Day 4 Hakone Kowakien

We ate eggs in Kowakien and we are not hungry now. I told my mother we can visit Lake Ashi by pirate (ship), she thinks it is interesting! Let’s go!

Lake Ashi is very well-known for its nice scenery, but I think Thousand Island in Canada is more beautiful.

We enjoy the scenery as well as the sweet potatoes!

We alight at Motohakone and visit the temple.

We’ve been walking for more than 10 minutes and the place looks scary. It is just like the comic(Doraemon) that Nobita and Gian are playing on the mountain and they see the scary white light! We want to return…wait! It is not ghost, it is the incense sticks only!

I think it is nice to see the old trees here, you will feel comfortable.

The last bus today will arrive at 5pm, if we have the belated lunch now we will probably miss the bus! Therefore, we simply eat the buckwheat noodle quickly near the bus stop (the noodle place is recommended by the travel book and it is good!).

Yumoto is countryside and it is not same as Shinjuku or Ikeburno, so I think it is more difficult for us to find the way here. We’ve walked for more than 10 minutes and I keep reading the travel book to find the way…oh, I found that it is the place we have passed this morning, I don’t need the travel book now

I like buckwheat noodle very much, so I choose the cold noodle to taste its real taste. I think that cold noodle in Hong Kong is too cold and too hard, as it is kept in fridge for long time. However, noodle here is yummy, thanks for the recommendation!

They prefer hot food, it is nice too.

The sakura tree has both baby pink and shocking pink!
