Once I was talking to my girlfriend about how much I love my little neigborhood, as we were walking through it. She kind of shrugged and commented on the ordinary-ness of it. Japan to me is full of places like this, nothing outstanding, until you get comfortable in them, like an old pair of jeans.
Fujimidai is like that. Before I went, I looked it up on Japaese wikipedia. For surrounding places of interest, a convenience store was listed. But once you get off the train and wander, there are many little shops to buy bento, sweets, ramen and other food that is being prepared right in front of you. The streets are narrow but not crowded.
There is a stream of announcements over the town PA system that talk about sales, new stores, etc. It's a little like a town radio station. That you have to listen to. But it's actually pleasant. And good listening practice.
Fujimidai's name uses the characters for Mt. Fuji, See, Place. I assume that means "Place you can see Mt Fuji from". I couldn't see Fujisan, but it looked slightly hilly. I would like to return and try and find the place where I can see the mountain.
