The view was, well, less than perfect when I finally made it up to the top of Mt. Fuji.
However, at every place we tried to enter, we were refused decidedly, even to go inside for just a drink and to warm ourselves from the cold rain and wind, unless we paid a considerable amount of money. We finally found shelter in some of the toilet blocks which allowed us some moments without the rain around our heads. Obviously, we were looked upon strangely by nightly Japanese hut guests who had to visit the toilet for other reasons, but we were only too happy with some hiding from the cold. When we finally found that the highest hut which was still open allowed us inside, we thankfully spent more than half an hour around the fire place, sipping a great corn soup.
