A quest to conquer Fuji San (31 May - 5 June 2024) - Day 5

Today we chase Fuji San.

After observing where the wind blows, we decided to follow the nature and where the clear sky was.

So we woke up around 4.30 and watched Mt Fuji in the clear view for a few seconds from our window.

Then we decided to go to west lake to catch the clear view of Mt Fuji.

Voila, during our journey, we were welcomed with the magnificent and majestic Mt Fuji in the clear view.








We were so amazed and decided to stop for a while at convenience shop to take picture with Mt Fuji background.

Then continue our journey to Lake Shoji on the west side. We still had a clear view for a few seconds before the clouds covering it again.

Not satisfied, we hunted again and decided to go to the South this time round which was the same place where hubby had toilet break before going to 5th station.

Unfortunately, the thick clouds were still covering it.


Last chance, we decided to go round and went to the South West area at Shiraito falls at Fujinomiya.





And we had last clear view of Mt Fuji for the day.

Satisfied through our hard works and feel rewarded with the magnificent view.

Then we went back to hotel, checked out and bought some fuji souvenirs and went to Tokyo - Asakusa to buy "fake food" key chain

Birthday Trip to Vietnam - Hanoi (Cafe hopping)

We spent our  last day in Hanoi  doing what we love most— café hopping ! The day started with a local breakfast of  Banh Cuon , a soft steamed rice roll filled with minced pork and mushrooms, quite similar to  chee cheong fun  but with its own Vietnamese twist. Light yet flavorful—perfect to kick off the morning. Next, we visited  Café Giang , the birthplace of the famous  egg coffee . Rich, creamy, and unlike any coffee we've had before—it’s a must-try when in Hanoi. Our last café stop was  The Note Coffee , a cozy and cheerful little spot decorated from floor to ceiling with colorful  sticky notes  left by visitors from all over the world. Their  iced coconut coffee  was refreshing and delicious—definitely a highlight. Since our hotel was located near  Train Street , we couldn’t resist visiting it multiple times— three to be exact!  We even had dinner there one evening, enjoying the thrill of the train zooming by ju...

As for me and my house will serve you Lord

Finally, I’ve joined the boys in serving at the Eucharist. It’s not my time, but His time. Two of the communion ministers were unable to serve on Sunday morning and requested to move to the Saturday sunset Mass. This left the group leader looking for replacements — and he thought of me, knowing that my hubby has been serving at Mass for 10 years. I said “yes” to the invitation, and so began my journey: the commissioning Mass on 3rd August, a Day of Recollection on 9th August, and my very first duty on 10th August. It is such a privilege to offer Jesus, in the Body of Christ, to His sheep. As I looked into the eyes of each parishioner receiving the Body of Christ, I saw so many different expressions. My prayer is that this gift of the Body of Christ will strengthen them in their journey, whatever season of life they are in.
