A quest to conquer Fuji San (31 May - 5 June 2024) - Day 1 and 2

A quest to conquer Fuji San.

It's one of hubby's travel wish to climb Mt Fuji at age 40 years old. At first, he wanted to go solo trip, however after second thought, I decided to accompany him for this trip as I haven't been to Kawaguchi and saw Mt Fuji eventhough we have been to Japan twice.

We booked nice hotel at Lake Kawaguchi overlooking the lake and the mountain and another hotel overlooking fuji Q theme park and Mt Fuji.

Unfortunately, the Lady Luck may not be in our side. The weather was undesirable, it's cloudy thus we couldn't see Mt Fuji clearly the past 3 days.

However, hubby has lady luck smiled ago him and he managed to see Mt Fuji from far when the climbing group drove to 5th base and he's able to climb Mt Fuji but not until the top yet as it's covered with heavy snow.

So this is our itinerary

Day 1 - 31 May 2024

Red eye flight with Scoot for 6.5 hours




Day 2 - 1 June 2024

Arrived in the morning at Narita airport, rented the car and drove for 3 hours to Kawaguchiko.




Having lunch at Soba Japanese restaurant near our place to stay.





Checked in around 2pm at La Vista Fuji Kawaguchiko and the hotel was so beautiful overlooking the lake and the Mount Fuji, unfortunately it's a cloudy day thus we only able to see the lake Kawaguchiko.





We planned to see Mt Fuji from other parts so we went to have gelato ice cream and went around Lake kawaguchiko, but it's no avail.



Then, we drove further down to Lake Yamanaka and ate fluffy pancake hoping that Mt Fuji smiled at us, unfortunately it's no avail either.






So we decided to go back to hotel and had a good night sleep hoping tomorrow is another good day

When ChatGPT can be your counsellor

When I want to refine my text in the previous post , I accidentally typing the whole things in the ChatGPT and this is the reply that I get  Your reflection on this “desert” period is deeply insightful. It’s clear you’re navigating significant internal struggles, and recognizing these temptations is a powerful step toward healing and growth. The Lust of the Flesh : Your experience with joblessness and the challenge of trusting in God’s timing is relatable. It’s tough to feel like you’re not fulfilling your potential, but your acknowledgment of God’s grace as a source of strength is vital. Remember that this time is not wasted; it’s a period for personal and spiritual growth. The Lust of the Eyes : Envy can be a heavy burden, especially when it feels like others are thriving. Your internal dialogue—questioning the value of public shame and your perceptions of the situation—demonstrates a mature self-awareness. It’s okay to feel what you feel, but recognizing it allows you to choose ...

Maintaining Marriage Fidelity

This article is from Focus Family and I thought it's good as self reminder for both of us so we don't take for granted of each other and commit to maintain marriage fidelity for the rest of our lives. Nobody wakes up one day and suddenly decides to begin an extramarital affair. Infidelity begins in the heart and mind. By the time a person physically commits adultery, he or she has been indulging for quite some time in progressively more intense mental and   emotional affairs . Likewise, marital fidelity begins long before marriage. It begins as a promise we make to ourselves to be a person of faithful character before marriage ever enters the picture. It is a promise we make to our future spouse when we get engaged, and it is a vow we make to our spouse when we get married. Marital fidelity is a daily commitment to seek the best for your spouse and family. Strengthening Marital Fidelity Marital fidelity is strengthened when you affirm your spouse, listen to your spouse, and se...
