Fuji Consolation Party

We had arranged a group venture (24 people) to climb Mount Fuji. We hired a bus and got all our supplies ready. However, on the day we were presented with a violent storm of hail, heavy rain, winds and lots and lots of lightning. In the end we decided to cancel at the price of our bus deposit. We discovered later that a resolute climber was actually killed by lighting that day so I guess we made the right decision.

As we could not even leave the youth heim, we decided to have another common room party. This time it started in the morning!


Juan breaks out the Shisha pipe for breakfast while I try to wake up in the background.


Brian pondering...


Tim listens intently...
Juan just can't keep himself to himself.


Brian displays the "Torment of Mankind" through the medium of himself.


Atsuko and Marco

Tim "Ayyyyyyy"
In parties in Japan, its never long before the costumes appear. Brian in his signature Nurse outfit.
This is me as a shadow

What can I say.....?

Marco as the evil shadow (not me!)
Hung-lun looking the part
I donned the kilt for the rest of the night ;)
Marek in his element!

Pikachu's career went downhill after the alcoholism took over...
