and costumes you could dress in for pictures. The costumes were mostly unused but the drummer taught me a little about playing
