I wanted to give my parents a break, so on 9/1/00, I "allowed" them to take on my first trip, which was to Hakone near Mt. Fuji. We stayed at the old historical Fujiya Hotel which was a little spooky, but with impeccable service. Me and my chauffer. The base of the columns in the main dining room. The owner staring at the staffs, they say. Mom and I discuss what to do with Dad as we stroll the garden. |
