      Fun fact: those glass jars at 11:18 and 22:47 are traditional jars to make marmalade in. They are heat resistant and can even be used to bake little cakes in. Since they come with a lid, they are perfect for restaurant use. But tat is why you very often find patterns showing fruits stamped into the glass :D

      Hello, since you enjoy ferry rides I can recommend taking the costal route of Norway. Bergen to Kirkenes and back for 12 days. During the winter you can see the Aurora Borealis and in the summertime you can see the midnight sun. You can also take the shorter alternative by traveling to Either Bergen or Kirkenes and take a shorter one way trip to the end destination making it a 6 day trip. I would recommend doing it in the summer unless you really want to see the Aurora Borealis, in the winter mostly dark all the time and the weather can be a bit rough. Hurtigruten is the name of the company doing those trips. And last I must say I really enjoy your relaxing videos, keep it up and keep exploring the world.

    Since I live in Oslo. Let me just say one little thing here. Not some people take this round trip to buy alcohol. All of us are. But a ferry ride to recommend from Oslo is the route to Kiel in Germany. It takes 20 hours one way. And it is built like a proper cruise ship. It is operated by Color Line. And yes, we are taking this trip to buy alcohol as well. Thanks for a great video.

    It always warms my heart that tourists have good experiences in Norway. It makes me happy. The DFDS ferries are like a mini vacation for many people. Usually Oslo - Copenhagen, then spend a day in the city, then the ferry back. Nice way to get away and enjoy yourself for a few days.

    My grandfather was from Skåne and we used to take the ferry from Helsingborg to Helsingør when we went down to visit. In Helsingør there is a castle, Krongborg, which is by the sea so you maybe seen it, that is where Shakespeare said Hamlet lived in. Train from Copenhagen is cheap and food in Denmark is excellent. Brostræde ice cream in Helsingør is simply the best ever.

    Glad to see you are living the dream, Kuga-San, and experiencing mass-transit in other parts of the world 😁! I especially enjoyed the seagull keeping perfect station, riding the wind alongside the ship 🥰.
    What a great bonus, that you got to see those spectacular sunrise and sunset over open water! And that breakfast by the window … that alone was worth the price of the trip 😁❤️!

  • @drdewott9154
    @drdewott9154 Před rokem +5

    Very nice video. Also fun fact, if the ferry seems quite cruise like, then there's a good reason for that. During the late 90's it actually sailed as a cruise ship in Asia, docked in Singapore and Hong Kong. Round trip "Mini-cruise" tickets are also regularly sold on the route, and are a common prize in games and competitions in Denmark.
    Also the E3 Shinkansen lookalike is a bit of a mess. What you saw is the IC4. A Diesel train built in Italy by Ansaldo Breda (now Hitachi Rail Italy) for speeds of up to 200km/h in the early 2000's. These trains have had numerous issues with reliability, build quality, and operations. Heck they're speed limited to just 180km/h and the State railways want to retire them as soon as possible. The last ones will likely be retired by 2026, after which they'll be sold to Romania. Well apart from the one train the Italian state stole and gave to the late dictator Gadaffi in Libya to be his private train.
    These trains will be replaced by a new train called the IC5. An all electric, 200km/h multiple unit train built by Alstom as part of their "Coradia Stream" family of trains that'll be delivered from 2025 onwards.

    Next time you get a chance to travel to Norway, you should try "hurtigruten" or "Havila Kystruten", the travel along the Norwegian coast, they are sort of similar to the Japanese long distance ferry, with a cargo deck, but they are more passenger oriented then a ferry (they can take a few cars). They travel the entire Norwegian coast, but stop at many places, so you can chose the length of the travel, for example, an overnight travel, or a travel between Bergen and Trondheim, where you take the train to Bergen from Oslo, and then train from Trondheim back to Oslo.

    Those trains that looked like the E3 Shinkansen are... not very good. They're called IC4, or Litra EG. Their full introduction was delayed by nearly a decade because they didn't work properly. Even now, they're really noisy unless you sit right in the middle of them. But the seats are comfortable and there's lots of leg space.
    The older IC3 (Litra MF) are much, much better. Very comfortable inside and quiet, despite being DMUs. They're used for most intercity trains. Their rubber noses are very distinctive.

    Hi Kuga, that was really fun to watch. I'm Norwegian, but I lived in Copenhagen for six years around 1990. I have taken the Oslo ferry many times, but at that time it was a lot more "ship" and a lot less luxury; not bad at all, but times have changed. The highlight for me was right at the end, where you are at OEsterport station, catching a train towards the city centre. I've stood on that platform countless times, waiting for the train; the trains have changed, but the platform is the same, it looks exactly as it did 30 years ago. A bit funny that you travel from Japan and make this video, and then I see it and remember when I was there. :-)
