David was a great guide, cheerful, informative and funny.
The Shibazakura festival was amazing, flowers were very pretty, however clouds were in the way so didn't get a good view from this area of Mt Fuji.
The journey up to the 5th station provided spectacular views and eventually, the clouds parted for awhile so we were blessed with fantastic views of Mount Fuji.
The only downfall was the visit to the Lake, it was a bit cold and we looked around for a cafe/coffee shop, but could only buy ice creams. I'm gathering that it was too early in the season for the shops to be open, but we did enjoy the ice cream
