富士山


The weather has been spectacular here recently. So spectacular that you could see Mt. Fuji from my apartment. Typically the sky is not clear enough to see Mt. Fuji but this past week has been the longest stretch of great weather since I've arrived. I managed to get some great pictures. Here's one at dusk with the twilight behind Mt. Fuji. Unfortunately it is not quite as impressive in a picture, but it really is cool to watch Mt. Fuji rise up behind the cityscape towering over everything around it. Mt. Fuji is about 3700 meters tall (12,000 feet), and is approximately 60 miles west of Central Tokyo.
