Fuji Rock Over For Another Year

It's a few days since Fuji Rock at Naeba Ski Resort finished and Yuzawa is now pretty much back to normal after its yearly invasion by the masses. The weather tried to put a dampener on the festivities but the festival goers are a hardy bunch and a great time was head by all.

The festival organisers have a strong environmental focus which can be tough with tens of thousands gathering in the same place but it still remains one of the best music festivals set out in nature. Energy use is from self-generated sources, and even the paper rubbish is recycled for use during the next year's event.

Also, as one Brazilian tourist was overheard to remark, the Japanese people themselves contribute to making the festival a great success. Their friendliness, welcoming nature and consideration make Fuji Rock a great place for people of all ages to hang out and enjoy the music.

Good time this year and we're already counting the days until the next one.
