We took a bus to Hakone and hung out in a spa the likes of which I have only seen in movies. The natural hot springs steamed and we sat in rock tubs with views of green mountains and misty skies. mothers took their children from one tub to another, and grandmothers came along, too. Some people had massages, and everyone generally relaxed and enjoyed one an other's company.
We had a wonderful dinner and we are all looking forward to coming home. If you are reading this and you are able to let me know that you read the blog at all, it would be helpful us to know whether it worked as intended (keeping friends/family in touch). Please just send a comment saying "I read it" if you have not commented yet?

ReplyDeleteHi Emily,
ReplyDeleteYour blog was great! Stephen is still in Japan with our son, Anthony; who tweets on twitter! OMG! It's wonderful you were able to find the time to keep the families, like me, informed and entertained with the daily trips, antics, fun, and overall great time you all had. I'll get pics on line for you as soon as everyone gets home and settled. Have a great school year and thanks again. Camille
