We started to climb the mountain at 14:10, still full of energy. We saw a notice board very near starting point, its English text looked a little bit sad. As we continued climbing, we saw lots of people climbing down who looked completely worn‐out and I couldn't say 'hello' to them (we have to greet people on the mountain). It was scary to think that we might feel like that tomorrow! The 6th station (2390m) was quite easy and quick to reach and staff from Mt Fuji Safty Guidance Centre were handing out notices and a simple map. There are no huts on the 6th station, and we didn't want to let our body cool down, so we continued climbing. It was 15:30 when we reached the first hut on the 7th station, called 'Hanagoya'. These are the stamps they burnt on our sticks.

Just before we reached the 7th station, we met a group of little kids. It was Nursery School graduation climb. They were so full of energy and it was nice to hear their school song. I found out that they climb Mt Fuji every year, of course to the summit, and even when the weather is awful, they climb to the summit! How amazing for 5 year old kids!
