Today's Trip to Mt. Tsukuba













Today we took a short trip up to Mt. Tsukuba in Ibaraki Prefecture. This is one of the few mountains in Japan that is actually not a volcano. The whole mountain is made of a very hard granite. During the fall is the peak season when everyone heads up to see the fall colors. On a clear night you can go up Mt. Tsukuba and look all the way down to Tokyo.

We took a gondola up to the peak and I actually remembered to bring my binoculars. If there were a little less clouds I think I might have been able to find our Tech Center in Tsukuba Mirai City.
