    I had to laugh at the corn snack finger hats. Those are called "Bugles" here in the US, and I haven't had them since I was a kid. But I remember eating them exactly the way you did 🤣. Going to have to get some now, and see if they taste like I remember! Thanks for bringing us along with you.

    Those corn chips look identical to the corn snack "Bugles" that we have in the USA -- the Bugles packaging has the slogan "America's #1 Finger Hat" -- I see that action plays in Japan just as well!

    I love your videos. Had to laugh at the zoomed in kid on the toilet hanging on for dear life. It reminded me of the 9hr train trip Miss 4 and I took recently. I wish there's been something like that for her to hang onto, rather than me, while using the toilet on the train!

    When I was in high school, my Japanese class watched a very beautiful film that took place in Otaru called “Love Letter.” I fell in love with Hokkaido when I watched that movie, and I can’t wait for the COVID-19 restrictions to be lifted so I can visit!

What sets you apart from the other traveller vloggers: you do not mention any sponsor and always use your friendly houmors and irony. Love it. Hope that next trip may have better weather. Bon apple tea. P:S.: in German, the correct translation for your room would be "Kabine". Ask me for more translations, if you like.

I recalled fond memories when I saw your corn finger snack. As another person stated in the comments, here in the US we call them Bugles and that is exactly how most of us would eat them😁. I have liked them since I was a kid, but I have not eaten them in a long time. After watching this I’m now craving them so I’ll have to buy some🙂.

    Yine güzel bir yolculuk.
    Güzel bir seyahat.
    Feribot yolculuğu gerçekten iyi görünüyor.
    Hava değişken🙂 Kar, yağmur,güneş.
    İyi günler dilerim.
