Woke at 6 am hoping to see the sunrise.
Hitoride.


Very dreamy and tranquil





Reaching the famous Tori gate




I tried to take selfie.. but difficult to run to the point in 10 secs.


A kind uncle took the photo for me.



Let's get up to the shrine

















Ducks swimming peacefully

Was there several years ago:

Misty and beautiful Lake Ashi in the morning











Heading back to the ryokan for breakfast with my family

Kaiseiki breakfast



Owarimasu


10am: Time to check out after breakfast and a quick bath

Poster of Owakudani: No plans to visit this time

Bye bye Musashiya
It was an enjoyable stay and very good experience for the people.



Got tickets for the Pirate ship.
Earliest ship at 1010am from Motohakone-ko to Togendai-ko, then to Hakonemachi-ko.
It takes about 25 mins each route, and cost 1,050 per pax for the round trip.

Yeah!! We got more sights of Mount Fuji

Taking tozan bus to Hakoneguchi from bus stop 1 or 2, whichever bus arrives first.
We are visiting Odawara castle next.




Bye bye Moto-Hakone.
Take a rest and view the beautiful scenery in the bus




Arrived! Walk about 6 mins to the castle park


The wisteria should be beautiful here when in season




















This castle is a museum itself























Took JR Tokaido from Odawara station to Shimbashi.

From Shimbashi, we were getting to our hotel in Odaiba.



Hotel Grand Nikko is connected by the bridge from Daiba station, just minutes walk away.
Check-in first to put away our bags, got a connecting twin room for 4.




Head straight to Aqua City for dinner





The kids found a anime shop!



Rest early to prepare for next adventure the next day.
