Views of Mt Fuji

Leaving in a non-mountainous region, I'm fascinated by both volcanoes and mountains. Hiking Diamondhead (dormant volcano) in Hawaii was a definte high point to that trip (no pun intended) :)) Awesome friend's apartment had a great view of Mt. Fuji. I thought the travelogs were exaggerating when they touted that Mt Fuji dominated the skyline, was totally huge, and a intense part of Japanese art. Not at all. These are the two best shots of Mt. Fuji - one in the morning, and one at sunset. The tall thin tower might be a cell tower.




I also bought a souvenir with a painted Fuji on it... so I fell for the tourist kitsch! :)
