One last stop before ending this vacation. David insisted that we visit the Hakone Open-Air Museum, a famous outdoor sculpture park in the mountains near Tokyo. Hakone is the typical resort/hot springs that people from the cities like to visit. They usually have enough time for a long weekend trip so places like this appeal to that need.
While I was starting to get bored of museums, Mr. McDowell had chosen quite wisely. Wow, what a cool place! The biggest draw was a tower of stained glass. We were already high up in the mountains so this made for an amazing view.
Returning to the hostel, I caught a glimpse of one of the local monkeys. David asked, “Did you hear something?”
