My last day in Japan was spent going to Hakone, with Akemi and Kengo. It was great, and included a visit to Ashi lake, a trip up to Owakudani, where eggs are being boiled in the smelly vents (H2S) and a soak in the hot baths, which was really great at the end of the day. Thanks, A & K, for a great day!
