Most of the tour rained throughout and made visibility on the rides zero percent because of the fog. We enjoyed chatting with everyone though and made the best of it. Only a handful of us braved the typhoon weather to make a trek in Owaku-duni Hot Springs, or Valley of Great Boiling. The springs are a natural occurence from a collapsed volcano 3 to 4,000 years ago and made up all the springs in the town of Hakone. Many corporations including Nissan and IBM kept summer homes here.
