Representatives of 5 nations gathered Sunday to climb a mountain (the Japanese term for "hiking" translates directly to "mountain climbing") and drink beer, all in the name of world peace. After a day of climbing we all hopped on a train and then another train and then another train and then walked alot all in the name of eating little sparrows and other Guri-like creatures. Thanks to Nobu-san for that.
The climb itself went without major incident, despite the fact that the guide was drunk and lost. Dr. JJ had a minor knee injury, which seemed to get much better when the beer appeared later. Of course it could have been the power of Kumiko's magic massage.
I didn't get a chance to add any captions to the photos, and I was too lazy to put them in any particular order... Live with it.
