We were excited to spend the kids’ spring break in Japan in Hakone and Tokyo. As soon as we arrived in Tokyo, we picked up our rental car and drove south to Hakone, a mountain town known for its hot springs (onsen) and epic Mt. Fuji views across Lake Ashi. On our first full day in Hakone, we walked along the lake shore to Hakone’s famous red torii gate and visited Mishima Skywalk as well as the Open Air Museum!
