Hakone - Day 2

Day two and clouds everywhere however, there's still plenty to see even when the weather isn't great.









We took a cable car to the top of a nearby peak which, under the right conditions, would have offered stunning views. We knew it was cloudy but figured we'd head up anyway since we'd come all the way there.




It made for some interesting photos but we could barely see our hands in front of our faces, never mind anything else...




It was also very cold. We had not been prepared for that and it took Mia a while to recover!


Descending back through the layer of cloud was quite magical though.












We did a lot more walking and took the "scenic route" back to the station. Google maps assured me there was a path, there was not. We may have had to climb a few fences to get back onto a legitimate road. It was still better than turning around and going all the way back.
