    Bravo!! Your opening drone shot was epic!! I've been watching your videos from when you were filming with a camcorder. It's so inspirational and encouraging to see you master the art of content creation. I really enjoy watching the adventures of your family too😊 Keep up the great work my brother! Aloha from Yokohama🤙

    Children's loud and cheerful shouts of "Natsuyasumi! Natsuyasumi!" Even us, the viewers, are happy and happy. However, there are many accidents involving children during summer vacation in Japan. Especially water accidents and fire accidents caused by outdoor camping etc. Anyway, please be careful about accidents and pay close attention.
    子供達の「Natsuyasumi!Natsuyasumi!」の大きく元気な掛け声。見ている視聴者の私達まで嬉しく楽しくなる。とは言え、日本の夏休みは非常に子供達の事故が多くなります。特に水の事故やアウトドアキャンプ等に因る火の事故。とにかく事故には気を付けて、細心の注意をお願いします。

    I have always wondered, why do they still wear masks in Japan? I thought they only did it when they were sick-ish or coughing a lot? And is airconditioning not a “normal” thing in restaurants??? Loved the video as always! Looks like an amazing kick-off for their summer break! 👏🏻

    • @LIJ
      @LIJ  Před 11 měsíci +2

      Masks are a cultural thing here, even before COVID, and so many Japanese like to use them, even when not sick. And a lot of places have air conditioning, just in parks usually you find food trucks and not restaurants with air.

    • @nmk1515
      @nmk1515 Před 11 měsíci +7

      Japanese here. What Life In Japan-San says is true but at the same time Japanese people, mostly kids, don't want to take off masks because they've grown up with wearing masks all the time last 3 years. It became kinda normal for them. Also, some kids say they don't wanna take off masks because they have no confidence about their face. It's kinda sad and means they're living under the lookism🥲

      I personally don’t but I don’t have anything really tall. But all the stores sell earthquake prevention things like these special tension rods for on top of tall shelves so they don’t fall, or things to secure TVs , all “assemble yourself” furniture come with hooks to stick to the wall so they don’t fall. So Japan is prepared!

    • @gerriebell2128
      @gerriebell2128 Před 11 měsíci +8

      A little summer homework is NOT a bad thing, because it helps them retain their skills and not forget what they learned. I am a retired teacher, and have seen the problem of kids forgetting too much over the summer. The “skill retention” in reading, writing, and math is especially important for little kids, and math skills at any age.

    • @emmib1388
