Reblogged from Athletics in Japan: Opening Series 2012:
As the team holds an afternoon workout at the Tokyo Dome, many A's front office and family members head outside Tokyo for a day trip to the south-eastern area of Hakone.
A ropeway travels up a mountain to get a better view.
The Cotroneos pose for a photo at the top of the mountain. The fog behind them is actually steam, a result of volcanic activity.
This makes me really jealous. Even though it sucks that the A's aren't here to start the season, this is still kind of cool and I wish I was a part of it.
