Golden Week

Most days were like this. Not that I planned for it. The idea was to work most of the time. Including that last week. I did not know about Golden Week. Not until after I confirmed I was coming to Japan. As it turns out pretty much everyone in Japan is on vacation during that time. And Tokyo is quiet. Somewhat. It was a good opportunity to see more. Hakone, Kamakura, Yokohama, and the place with the lake. The lake is reportedly the newest lake in Japan. It was created due to an earthquake in the twenties. Not all destruction.
