52 Fujis # 6 - Fujiidera

(Originally visited 3 weeks ago)

Fujiidera was an adventure getting to, and I had the best thing on Mos Bugrer’s menu - a spicy chili dog. Oh yes.

Then it went downhill.

Or rather, uphill, as I went exploring the map I had on my trusty GP2X. There was a weird big hole on the map, so I went to have a look-see. It was a lake, and it would turn out to be the only photo I got that day. Here it is -

After taking this rather dull snap, I felt very much in the adventuring spirit, and continued to explore by trying a different way back to the station. Somewhere in the burbs, I took a wrong turn, and got lost. Very. Very. Lost.

Normally, I quite enjoy a bit of random getting lost-ness. Especially when it works out OK in the end, as today’s did.

Thing is, I never got to see anything else of Fujiidera, ending up, as I did, at a station twice removed from it. With absolutely no clue of how I got there, or why the girl with the improbably thin legs and ludicrous shoes who had been on the train to Fujiidera from Osaka, suddenly made a special guest appearance coming out of a house a few blocks close to my final destination.

Weird coincidences do not, however, a cool 52 Fujis entry make.

Shame that.

Cos that’s all that really happened in Fujiidera.
