I want to the UK and London for the first time. I really enjoyed my time there. Got use to saying sorry when making mistakes. Saw the Coco Curry and ate at Ippudo. London reminds me somewhat of Japan. People were very nice, especially, the Tube station employees.

Nice to see your cheery face again Amy. Thanks for all that info. So interesting! I think I like the cat saving the rich man from the tree struck by lightening story the best. Have Gotokuji on the itinerary the same day we visit Shimokitazawa. We are booked to finally go to Japan in November this year from Australia, after having our May 2020 trip cancelled. We will be taking your ‘Your Guide to Japan’ book you published and look forward to putting it to good use! Bet you can’t wait to get back there too. Bring on the gachepon!! 🙌🏼✈️🇯🇵

Fantastic, not long to wait till November! Shimokitazawa's a really cool place, it'll work well going there the same day as Gotokuji. Definitely send me or tag me in a pic of you with your book in Japan. I've been looking forward to them since it came out, and no one's been able to go since then!!

I'm sorry that you gotten taking out, I'm sure it wasn't anywhere fun for awhile... I do like the story about the old man, the cat, the shrine and the tree getting struck by lightening. Nice dresses and the way you were showing them off. ;) I'm glad you went somewhere else fun after that trip you were forced on... I'm still trying to get over the flu my family got from the fair two weeks ago from Saturday. Hit mom the hardest, but still seems to linger longer for others, weird. Anyways, see's you later... on KZbin. :D

Good to see you back and better, Amy. I imagine that there might be some planning for 2023 in the offing now that Japan is reopening to independent travel next month? I love your videos from Japan, so I think I’ll be looking forward to your going back as much as you are! In the meantime, more pop culture/history culture will be great - perhaps the odd Japlanning vid based on changes after Japan reopens?
@cakeswithfaces Жыл бұрын

@chakasmum Жыл бұрын
If you’re looking for ideas, how about Takayama during the Sanno Matsuri festival? It was - until railways - isolated in the mountains of Gifu, and has developed quite a culture of its own. They have these enormous floats that they pull through the streets on the opening night of the festival (weather permitting), and some of the floats are set up with puppets - and they have processions through the streets during the day. It happens in early April. You can get out to Nagoya on the Shinkansen, and then out by train to Takayama. The old town is gorgeous - and they have their own amulet, the sarubobo!

Just curious and was thinking I would like to see a short series about how you actually go about planning your trips. It's one thing being given the information but it's quite another to watch the actual process.

That would have been nicer - no amount of money is a substitute for your beloved pet! Fu is used sometimes as a counter for two, eg when you're ordering two of something, you say "(name of thing) futatsu". One is hitotsu and two is futatsu, so the "fu" part means two.
