Entry from: Hakone, Japan Entry Title: "Mt. Fuji and Hakone" Entry: "No trip to Japan would be complete without seeing Mt. Fuji. It's the largest mountain in Japan. It's a pretty neat sight but without doing an activity on it - like climbing it - it's just a nice mountain to look at. Big deal. The next time we're here we're going to conquer Mt. Fuji - seriously! Next, we headed to Hanoke Hot Springs. We headed up to this hot springs via cable car and were able to see the lake in the background and the active volcano that we would be on top of. We arrived at the top and saw smoke spewing everywhere. We ran up the mountain to this station where they were serving Black hard boiled eggs. Apparently, this is their claim to fame. The eggs are hard boiled in the hot springs surrounding the mountain. The volcano heats these hot springs up to ridiculous temperatures like 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Each egg you eat is said to prolong your life by 7 years. The superstition goes that if you eat four you die. I ate six and then died. I had to put it to the test and those Japanese superstitions are extremely accurate. Surprisingly, I thought the eggs tasted better than normal hard boiled eggs. I'm telling you the Japanese really know how to make great food even if it takes a hot springs to do it." Read and see more at ...
