Fuji-Q~Mount Fuji~

Dave and I woke up real early and made our way to the Tokyo station to collect our ticket package which includes a bus ride to the famous Fuji-Q.. We missed the earliest bus to Fuji Q,so we had to catch a later bus… What is Fuji-Q? Its one of the most popular theme parks in Japan with rides which are among the top in the world such as the fastest roller coaster going at 180km/hr, the highest roller coaster and the roller coaster with the most number of turns!PhotobucketPhotobucket
Behind me is the one of the world’s highest roller coaster. It was rated the highest in 2003, but I’m not sure if the record still holds..

The Fuji Q would be my top recommendations for you to see the Mount Fuji and spend an entire day having fun, provided you have a heart daring enough to take on the rides.. PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket 
This is the fastest roller coaster in the world.. It shoots up to 180km/hr! So fast that your hair ends in a mess when the ride ends..

Our home made pack lunch of Japanese curry and Japanese Onigiri.. Its a little pathetic, but it filled out stomach nonetheless.. :)
