Happy Birthday Aimee from Adelaide! Thank you for showing us this lovely area of Japan. We are planning on travelling around Yamagata-ken in April next year. Can’t wait! Take care. Looking forward to your next vlog!

[@RoyandAimee]

Thank you Kate! This was our first time to Yamagata and we really enjoyed it - so much beautiful nature. If you're coming in April, hopefully the sakura will be blooming!

went here 2 years ago in winter to see snow monster. never knew the ski area of mount zao is actually having beautiful hiking trail in summer. happy belated birthday btw!

[@RoyandAimee]

Thank you, thank you! Ooh how were the snow monsters? We were thinking we should go back in winter to see them! Yeah I wish we could have shown the hike more - you're able to go all the way to Okama crater at the top.

[@zulfadlizainal_]

@@RoyandAimee the snow monsters was amazing! you guys should check it out in winter. just prepare some really good layers cause its freaking cold up there.

[@RoyandAimee]

Haha that sounds like excellent advice! Even being there on a windy day in September we thought damn it must get cold here in winter 😆

Hello aimee happy birthday its a bit late but I just noticed your channel today! I like your content so much ! I want to ask about the total cost for this ryokan stay if it’s okay ?

[@RoyandAimee]

Hello! Thank you for the birthday wishes haha it's coming around again soon so I'll pretend it's for this year! 😆 Thanks so much for watching! The ryokan was ¥28,600 per person which included dinner and breakfast and use of the private onsen. Definitely a bit of a splurge for this weekend haha but from what I can recall, there's also plans without dinner or breakfast or both which are cheaper.

素晴らしい動画ですね

ありがとうございます！

[@jovanwashington4528]

hi can u teach me how to book this ryokan ? its really hard to find it

[@RoyandAimee]

Hi there! So it looks like only the Japanese version of the site has the booking function on it. If you go to the following link on Google Chrome www.tsuruyahotel.co.jp/ you should be able to use Google Chrome's inbuilt "Translate" feature to convert the site from Japanese to English. The booking feature is on the home page in a blue horizontal strip underneath the header bar. I hope you can get a booking and enjoy a wonderful time! 🤗

[@Konichiwamydude]

did you actually eat that tamago natto Gohan?lol

[@RoyandAimee]

Haha I did actually eat all of it!
