Journey to the East (2) - Music Box Art Museum and Titles

I wanted to go for a run in Japan. Lake Kawaguchi was right outside the hotel window. I looked at the map and found that it would be close to 20 kilometers if I were to circle the entire lake. Fortunately, a small half of the lake spans a bridge. It’s about four kilometers back from the bridge, which is more appropriate. The weather is not completely clear, but Mount Fuji is still fully displayed. It’s just that it is summer. There is no cone-shaped white snow on the top of the mountain, so it doesn’t look so three-dimensional. The air permeability is not good, it is just a big gray-blue triangle. . It is said that Mount Fuji is difficult to see in summer, and it is not easy to be able to do so. Lu Dou said that this was all due to his chanting a mantra.

 

The lake in front of us is called Lake Kawaguchi. It is the largest of the five lakes under Mount Fuji. It is an excellent location to view Mount Fuji and is also the place with the most tourists. The lake surface is calm and the scenery is pleasant. There are some big duck cruise ships in the bay of the lake. There are also old people fishing, and battery boats are slowly passing by from time to time. Some lingering clouds are floating in the mountain col, and the air is extremely fresh. It is very comfortable to run on the trail by the lake.

 

The four kilometers ended quickly. We returned to the hotel to soak in the hot springs for a while, and then went to the restaurant to have a buffet breakfast. The blue sky spread out in front of our eyes, and Mount Fuji showed its most beautiful side. We sat by the window and could see white clouds drifting across the mountainside. I'm so lucky to have a panoramic view of Lake Kawaguchi. I'm lucky.

 

In addition to simply looking at the mountains and lakes, there are also many art museums around the lake that you can visit. Mr. Lu Dou knows me very well and chose a music box art museum to take us to. Miao Dabao and Ayaka put on their clothes when we entered. Wearing princess clothes, blending into a painting-like art gallery.

This is a music-themed art park. There are various music-related sculptures, musical instrument houses, musical fountains, and what is said to be the world’s largest pipe organ. There are performances every hour. Let’s go see it. During the performance, the piano was very loud and the sound was so loud that it made my deaf ears buzz.

 

There is a music box exhibition hall in the art museum, which displays various music boxes, large and small. The largest is a floor-standing wall clock, which can play a piece of music for several minutes, while the smaller one can only play a few syllables. I saw a long golden music box, playing Castle in the Sky, 90 seconds. This is my favorite piece of music. I have collected scores of playing Castle in the Sky for dozens of instruments. I have time to prepare one kind of practice, but I can't afford the box in front of me, 64800 yen, which is more than 4000 RMB.

 

We walked out of the back door of the art museum and walked to the lake. The clouds gradually thickened, and Mount Fuji became distant and blurry again. It was already afternoon, and we needed to go back. Lu Dou booked a beef barbecue restaurant in Hamamatsu. As for the buffet, we were both looking forward to getting drunk.

 

This is a barbecue restaurant called Ushikaku Onzai. You can order or order food. Putai means unlimited in Japanese. Food means eating as much as you want. Drinking means drinking as much as you want. How much does it cost per person? , and then let go. As long as you can throw it in, Lu Dou and I are both fat people, so we must eat back the special points. As a result, I still overestimated my ability. I am far inferior to him in eating. After about three After serving the beef, I was defeated and had to use kimchi to weigh it down.

 

Later, I felt that I was at a disadvantage because I drank too much beer, which took up space and was very uneconomical. He always drank sake in small sips, which naturally took advantage of me. I must adjust my tactics when answering questions in the future and pick up the most expensive ones. Beer is nothing. Lu Dou said that the sake in the restaurant was not good. He collected high-end sake, and we continued to drink it when we went home. Later, we returned to his house, dug out all the dishes in his house, and drank all the most expensive ones in his collection. Sake, not only was he not angry, he looked quite happy.
