Spending a glorious autumn around Japan's Mount Fuji

Last month, after a six-hour flight from Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam, our plane landed at Tokyo’s Narita Airport just after 7am. My family and I were there for a 12-day self-drive odyssey, and we were very excited.

Since it was already autumn, it was rather chilly that morning. The airport was crowded but there was enough helpful staff to guide visitors for swift immigration and customs clearance.
