There were low clouds and the threat of rain so we decided to visit the Gotemba Premium Outlets. This involved 2 buses to get there but the trip was through interesting scenery. The picture was not taken today because of the weather, but we did see Mt Fuji before clouds blocked it from view.
Anita indulged in shoe shopping and we had yet another Italian meal. Our return trip was via the scenic bus route then the historic train. The bus driver spoke constantly through a microphone, presumably describing where we were or where we would be going. Bus and train drivers speak out loud confirming they have done things like check each of their mirrors before driving away from the stop. For train drivers this is accompanied by a strict regime of hand signals.
We made the mistake of dining at our hotel. It was expensive but not very nice. The dining room lacked atmosphere and there were as many wait staff as there were diners. We are looking forward to better food options in Tokyo tomorrow.
