Japan is VERY different from America. In today's video we take you with us as we continue along our family trip in Japan. We go on a week long road trip to explore Mount Haruna, a beautifully shaped mountain similar to Mount Fuji. Then drive over to Nikko National Park, explore Fukuroda Falls(one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Japan), & do a day trip to the coastal towns Zushi and Kamakura where we get a beautiful view of MT FUJI!! It's an amazing experience, but there are definitely some culture shocks along the way!! Tell us what you think below:

Hi Risa here 👋 from Japan living in the States 😊 I’m sure all of the sudden Risa is not such a rare name over there! I know it’s a challenge to live in a completely different country but glad you are enjoying the life there so far. Good luck!

Your family is so beautiful. Happy 1st birthday Noah, she is such a sweetheart . I recently had my first visit to Japan back in March and was not disappointed. Beautiful people, beautiful country, love the warm seats 🚽 😂😂 everywhere you go . Kamakura and Enoshima Island was a highlight of my trip. Looking forward to your next video 🇦🇺🐨

Oh that is so much fun that you guys made a visit to Japan! Even better that you had such a great time! We can understand why! We love Kamakura and hope to make it over to Enoshima Island to explore more! :) Thank you for the Happy Birthday wishes! for Noa. We are excited for you to see the next video too!

What an interesting video, you visited some amazing sights. Willa is so confident and willing to try new experiences, its a delight to see and her reaction to the wonder of the waterfall brought tears to my eyes. How can Noa already be a year old?! Her delight on the boat trip shows she is going to enjoy adventures like her sister. Looks like your family had a blast!

@OurStorytoTell 3 месяца назад

Aww this is so touching!! Our hearts were bursting when we saw her reaction to the waterfall as well!! The proudest parents!!

I am so happy, seeing you guys with your family, exploring Japan. Enjoy! That is just such a great experience... Thanks for taking your followers with you. May I ask a question? As I am working in HR in Germany, I am curious to learn about how many vacation days Tanner's got per year? In Germany, when you work a 100 %, it is 30 days, which is a lot - I know. Plus bank holidays. Is there a difference between working in Japan vs Germany? Although I have never met you in person: I do feel a real emotional connection. ❤ Take care, you guys. Lots of love from Germany.

I am known for walls of text (grins), but today I am in a hurry - lucky you! So just short - the video awakened my desire for ice cream! Time really flies by; it is like yesterday to remember when you gave birth to Noa and now it is her first birthday. And how overwhelmed she seemed to be looking at the candle on her cake! So cute! And Willa is the perfect big sister. Keep having a good time in Japan, cu here next time!

@OurStorytoTell 3 месяца назад

Haha we are craving the ice cream already too!! We can't believe how fast time has come and gone. It's making us want to savor every moment. Willa is really the best big sis!! See you again next week. Thanks for watching. :)

It does not seem like it has been a year since she was born. She is growing into a beautiful little lady. And oh my goodness, Wila is the expert food trier 😂❤. Thanks for sharing.

It sure seems Risa's mother and sister initially were being diplomatic about their hotel rooms being 'interesting' but they were game and appeared to have enjoyed the rooms in spite of them being unlike US or European hotels. More importantly, it's great that Risa's parents, sister and your entire family got to soak in some of the coolest sights (and cuisines) in that part of Japan! What a treat for all- not just the unique locales but the fun bond the seven of you have being together! Happy 1st Birthday to Miss Noa! She sure had her fun and it's great to see her WALKING so confidently at such an age! Congratulations and thanks for sharing your latest ventures with us (and not just for the exquisite artistic shots)! P.S. I didn't know that Disney had a separate theme park from TokyoDisney to highlight the coast and sea in Japan! Amazing!

@OurStorytoTell 3 месяца назад

We loved spending a few weeks with them! Exploring more of the nature areas was sure amazing, and we're happy we had decent weather for the most part. We know, isn't she just growing up too fast? We can hardly believe it sometimes, but we love watching her grow. She's a tiny bundle of energy and happiness! Yes, Disney Sea is really impressive! We hear they are even opening up four new rides later this year. Definitely worth considering if you ever come to Japan.

That bridge and the waterfall are amazing.. It must feel a little bit claustrophobic in the tunnel to get to the platform..🤔 Golden Gate and Niagara Falls in very small..🤣

@OurStorytoTell 3 месяца назад

It really was so cool! If you do get claustrophobic then yeah it might have been a challenge, but thankfully you could bypass it a different way (the way we came out with the small suspension bridge).

Looks like a great family trip, and happy birthday Noa! Looking forward to seeing all the festivals return as this is the first full year back without any health restrictions. There's lots of lesser known festivals all over, and most festivals or events with "night light up" or "fire" in the name exceeded our expectations :-) On that note hopefully they'll hold the beach horse archery one again in Miura this year (it's called the Miura Dosun Festival Kasagake and held on Araihama Beach around May usually)

@OurStorytoTell 3 месяца назад

Happy Birthday, Noa! Some beautiful scenery - Mount Haruna (?) reminded me a little of Crater Lake.

@OurStorytoTell 3 месяца назад

Thank you! Yes, it does remind us a bit of Crater Lake as well. Apparently it can become quite busy during the summer, so it was a fun experience having so much space to ourselves.

@K__a__M__I 3 месяца назад

So, uh...you went to all the areas I wanted to recommend to you...hmm. 😔 But yeah, Kamakura is _definitely_ a summer destination, especially when the greater Tokyo area turns into a frying pan crossed with a sauna. Well, that's the great thing about Tokyo, pick any direction and travel for two hours and you'll find great spots.

@OurStorytoTell 3 месяца назад

Haha that's funny! They are some of the popular places in the area we know. If you have any others, please don't hesitate to tell us. We are always open for more suggestions. :) We still need to make a visit to Enoshima Island so maybe we will head there after Golden Week is over to try and beat some of the major crowds! Thanks for the reminder about the location!

Sounds like the eggs you've been getting were onsen eggs. They're supposed to be the best eggs in the world. Some people only eat the yolk though, if the white is too runny. PS Happy Birthday Noa!
