Clear umbrellas, a girls childhood memory from the 70’s… and the popular accessory for all young Japanese in rainy season. Ian’s folding manly black umbrella malfunctioned today in the heavy rainfall of Hakone so Ian has joined the Japanese masses (and young girls of the UK) with his new purchase. At least it cheered him up as he had a right munk on because of the rain and a recommendation from a Fuji guide that we don’t attempt it tonight. Will check the rain forecast for tomorrow.
