Even japan has some dodgy park ups, but the old rule goes - if it doesn't feel right just move on.

Sometimes the best laid plans cost too many yen! The places you visited are absolutely beautiful! Those were huge bumble bees! Sometimes they will land on you or buzz around you, they are just checking for food. Stand still, don't swat at them and they will quickly leave. Move a little slower so they don't feel threatened. I guess everywhere there is danger and dodgey- you have to remember to keep your guard up, even on holiday. I think the 7 11 and the vending machines are amazing ideas! Wish we had that here. Loved your tee-shirt Sandy, and Tim plays the best music. Glad you are taking us along to beautiful places we'll never see in person. Thank you for the work it takes to do so. Safe, happy travels and Hot showers! GOD bless ❤

Thank you Alice 😊🙏bumblebees are just doing there job but sandy is scared silly of them 😊I always reassure her to mind them no business as they’re not concerned with us humans 😀she’s getting braver but still nervous around them 😊7/11 and Japan in general have a wonderful variety and high quality of food and beverages at a very affordable price unlike our respective countries 🤦‍♂️

Hello Tim and Sandy, I like Tim's sense of humor. I just put a Spinal tap song in our video 😂. Waterfalls are always good to film. Yep we know about parking close to restrooms. Sorry to hear about all the problems with the parks ups. Hope yall are having a good day. 👋

Wow those queues 😳. We have a bit of a fun game we play with our grandkids when we get fish n chips “who has the longest chip” haha you win 😂! Flower garden was beautiful. Some days are just tough no matter where you are or what your doing but you guys do it well. Thanks again for sharing your journey.

I connect to revisiting the van several times when we pull up at a location ‘ did you lock the door ‘ starts it then ‘ have you got the xxx ‘ 😂 Getting a late parkup is tiring for sure …. Thanks for sharing
@SandVan
@SandVan Месяц назад
Thank you stu 😊🙏yes the walk around checking all the door handles are locked and still walking away second guessing if it’s secure 🤦‍♂️🚐and the return for forgotten items is part of the charm for f vanlife ❤️

Ooooh, Golden Week. Oops. 😆 Long chips for the win though. Izu does look lovely. We have yet to go down that way. Driven by a couple of times and hopefully we'll get there next time, however the plan is too hit the far north of Honshu in the winter so who knows. So much to see and do in that fabulous country. Good to see you're having the odd ice cream. It is amazing in some places. The flavours can be wacky but delicious. Another most excellent episode!
@SandVan
@SandVan Месяц назад
Thank you 😊🙏yes the Izu peninsula is a definite visit for its beautiful waterfalls and stunning scenery 🤩we would love to explore the northern parts of Japanese in the future 🤩🚐

Wow! You guys were in 'our neck of the woods' (Shizuoka) it would have been amazing if we had of bumped into you while we were out and about. Perfect weather when you were in the Ito area of Izu Peninsula. We love Izu and the many hidden gems that can be found , off the beaten path (small car required). Your "slow ride" up Mt.Omuro and the wonderful views are something that we did a few years ago and have fond memories of being up there. Great that Tim decided to partake in the archery experience and got some nice camera angles of it. Glad the "Flowers to showers" eventually worked out for ya. Lookin' forward to watching more of your Japan adventure. I presume that you guys are back in Australia by now or are you still in Japan?
@SandVan
@SandVan Месяц назад
Thank you🤦‍♂️🙏alas we are back in Australia, we would have loved to have bumped into you in Japan 🤩we will be back in Japan for more adventures in the future 😊🚐it’s such a beautiful and diverse country 😀meanwhile we are embarking on a year long adventure exploring Australia 🤩🚐

Japan is a wonderful place but in a campervan you have to work hard to bathe. We found Sentos to be a great way. Search using 'public bath' or 'sento'. They usually are not concerned about tattoos. Supersentos on the other hand are so go to the little local ones. Tall chimneys for heating the water are a give away. Park ups are always a challenge. Michi no ekis were our go to if all else failed. Did you find any hotted up cars and bikes making being noisy at night? It seemed to be thing this year but not in the past. We had that problem a couple of times even at a small michi no eki. I am enjoying your videos, Natsukashī - we crossed paths but at different times.

Thank you 😊🙏so pleased you enjoyed our adventures 🤩although we found showers hard to come by , we found that it didn’t detract from the magnificent experience of Japan at all , we saw many hotted up cars and motorcycles there but appreciated them for their beauty and engineering excellence 😊but not so much their noise 😂
