Family Fun in America | Life in Japan Episode 121

[@ながしままさくに]

日本と違ってアメリカはすべて大きい。家族大人数。ライターさんのお母さん誕生日おめでとうございます。良いご旅行を。

[@osamukamata019]

日本とは桁違いの大きさで、1日では遊びつくせないですね。 コテージも大家族向きで、とても素敵な景色です。 母上様お誕生日おめでとうございます。

[@Neo-zu7er]

ご親戚一同が集まって大人数で凄く楽しそう！アメリカはいいなー！ コロナが落ち着いて私も行ってみたいですね！また次回も楽しみにしています！

[@dorothyephault732]

Happy Birthday to your mom! I subscribed to your channel back in February because I sat next to your mom on a connecting flight from NC to Fla ! We were strangers and then chatted the whole time! It is fun to watch your videos and see her! Family reunions are wonderful, so glad you were able to do that!

[@LIJ]

Wow! Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@amyrakoff5839]

Family is probably the biggest blessing you can have. Such great memories

[@buroilu]

楽しそうでよかったです。素晴らしい時間をお過ごしください。

[@claudiaw.2850]

I really love your documentary! Since I miss Japan so much it reminds me of the great times I spent there. The comment does not match really to this episode because you are back to the States… but anyway… have a great time in the US and see you back in Japan. Greetings from Southwest Germany

I'm a recent subscriber and I live a couple hours from the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area; I've stayed in (seemingly) very similar smoky mountain cabins in the past for family vacations and it was cool to see you guys go there in this video! Reminds me of very fond memories. Side note: You guys are the embodiment of wholesomeness!

[@LIJ]

Thanks so much - welcome to the channel :)

[@gamergramps8450]

Happy Teenie Birthday Ms.Becca and Ms. Anna! 🎂🙂✌

[@Pakalani03]

I think your parents and extended family and friends are all positive influences on you, Ruth and the children. It's humbling to witness; thanks for making me a happy observer. As you may remember, I am a student of the teachings of Buddha. But I do admire your religious philosophy because you don't just embrace its precepts, you live them. You have given me many concepts to learn about. Hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday.

[@LIJ]

Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@yukon6370]

kudos to the family!

[@comarites]

Nowadays, we can talk face-to-face using video phones on the Internet, but that's not enough. I still think it's great that we were able to meet in person at an important event. And the smiles on the children's faces were fantastic!

子供の頃、夏休みに いとこ達と遊んだのを思い出すな😁

[@michaelleary9233]

The merry go round there is awesome. My grandparents lived in Raleigh, NC and we used to go to the one in Pullen Park with cows, pigs, etc., so much cooler than just plain old horses.

[@MYHelen143]

It is envious that you can enjoy the amusement park without any masks. Please make nice experiences and share joys with the families you have not seen for a while. We are expecting you to come back to Japan with good memories in US.

This is so fun! I just came across your family KZbin channel! ( I really want my 3kids to watch this so I'm going to start playing it at home) I am an American and grew up in Japan, and my husband is japanese and I am back living in Japan but all my family is in the states ! Haven't seen them in 2 years 😭 so great to see you reuniting with your family ❣️ gives me hope ❣️ thanks for sharing your lives 💗

Oh wow! How old are your kids? In what area of Japan do you live?

[@annamae4761]

No way! I’m going to be sharing Gatlinburg with my husband for our 8th anniversary and he is super excited! Thanks for showing us what it’s like. I haven’t been in over a decade. I can’t wait to take my husband to the German restaurant over the cheese shop in the village. They have a great Reuben. Thanks for sharing your family experiences as well as what you do in Japan sharing His Word

Looking forward to seeing where you all went in Florida. My family and I use to live in TN near Nashville and going to the mountains was always fun. Now we live in north Florida near the ocean and love exploring all the things Florida has to offer.

[@LIJ]

So cool!

[@saluki83]

Happy birthday grandma! It was so nice!

[@midorikimura415]

しあわせな家族👍

[@celinaduguay6484]

The cabin-like houses in the mountains, the view from the drone was really nice. The worms and dirt dessert, I've tried it once about 9 years ago on my 10th birthday but I stopped eating Oreos and other kinds of cookies but I bet it's a fun dessert to make (especially for kids). One thing I think looks similar wherever someone is in the world, is that moment in the morning when the sun rises and in the evening when the sun sets, you get this array of different colors but it doesn't last for long until the sky goes to a different color but when you see the sky at this moment and if you look closely it kind of looks mountains or even the beach in the sky. I'm not sure if everyone has this perspective when they watch the sky.

[@caitlynt2864]

Awh I’m so glad you got to see your family! Mine is in Canada and I haven’t seen them since before the borders closed unfortunately. I also think it’s so cool that you guys are going/ went to Florida as well since that’s where I live! I thought how cool is it that my favorite youtubers from Japan ended up traveling all the way to the same state as me! I hope you guys have an amazing rest of your vacation! Love your videos, you guys are amazing inspirations!

[@LIJ]

Thanks Caitlyn!

The maze made of mirrors looks like it's inside a kaleidoscope and it's very beautiful✨✨✨ But it seems difficult to find a direction to go, right😅

[@GOMBE3]

I occasionally wonder why American people are so incredibly patient, tackling with a jig saw puzzle that has huge number of tiny pieces and consequently too much intricate! How many hours/days did it take to finish it?

[@LIJ]

It took several people just one day to do it! But I agree with you, I don't have the patience to do a jigsaw puzzle :)

[@ichirokun1662]

アメリカらしい乗り物だ！　確か重機で遊べる施設もあるんですよね、 オーナーさんがいつか日本にも造りたいってTVで言ってましたけど… 日本も大変な時期ですし妊婦さんが感染し赤ちゃんが亡くなるとか色々 そちらでいっぱ～い 楽しんで下さい

日本ではデルタ株が蔓延して子供達も多く感染していますが、アメリカはどうですか？ アメリカにいる間も、日本に帰ってきてからもどうかご家族全員お元気で

[@bjjikeda2529]

従兄弟姉妹？似てますね。血の繋がりを感じます。ライターさん兄弟姉妹よりその子供たち同士の方が似てる気がする。大人になるとそれぞれの人生で顔も変わるのかもね。

[@aburakadabura2]

これは私だけの独自の感想だけど、 ライター家の上のお姉ちゃんたちは日本の学校へ通ってるわけで かなり日本人化してるように感じるわね。 どこがと言われても困るんだけど。
