Takao

Filed under: Danjuro, Hugabub, Trips — grace @ 11:46 am

We went to Takao for the morning. There were quite a lot of people going up the mountain so we went for a walk in the opposite direction which was nice as there was hardly anyone there. We had a packed lunch (curry sandwiches) and then walked from Takao-san Guchi station to Takao with Dan in the hugabub sling.

We went with Tomo’s family & friends to stay for a night in a ryokan in Hakone. Dan had great fun as there were 2 young girls in our group (Hana-chan and Mina-chan) and they loved playing with him.

Hakone

Filed under: Danjuro, Hugabub, Trips — grace @ 12:55 am

We went to stay for a few days in Hakone. Dan loved the onsen and playing on the car in the playroom. We stayed at Tsutsuji-sou which is a hotel owned by Shinjuku-ku and so slightly cheaper for us, they also do vegetarian meals which is good for me!
