Hakone and Bullet Train

Well Mt Fuji was a no show today as we expected, but the day was still a great day. We went to Hakone and went to the museum there which has statues and is the area that has thermal springs,etc. So we all soaked our feet in the HOT springs and had a lot of fun doing it. These are our friends Brenda and Dick Tabor from Missouri who are with us. We ate our lunch at this museum which was a large buffet and was a nice place to eat. With the price of meals here, we were glad for an included meal in this optional tour. From the museum, we went to the bubbling sulfur smelling springs from the cauldron of the volcano eruption. They cook eggs in the water that turn brown and for every egg you eat, it is supposed to add 7 years to your life, but they didn't have any takers in our crowd.
