• Aburatsubo arrival.
  On arriving early morning in Aburatsubo we passed a local fisherman.
• Sea of Green
  We sailed past a sea of green
• Sea Eagles
  While sea eagles circled overhead marking our destination, we sailed straight past.
• This was not our destination mooring.
• Destination harbour
  Our destination was somewhere over here.
• Mount Fuji
  I took this photo later when Mount Fuji was making a rare appearance.
• Fisherman Guide
  So we managed to communicate to the fisherman where we wanted to go and he gave us a tow.
• Invisible Mount Fuji
  Note - Mount Fuji as on most days is invisible in the haze.
• Buoys
  There are in fact guides.

  As we approached the harbour began to open out into view
• Aburatsubo Harbour & Marina
  The marina came into view. We had reached our destination.
• $1,000,000 moorings ...
  Not unheard of.

  Safe at our mooring, and made totally welcome, our Fisherman guide departed.

  Almost completely invisible, this shows the entrance from the harbour side.

  The dwellings previously marking the entrance are on the right.
