It's November, but I feel like it's probably taking me a little while to get this video up.

I am out here doing a little bit of exploring.

I arrived this morning and went straight to, like, a rope way adventure.

It was It was neat.

This'll place is out in Kobe to a cable car up here, and the colors were absolutely beautiful.

Oh, Roy, that's what I'm doing.

Now that is really long.

Oh, boy, We're finished.

Wow, The spider webs.

Why?

They're spiderwebs.

The sound.

The sound is really more terrifying than anything.

Okay, And here's me.

Coming into this going thistle is gonna be easy.

I my legs.

I will say, though, if you're afraid of heights.

This is not the activity for you.

It's very yeah.

All right.

Let's see if we end up facing forward this time.

Not at all.

Always finish.

Yeah, clean every time.

Uh huh.

How's my back?

Look, now I'm gonna do some exploring of Arima on Sandtown before heading to a campsite for the night.

I just love the feel of the town like Look at this little road here is one of the three oldest on sand towns in Japan.

There's Diogo Shirahama.

And then there's Arima on Sandtown right here.

There are lots of wind sends in Japan, obviously, but its own send town right there.

E also had Kobe beef curry for lunch was good.

Spicy spice is always good, all right.

And this is a little rare.

So this place is called on Singer.

So Johnson Temple and literally right beside it is this Tosa Jinja, which is an own sen shrine.

I was literally in Kobe just about two months ago on just passing.

That is a loud crow just passing through.

So I just felt like I had Thio give it a proper visit.

This time I'm kind of running out of time, but I wouldn't be able to forgive myself fighting.

At least go to the very top and check out what's up there.

So on that's what she looks like.

Preys, air.

Beautiful.

And it doesn't hurt that I'm like the only person here getting pretty lucky with that lately, But part of that is just killing me.

The part that's eating me up is that the park is right over that, um, a park that is the pathway up to the park and I'm just I'm out of time, okay?

This'll is what the place looks like.

It's tiny, but it's really nice.

Mhm.

So that's what the cameras that looks like when you arrive at night.

You never really know.

But it's nice.

There was, like just one giant cloud above me right now, and it's spitting a little bit.

It's concerning okay, And just like that cloud passes.

The rain is gone in the day begins Right now, I'm in an area called Naruto.

That's right, Naruto in Tokushima Shikoku, which is by far my favorite island of Japan.

And I'd come out to pretty much every spot that I'm visiting on this trip A couple months ago, but part way through, I ran into Yohei, living in his abandoned elementary school out.

That was amazing.

So it took up almost a full two days, and I had to shave off a lot of other stuff.

And so when I got asked if I wanted to come back to experience a bunch of stuff in the area, I jumped on that opportunity and e Yeah, Okay.

Oh, look at those views.

Heard about these Alexander pillars last time and get a chance to stop it.

Visit them.

So I've kind of hiked up a mountain a bit.

Today was really hot today.

Off the sweater on the view alone has been so incredibly worth it with things whole spot, like you have mountains over there, the sand pillars down there.

I have no idea where this trail is gonna lead me.

It's nice.

Just toe.

Kind of enjoy nature a little bit.

It's nice to be able to experience more in Scocco.

I'm really grateful toe have these opportunities and to be able to share it with you guys, I don't know if you can see it.

Those little little caterpillar floating there?

Yeah.

Mhm.

Yeah.

Yeah, that is most certainly of you that you don't get everything.

I'm just gonna I think I'm gonna relax here for a while and just enjoy this.

E things has got Which kind of if you look at it, it has a similar look.

It's like the nut Iizuka and some ago juku kind of feel.

But again, it is 1:30 p.m. And there is almost nobody here except for me on this, said Okay, Truck right here.

Also, before we go, there is something that I really love about this.

It's 100 yen for a pine cone.

So if you want a pine cone and you're not a big fan of going into the forest, you can just get one here for 100.

Absolutely love places like this.

I gotta say, I genuinely feel truly fortunate to have lived in Japan for well over 10 years.

And to still be this excited to be here like it has not died down.

If anything, it's gone up tonight.

Absolutely, Absolutely.

Love that on.

Now.

Off to the oboe.

Okay, Gorge for a bit of a boat tour that I wanted to do last time, I didn't get the chance.

This gorge is beautiful.

Bythe e.

This is a nice room.

Gotta get changed and grab dinner pro tip for when you're putting on a yukata by yourself.

They always say he daddy, my left always goes over, right?

Don't mess that up.

Food looks absolutely delicious.

It always feels like just a little more than you deserve.

But they put a lot of effort into the presentation, so e o yeah.

Yes, That was nice.

This whole place is really nice.

Last time that I was in Tokushima, stand in a campsite.

A free campsite.

Nonetheless, it was still nice.

Just It's obviously not this nice.

I love the people here.

They're just so warm.

And for one of the gentlemen after the boat tour that I took, walked up, started chat with me, and we got into talking about shamisen and everything like that, and he gave me this beautiful box that's made and it's kind of local to the area.

This is it.

Here, slide this part open, and then you actually have to push from here in order to get these out.

I am really becoming a fan of Tokushima.

I can't believe it took me this long to start exploring it.

Just tell the road from here is cousin about that beautiful vine bridge that stretches over the gorge.

The entire areas gorgeous.

It's actually kind of nerve wracking the process.

There's lots of space in between each board your foot could just fit right through.

Like this actually isn't too far off from that abandoned school over.

Yo Channel runs his cafe in his hostile and all of that.

This is why I've been singing she Cocu's praises for years.

There's so much to discover.

It's pretty easy to understand why I love spoke so much, right, like this area is just.

Even though I came out this time to experience and do more stuff, it feels like it's still just a taste.

We're definitely coming back.
