when Kyde said the tomb had no people other then herself and Eric I guy in a blue top walked right behind her lol :)
+nicksynet Yep, haha, I was just laughing at her about that literally 5 minutes ago. Hahahahahha. -E
The plant Eric worried about getting his hand eaten was a male cycad - some of the oldest plants on the planet.
The seaweed that tasted vinegary was mozuku.
I didn't get a proper look at the turtle but it looked a bit like a red-eared slider. A popular pet turtle from southern US and now on the UN's list of 100 most invasive species.
The "palm tree" was a tree fern. You'll see them in Kyushu too. You'll also see them in "The Last Samurai" because that was mostly filmed in NZ where there are lots. (That's why you occasionally feel you're in Lord of the Rings. The remainder was mainly on Shoshazan behind Himeji.
Mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of a fungus. The vegetative part is called mycelium.
Eric - never lose your boyish enthusiasm. It's catching. Great movie.
Thanks for the info! Glad you enjoyed! -E
The little lime is called calamansi, and the spam nori sandwich is also found in Hawaii, it evolved during WW2 when Spam from Wisconsin was shipped for soldiers' ration and the locals incorporated it to their meals.
I came here to say this. Crazy how an American soldiers ration from over 70 years ago is now a regular part of the regional fare.
Especially when it's something as lackluster as SPAM. Hahahaha. -E
Spam is popular in Korea too for same reason.
I don't know why you guys don't have 1 million subscribers!
Not enough people have clicked the subscribe button! -E
i did ....... now
*1* no clickbait titles.
*2* no overtly gratuitous cover photo/thumbnails for your videos.
do both of those & you'll be at a million in no time !!!
*_note_*_ : actually, please don't. i like you guys just the way you are._
well because they are really nice genuine people
I lived in Okinawa for 7 years. And I love eisa such a great dance to watch
25:29 "End of the world" :D Interestingly playing in the background. Love that song.
Good catch! -E
Some tidbits I thought of while watching your awesome video (my mom is Okinawan so I am pretty excited for this series!):
- American foods like spam, hershey's, 7 up, etc became commonplace when the US was in control of Okinawa, so much of it has become part of modern Okinawan culture.
- Many Okinawan foods are made with lard (ex- chinsukou, satandagi). Pigs are a big thing!
- Fukushuen was created bc Naha and Fuzhou, China are sister cities. It's still true that Okinawa is influenced by Chinese culture though.
- In the last video, the stuff you thought was egg in the champuru was actually "fu", which is a kind of bread that soaks up a lot of water and juices. There was egg in that champuru too but mostly fu.
If you have questions about anything you saw in Okinawa, just ask! \(^u^)/ Keep it up guys
Awesome, thanks so much! -E
You two are great together,it's as if you were born to be together,keep the great videos coming:)
Thanks so much, such kind words! Will do! -E
You never fail to relax me, love you ケイディ、エリック。
Thanks! -E
i always get very happy when your videos come up in my feed, makes my day!!!
Yay! -E
So happy I have time to watch this before work 😬😁
Perfect!
These vlogs are so relaxing. I love watching you two it's really interesting and just fuels my wanting to go over and visit Japan. You guys are so adorable and meld so well. Love you two , bye. ❤️
Awesome you are enjoying the videos! Thanks! -E
loved hearing the "Yamada Denki" jingle....as much as it drives you crazy while walking around inside, it is so catchy
+Connor McDuffie Haha, it must drive employees to suicide.
I'm watching on my way home from work, I couldn't wait
Hope you weren'T driving! -E
hahaha omg the music in 21:57 is just perfect... xD
Haha, yea, I laughed at that. Hope it doesn't get flagged by RUclips for piracy! -E
Guys, just wanna say we're on vacation in Okinawa because of these videos, and it totally lives up to how you've captured it... so thanks! This place rules.
+Steve Krecklo Awesome!!!
After a long day of work, its good to kick back and eat some ice cream while watching you guys!
Sounds great! -E
Great YT travel channel. I like that fact that both of you take the time to explain different types of food and show these wonderful sights/scenery/attractions from various countries. Thanks and keep 'em coming.
Thanks! Glad you are enjoying the videos! -E
Great video! Fun lily fact - if you buy lilies for show, when they open take out the pods before they dry because the orange powder gets everywhere and stains. The pods are used for cross-pollination - bees and insects will come for the nectar in the lily and the powder will stick to them. When I sold flowers, we'd have to be mindful of the lilies and pull out the pods or else they wouldn't sell. haha
Haha, I'll keep that in mind! -E
ty for sharing - i always watch you guys from the UK :)
I took my son to Japan once and we left one week before THE tsunami, phew, lucky I guess. Japan is our favourite place ever.
Oh wow, glad you made it out before the tsunami made getting around super difficult! Hope you can visit again sometime! -E
You guys make me miss Okinawa! I am from Philippines, and when I went to Okinawa, I felt right at home! I still have so much more to explore there! Sad there is no direct flight, so I did my layover in Fukuoka to get there. I hope to be back cause I miss the food too!
first time commenting just like to say i love love watching all ur videos nice and long and never boring
Thanks so much! Glad you found us! -E
You guys are so fun to watch! Much love!
"The pineapples here!!!" haha your face so full of delight!! Love the videos guys :D
Glad you enjoyed! -E
Got the humanoid, got the intruder! - nice classic game reference Kyde.
Oh man I loved seeing Eric freak out over the little steps and jalapeños! It's the little things in life right, man?! Lmao!!!
Hahaha
Yay! A nice, long video. I've worked so much overtime the past two weeks, my brain is fried. I saw this come up today and I was so happy. Your travel videos are such a great way to relax and enjoy a nice mental escape. You always seem to time them perfectly, too. As soon as I sat down to work this morning, I thought to myself "I really hope Kyde and Eric put up a video soon because I'd love to just get lost in one for a while." Thanks for being good for my mental health. ;)
So happy we could help you chill out a bit! Don't work too hard! -E
from what ive been told the taco rice originated in Okinawa because it was very popular among the U.S. troops stationed there and was a type of comfort food for them.
I can totally see that! -E
Always so happy to see your videos. A little bit of me went Okinawa today. Am laying too close to laptop screen, unsuspecting lobster parts gave me a scare. I had to laugh because I actually moved away. Great video.
Hahaha, wish we could shoot in 3D! -E
What's the place in Japan that you have not gone, but look forward to the most?
Nice video/tour....I have a few friends in Okinawa, one was stationed there during the Korean war, then he married this lady who now has a okinawan dance academy in Los Angeles...
Lucky place to be stationed! -E
I was born here in Okinawa but I never had the chance to see the whole island 'coz my parents had to to take me home to the Philippines. Thanks you so much for sharing!
You are welcome! Hope someday you can get a chance to explore Okinawa! -E
I'm not really sure either where Kyde was going with that flower explanation but I tell ya was it ever something else! Great video :-)
Hahahahahaha. -E
What luck! That was the Okinawan Meanie Bird. Very rare. :)
having a bad day at work until i went to youtube and there is A NEW VID!!! yeiiiii. my day just got better.
love kyde and eric!!!!!!
"it's a tomb, dude"
Yay! -E
Good video! You may have found this out already but "soba" can sometimes be a generic term for noodles (as in "yaki-soba" which just refers to "fried noodles"; they are usually not made of buckwheat flour). You could also say "Chuka soba", or "Chinese noddles", to refer to ramen type noodles in general. It seems like "Okinawa soba" was influenced by this "Chuka soba" (which was actually called "Shina soba" back then --- "Shina" is considered a bit derogative now), and that's why Okinawan people use the term "soba" for those wheat-based noodles. Hope you liked them!
Back when we were affiliated with Nichiren Shoshu. Some friends who went on Pilgrimage to the Head Temple brought back maps of the Temple grounds for me as a souvenir. On the map were clouds as well. I was told those were the areas you could smoke.
Okinawa was it's own Kingdom for a long period of time and they had relations with China, I believe long before the Japanese. So they were directly influenced by Chinese architecture, especially among religious and the wealthy class.
NICE work guys. Btw that beach side resto seemed so relaxing, it had that Goa vibe going on!
Yea, it was awesome! Even the vicious poofball dog! -E
+Kyde and Eric Man that dog/bird was creepy!
Katie is a Rick, always wanting to do the most adventurous stuff!
Oh man! -E
sweet video you two loved it
Glad you enjoyed! -E
Hi guys,I miss living in japan.Thank you for the awesome memories.I wish i could order spices and other things from there.
You'd be surprised what you can find on Amazon!
i forgot about amazon.lol
Thanks Eric and Kyde, watching right now at 12:22am Australia Eastern Standard time, Kyde is talking about lobsters and it's cool. Stay golden guys and keep up the good work,,,
Aldo do ppl often say you look like Quentin Tarantino? because I think you do and it's always good. Eirc = QT.
Haha, happens sometimes. Hope I age better than him.....haha. -E
Even more happy to watch this while working ^_^
Don't get fired! Haha. -E
Thanks, guys! It's been a horrible week of family drama/crisis. I needed a "vacation"!
OOOOH! A PINEAPPLE! How freaking adorable is that?
Glad we could help you escape! Hope things are going better this week! -E
My strange addiction I must pet lobsters lol Eric's giant boat ride...smelly ladies ROFL
Haha
Hello Kyde and Eric! I just wanted to share with you (if you don't already know about it) that you actually CAN make a puzzle of any picture (why not an epic scenery of a city, it's my personal favorite when it comes to puzzles). All you need is the app/program Microsoft Jigsaw and you can make a virtual puzzle out of any picture. Unfortunately the "expert" level only lets you (at least me) divide the picture into 216 pieces. Great vids. Keep up the good work and props to Eric for exercising that hitchhiker's thumb. You're the champ!
Oh neat! -E
Hello Eric and Kyde, interesting video, I live in Kaohsiung, Taiwan and I am going to visit Okinawa next week and watching you guys, had opened my interest o explore more Okinawa. Blessings. Keep up the fantastic work!
Nice! Enjoy it, it's a wonderful place! But Taiwan is no slouch itself! -E
Hello Eric,
Thank you for your reply. Please continue posting more informative videos wherever you guys go to.
I will let you know, how it goes for us in Okinawa.
Blessings
William.
Regarding question near 29:38. Ryukyu (Okinawa) Island was a independent Kingdom until Japan annexed it in 1879 during Japanese military expansion and invasion of Asia. In the previous 1500 years, Ryukyu Kingdom mainly had a political relation and trade relationship with China. Therefore the native Ryukyu-ans historically had a strong Chinese influence, which is still evident today.
Yea, it's super evident! -E
It is so good that you give the videos enough time to develop a really good flavor of what you are experiencing! Attention span is an underrated thing--I feel the same kind of mental imagery as when reading a book, and time goes by so quickly. Eric, I think if you put more descriptive information in your "About" section, the a-rhythm might pick you up better.
Haha, I wish it was that simple. -E
0:17:57 That's a Cycad, likely a "King Sago" since they're native to Okinawa and southern Japan. Cycads are cool because just like the Gingko tree and Wollemi Pine, they're living fossils. Their kind existed when the Dinosaurs were alive. Their ancient relatives, which were identical in appearance except for being much larger were eaten by Hadrosaurs and Brachiosaurs... I never studied them too extensively but I think that's a female flower. Individual Cycad plants are male or female- just like Gingko trees.
0:47:57 More Cycads. They do call them "Sago Palms" or "Cycad Palms" but they're not really in the usual palm tree family.
Oh wow, amazing! -E
El-Caminos to the max, next scene squeeling toy pigs. This channel gets my vote for the most random & eclectic :)
Haha, a vote I'll take! -E
17:20 what a fascinating thought. Almost a "high" experience. lol
Haha, yea, we talk about stuff like that all the time. -E
The freaking tree is Ficus(榕樹). The hanging hairs is its unique *ROOT* that absorb the moisture and nutrition in the air.
Oh wow, neat! -E
It is interesting that Spam Musubi has become a staple in the Japanese community as well as the Polynesian community here in Utah. The Japanese Buddhist temple here just had O-Bon and I had a yummy spam musubi there.
I just learned there is a Polynesian community in Utah. -E
Yesss! I've been waiting for a new video! These always make my day at the office past faster! :D
Don't get fired! -E
My boss is pretty cool with it. As long as I get my work done, she is fine with me plugging in my headphones and tuning in. :)
You guys are amazing!! Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks! -E
I grew up in Maryland and went to Giant as well. I only got to look at the lobsters.
that okinawa alcohol is called Awamori (distilled), so totally different from sake even though ut is made of rice & water. Awamori is more like "shochu" type alcohol :)
Yea, we learned all about it at the factory we went to! Really cool! -E
WOW! Happy to see it
Yay!
Nice long video i love it!
Enjoy! -E
you guys are adorable
oh my gosh im from virginia too and when you said that I was so exited I love you and Eric's videos I hope to live in Japan when I get a bit older ^.^
I hope you get the chance! It's easier than it sounds! -E
Nice goin' Kyde with the Pigeon! Birds are our friends! I should know cause I have a parrot! :)
Haha, even pet birds freak her out. -E
The style of the rice ball that Eric ate at the market was called "Onigirazu." The term "Onigiri" was derived from the verve "Nigiru" which means squeezing on the palm. "Onigirazu" is a type of "Onigiri has become so popular in recent years, and it is like a rice sandwich, and you do not squeeze rice on your palm to make one. So the term "Onigirazu is the negative form of "Onigiri." If you search "Onigirazu" you find lots of "how to make" videos on youtube. BTW spam was probably the influence from the long US occupation after the war. Okinawa was occupied by US until '70s, and still got a big US base which is considered a trouble maker on the peaceful islands.
Very cool info! Thanks! -E
You gotta see uminchu festival and hari (boat race) ! Enjoy nigauri !
We did! Next video! -E
If I have my kana correct, the name of that ship is ieshima. I wonder what that means.
Oh, wait. That's the name of an island, isn't it?
I have a bumper crop of pineapple in my back yard. We planted tops from store bought fruit, and about 3 years later, they flowered and fruited. We have 6 pineapples getting ripe right now, and I harvested one yesterday.
Yea, named after the island! Very cool you get to eat pineapples you grew! -E
black cane as in cane sugar original soda they used cane sugar then later on they use corn syup because its more cheaper
Not sure if this got answered but the plant you thought was a palm tree is a cycad. Very expensive in New Zealand.
48:20 is a cycad palm we have them here in Sydney oz also!!!! And Eric that's new growth at the top will eventually look like the bottom soon!!!! 😂
Oh wow, wild! -E
Oh Eric, that water temple reference killed me. That place did look hella confusing though!
Haha, it was a maze! -E
A couple questions. Please don't feel obligated to answer. :)
1. How did you two meet?
2. What state/states are you from?
3. What motivated you both to live and travel abroad?
4. What is the thing you miss most about home?
Wow! I am 229 to see the new video. One of these days I am going be one of the 1st 10. Don't forget to like it.
Got to be fast on the trigger! Thanks for the like! -E
Lol this was awesome guys! I hope you feel better soon Kyde! (I love Goofy Movie too! The second one with Max going to college is my favorite)
My question for the end stuffs: Would you guys ever do a video about how you recreate your favorite meals at home? Like Japanese dishes that maybe you dont want to go out for, or even like American dishes you make when you want something different.
Im interested to see the domestic side to living abroad. The grocery stores look so cool there!
I don't think we eat in a typical way at home. Someday we will make a video about it, it's kinda strange. Hahahaha. -E
The liiiiion sleeps toniiiiiiiiiiight!
Hey "kyde"!! How do you really pronounce your name? It really sounds almost like, "kady", short for Katherine. I thought it be a weird spelling for Katherine. Where is your name coming from?
Nice video I’ve been to Okinawa and I’ve also been to pineapple park
Japan = Rick
Kyde and Eric = Morty
Shiiiiet.
Spam musubi they sell those at 7-11 here in Hawaii lol great vid as always, you guys are awesome!
Thanks! -E
love all your great videos. definitly makes me want to come travel in japan
Okay i have a question! Where's both of your favourite "events" you guys have been to in Japan? e.g the sumo wrestling/mascot festival. You guys seem to love everything you experience:)
I enjoyed the number of theme park references (two!) in this video. I'll stick with that theme, and turn to Disney because I'm a fan. What are your favorite rides at any Disney Park?
Pirates! Hahahaha. Kyde would say Space Mountain for sure. Did you catch our Disneyland video? ruclips.net/video/BKePs_kHCzw/видео.html
Oh I guess I forgot about it! Does sound familiar for sure x) memories are hard, yo
Aww man the Pineapple Factory is really cool. You could have tried the different wines and cookies and cakes and visit the shop where you can buy different food items. I was hoping you guys would have gone in. I haven't been there in years but we visited often when ever people came over to visit.
+Reeitter Mitchell We actually did go in, but for some reason (I don't remember what it was) didn't make any video about it. -E
I would have loved to see if there were any changes. I was last there 9 years ago. We lived there for about 7 and half years. I am glad I found your channel, it was very nostalgic for me. You guys are too cute!
hahaha, thanks!
Awesome video, Kyde is definitely a Rick! Get Schwifty!
Shit on the floor! -E
Wait you found a blue fish? You found Dori!!
She's not looking well....
Never pet the lobsters, but my parents and several others I saw would have their kids just sit and watch the lobsters in the tanks for awhile as a distraction while they shopped.
AHH! it's so nice to feel invited to your adventures. I'll sit here with my wisdom teeth removed hopped up on painkillers and laughing at the hilarity of you two. You guys make this whole bedbound mess infinitely more enjoyable!
Question! Do you guys keep houseplants? Nothing brings the out of doors home quite like some fresh air making plants :)
Much love from Idaho, land of potatoes and onions
Haha, wonderful. Feel better soon! -E
awww think the bug might have been a thorn bug ^^
Calamansi - that green thing they give in the PHilippines!
As someone who's getting stuck in front of every map everywhere forever - I agree, that that map is indeed amazing \o/
Haha
So, did you visit a karate dojo? Okinawa is the home of karate! For many centuries, Okinawa was a tributary to China. Karate developed as a blending of Chinese Kung Fu and the local grappling/wrestling techniques (te).
We did not, but now I wish we had! -E
Hey, was at the B/G October Fest just two weeks ago. Was digging the little El Camino truck. Another great video you two. Does any of your family come to visit you? It would make for a great video of you taking them to some of your favorite places in Tokyo or the surrounding area. Just a thought.
Family and friends have visited, but not often. Usually when they are here we spend time with them and don't have much time for stoping to make videos, but I like your idea! -E
I'm from Virginia too but I have never pet a lobster.
Haha, me either. Kyde is "special." -E
hi Eric and Kyde, what kind of cam corder do you use, if you don't mind sharing?
It's a Sony DSC-HX90V. -E
thank you! Need one for my trip, really like the quality of yours.
That patreon section was a laugh!
!
This is a sentence that holds the power of making you stop to read it. Have a good day :)
Y'all are seriously the best. Y'all mentioned the Alamo in this video. Have y'all ever been? I'm from San Antonio.
Haven't been yet! -E
Giant in Virginia!!? I went to McLean high and used to go to Giant a lot, Remember seeing Karate Kid there lol
Ha! Eric, love the subliminal strongest person in the world bit.
And that camera has some serious zoom to focus on that fisherman like that. Way cool. I hope China Grove isn't going to get you flagged?
Spams? Banyan Trees? Are you sure you didn't end up in Hawaii at some point on your Okinawa trip? Made me chuckle a bit since in Hawaii, spam on rice balls is their thing.
Yea, it is a lot like Hawaii in a lot of ways! -E
OMG, I would have totally been all over those individual pineapple cars!!!!!!!!
