Hakone

We were supposed to see Mt Fuji in Hakone but it was raining pretty bad all the time there!
So instead we went to the Onsen, the Tenzan Tohji-kyô. There are thousands of hot springs in Japan. The onsens are public bath which uses hot spring to heat up the water. Some can be really hot! There are onsens for men, other for women, very few for both.
We had to go there, take a shower on a small stool between naked japanese guys and then you go in the different hot spring baths, each with its specific temperature. from freezing cold, to upper mega hot 
You just have a small "cache-bite" and that's all! freestyle! Anyway it was very relaxing!! and all that in the middle of nature! It was worth it!
Sorry for the fans, but we couldn't take pictures inside the onsen ^^
