  • Just one hour north of Tokyo, Ibaraki is the ideal escape from the city. We head off to Kayak, Glamp and bathe our way through the countryside in Japan’s most underrated prefecture!

    NOTIFICATION SQUAD: Ibaraki is only one hour north of Tokyo and well worth a visit if you're looking to escape Japan's capital for a few days! Just don't let Sharla lock you away in a drum bath.
    But WHERE should we visit next? Give us your suggestions!

    I'm glad they were serious about you wearing proper gear for kayaking! There's always a chance something could happen and you'd fall in, and water rescue (actually getting you OUT of the water) takes time. If the water is below a certain temperature, you should always wear a wet suit or something more protective, because nature can be unpredictable.

    That Japanese school is just my old primary classroom. Really nostalgic! Also, Chris, for CHRISt's sake, put some crust on your steaks! Shalla's fears are justified! 😋

    I went to Tsukuba University for a year in college and loved Ibaraki😍 reminded me a lot of back home in upstate ny but with less snow😂
    Me and a friend went out to Ushiku to see the daibutsu but missed the last bus back and had to walk at night through the pitch black country side💀 was like a horror movie but a super funny experience in hindsight😂

    Ibaraki has some nice spots for sure.
    Mito has a nice lake park with a lot of Sakura in season.
    There's Hitachi seaside Park (huge flower garden).
    And some nice waterfalls, shrines and temples.
    Nice food like in many places in Japan.
    I wouldn't necessarily recommend going there on your first visit to Japan though.

  • @domoredujordan
    @domoredujordan Год назад +2

    I'm so happy you guys went to Ibaraki to see the daibutsu there! Your Shimanami trip inspired me to go to Japan, and Ushiku was one of my first places I went. I just had to see that statue. It's incredible on the outside, and on the inside!!! And there is a wonderful restaurant right next door, as well as a little market to check out. The gardens surrounding the status are also spectacular. Don't miss out!

    See you missed out on an opportunity here. If Sharla chucked a few spuds and carrots in that drum and a bit of seasoning, you could've been selling premium cans of Affable Soup right now!

    Quite honestly, I need more Sharla & Chris content together. It's about time! I spent so long hoping to hear that they were a couple; and now they're engaged! I had nothing to do with it, have never met them yet I still feel like a proud Mom.
    I'll never have a daughter-in-law or grandchild because it appears my Son is going to stay a bachelor because I believe his heart is 💔 permanently.
