	Mt. Fuji Travelogue, Back to Japan for 4 days...
		The reason I was able to travel around southeast asia for a couple months was because I've been teaching English in Kofu, and saving money whenever possible...during those times when I wasn't skiing up in Nagano or Niigata, spending money on gas for the motorcycle, or pissing it away on alcohol.
		So I would return to Kofu for a few days to see all my old friends and catch up on my sleep before heading to the motherland for my buddy's wedding.
		I've known the guy since we were kids, and he asked me to be one of the groomsmen, so I took the opportunity to make another small vacation out of it.
