Sharrie Says: & what a pleasure to see young kids embarking on the trips of their lifetimes!The most interesting encounters I've on most trips usually come from observing children. They are an intuitive & innocent bunch. They have yet learned what being on the defensive means & I probably...
Sharrie Says: I didn't say that! Atsuko told me that's what Dimitris say. Frankly I don't know much about plants. But this one it seems traps insects within its bud.It's really wonderful to go out with people from different culture & background. One learns a great deal & that makes life...
Sharrie Says: A tree shaped like the octopus at its roots area. Very unusual, very unexpected.Or is it human nature to see what we wish to see?!Have you ever take time to look at the sky & the clouds? I love doing that especially in the confinement of the plane. It's like a dream......
Sharrie Says: Here in the mountain, I was surprised to see shades of pastel colors. It evoked a very nice & hopeful feelings somewhat.
Sharrie Says: Japan is quite a varied society; one can find lots of different types of sceneries & things in a small tiny country in terms of size. Yet, nothing is ever quite "wild" here. Even flowers or mountains in their natural state seem like they have been shaped by human hands.For...

salisbury3933 Says: From the entrance to Takao-san, the chair lift(or cable car) will take you a lot of the way to the top, although not all the way.It's quite a long journey, and the scenery is nice. Once you have reached the top, it's about 40 minutes on foot to the summit.900 yen return.
salisbury3933 Says: The entrance to Takao-san is easily reached on the Keio line.We used the JR Chuo line as far as Takao, and then transferred to the Keio line which goes one stop to Takao-san guchi, from where you can walk all the way up the mountain, or get a cable car or lift part of the...
jenfriend Says: From JR Tokyo station takes the Chuo Line to Takao Station and it's about 1 hours 10 mins time.
lourdesmaria Says: Stroll around the town and study the old style houses and public buildings such as the post office. There is a small town charm and intimacy that will make Japan seem less foreign and more immediately accessible. See my Travelogue for sketches of local buildings.

This was my first time in this part of Tokyo. It is like a smaller version of Shinjuku, but a tad more laid back. Although it is becoming internationalized, I liked the fact that there are still few...
