Trying One of the Most Beautiful Ferry Routes in Japan

I'm taking Surugawan Ferry from Shimizu to Toi. If you are lucky, you'll see a beautiful view of Mount Fuji.
This ferry is often cancelled. I really recommend you to have a plan B if you wish to take this ferry.

    Out of your most recent trips in that region, that was actually your best view of Mt. Fuji. I've noticed that your overnight ferry and train trips have become mo0re frequent but you haven't done a quirky hotel video in a while. Have you exhausted the options? As always a treat to watch and listen to. ASMR with subtitles.

The black curry had me intrigued and It was a shame we didn't get to experience it. I liked the idea of a package or bundled ticket for a day trip. Thank you.

    Yes! You were right, it is "one of the most beautiful ferry routes". The pollen couldn't hide the beauty and majesty of Mt. Fuji. She is stunning. My favorite part was the cafe at the top of the gondola ride. You chose a beautiful day. The black curry there appears to be a tourist attraction. Who can just have a "sip" of curry? Be safe until we travel again.

    The pollen haze gave Fuji-san a ghostly sort of demeanor on that day. I rather liked it! To me, it made the mountain seem even bigger because of the distorted atmospheric perspective making it look farther away than it actually was, while remaining the same imposing size.
