Mid-project Retreat

Hey, y'all! This Saturday and Sunday our whole team went on a retreat to Hakone, this awesome resort place. Saturday we got on the train from our station in Koenji and went a bit to somewhere else and got on this other train that took us a looooong way to another city place thing. (Yeah, I'm really tired now... it's 11pm and we just got back so I'm not at 100%.) So, anywho, we got on this cable car (which was actually this train car type thing that had a cable that pulled us up a mountain). What was really cool was when we met the car coming down. The track like split and our car went right and the other car passed on our left. After that we got on this real cable car that took us in a little car over top of the trees and stuff. When we got off, we got on another one that took us down the other side of the mountain to this little place where we got on a pirate/cruise ship. THAT was cool! It took us to the other side of the little lake there (we were in the middle of a bunch of mountains) to another little city place where we cruised around for a while by the lake. There was this big shrine there on top of a tall, tall big place (very stereotypical) that we checked out for a while (some friends took pictures) then came back down to the harbor. There were a bunch of pillar things down there so we took a group picture of some of us standing on them doing the Karate Kid crane move.
Then the bus came and took us to our hotel. That was cool too, as we each got our own room! I can't remember the last time I slept in my own room by myself!
The next day after then we hit up the local onsen (hot tub/spa) attraction, Yunneson, for the entire day! Apparently, this is the largest onsen resort in all of Japan! There were all kinds of different themed onsen that we tried out. Here's a list of all of em'!
Coffee
HOT
Red Wine
Green Tea
Charcaol
REALLY HOT
Some sort of flowery smelling bath
Curry
Honey
Um, yeah... a lot of those were weird but they were all fun.
Wow, It's getting later and some of the guys were going to watch a movie yet tonight so I think I'm just gonna' end this here. I'll write soon! Tomorrow is our free day.
