    My mother, who adores this channel and the food tour channel, introduced me to your ferry journeys...we've been working our way through your older videos to catch up...this is my first time commenting -- That room is gorgeous! Great mix of modern and traditional. I've never thought to put cornflakes on dessert, but I want to try it now. That morning view was lovely. My dad likes that you always have orange juice with your meals.

    12:42 I love that you added on "Calcium" -- enjoying small bone-in fish like sardines, sprats, and kipper snacks is one lovely alternative to guzzling milk or crunching chalk tablets! That whole dinner looked fabulous. I also enjoy that two of your final items were konjac --- maybe cutting a few kcal there while still having a nice treat? Takoyaki (and friends of) were lovely, too.

    How interesting that the staff felt it necessary to advise people not to wear the pajamas to the cafe or shops.

I'm sure I will be caught on the floor sniffing the rushes...would that be rude of me in Japan? Do you think they will object to me rolling around on the mat? This ferry was lovely.

      I think it refers to the fact that the room had both Western-style beds and a Japanese-style tatami space. It's a popular style in hotels and inns these days, too--partly because of the growing population of elderly travelers who might find a bed easier to get in and out of than sleeping on a futon on the floor.
