Tokyo: It’s Christmas Morning in Japan!

[@bawintermage8351]

Cant believe that we have had the opportunity to watch your family grow. From you roaming across Japan, to introducing Kanae, to hiding the baby bump, to watching fireworks together , to bringing Leo home to you awkwardly pushing a stroller to becoming comfortable being Dad. Thanks for letting us be a part of your life. Merry Christmas John, Kanae, Leo , Okapi and the rest of the OIJ family

[@onlyinjapanGO]

I’m so grateful to be able to have shared these experiences with so many! She did do a good job of hiding it until … 😂 it’s bad luck to talk about a pregnancy until I guess after, I heard.

@@onlyinjapanGO You pulled a page from the Lucy and Ricky Ricardo camera angle playbook. Being a film/TV buff, I figured it out.. especially after watching the same trick on x files.

[@deborah5261]

Great post! 👍😊 And, Toby too. LOL!

[@klass_1221]

Omg, Leo is growing up too fast. I still remember when Kanae-san was first introduced to the channel. Continued blessings, John.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, Kanae, John & Leo! 🎅🎄💩

Merry Christmas Tedster!! Sorry we missed you live but we’re headed to a Christmas market to check it out. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas Day!!

Seeing kids grow makes you really realize sometimes, how fast times flies. Merry Christmas John, Kanae and Leo, enjoy the Holidays 🎄🎁

[@onlyinjapanGO]

So fast!! Now he’s arguing with me! 😂 what’s next?!

[@gailcrockett9883]

Gorgeous gorgeous family photo. Missing my grandsons in Japan. (Left before Christmas re holiday air traffic madness)

[@Marigen1971]

What awesome gifts Santa gave to Leo. I do wish being a kid during Xmas. I will never get anything better than the late 70's Barbie Motorhome.

Oh, Thank You ! You all are SO SWEET !!! Merry Christmas !!🥰

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and the family John, thanks for the awesome videos so far and looking forward to more next year. I'm hoping for my next visit to Tokyo sometime around April or May next year, and the small possibility of catching up if you're out and about at that time... hope you've got some more "You've Found Me" cards!

[@muhammadfirdaus634]

The old school batmobile is cool!! As a Batman fan, i approve of that. Leo’s so happy. Merry Christmas to the Daub household and the OIJ fam.. 🎄 🎅

[@onlyinjapanGO]

It’s the best! It’s amazing to me it’s made a comeback. Campy Batman is more kid friendly than the new stuff and I love the acting. It was actually so good for the parts!

[@jeffkleist9679]

I have been following your excellent channel for a while and thank you for sharing your Christmas Day with your family with us . I would like to make a special mention of your video …Kuramae Tokyo’s trendy hostel and cafe town. It was very nostalgic for me as I was in Japan in June and had 10 days at an APA hotel in Kuramae near Sumida river,I used to walk around Kuramae and along the river and to Asakusa every day ,spending every morning of my 10 days at coffee Kan ,an excellent cafe with great food which is opposite anytime fitness in your video at 48.55. I miss Japan and hope to return in 2025 ,keep up the great work and best wishes for the new year.

could you post a link to the awesome book that Leo got? Embarrassingly I think it will help my vocabulary ;) my Japanese is all utility and I have gigantic holes in my vocabulary, and this probably works way better for me than Rosetta Stone, and when I'm done with it I can pass it on to my Japanese friends with small children

Feliz Navidad

Can I get that book to learn Japanese?

I think so! Actually, it does both English and Japanese so it’s kind of perfect! It’s on Amazon.co.jp and I believe they deliver abroad
