So here in Yahiko they have this famous thing called 'panda-yaki'... Obviously they also sell 'sofuto-kurimu' or 'ice cream'. We're gonna go and try it. And they also have anko, custard, cheese and chocolate. I have got my little panda-yaki with edamame, and I'm going to eat it! Oh my god friends, this is the cutest, the CUTEST. It was a long train ride here, so I am ready to eat my panda. Panda-panda-panda! Mmm... That is the inside of my panda. We just took a picture to go on the wall! So literally our picture it going to go up here. You guys have to come and see it. So if you're in Yahiko, you need to go there and eat some panda-yaki. The people in there are so nice. Guys, they gave us free tea. This is the best. The countryside is the best! And the panda-yaki is a really kind of refreshing, interesting taste, at least the edamame one is... And I'm sure the other ones are delicious too, 'cause like... I'm getting run over, I'm gonna stop vlogging. We discovered a foot bath and it's holding us all up because it's so much fun. Rachel: It feels really nice. Halloween! Okay, we're here to eat lunch now. Unfortunately, it's just a set lunch, so I can't eat anything but... Everyone has donated their edamame! I have a great little spread here. Thank you guys! We've come to Yahiko-jinja... To see deer. That is a power spot, those are small children. Oh my god... Oh no! We can't get close to them! Look! Look. Oh they're so cute, they look like little cats curled up on the ground... kind of. We found the deer. We also saw an archery competition, which was pretty exciting. I've actually never seen that before. And they had really big bows! Yahiko in the rain. We're gonna check out our room now! Cute. Vlogception! Only the queen can sit there. Kasia: That's what they call me. Here we see a vlogger in her natural habitat. Beautiful. This is a Japanese toilet. In Japan. This is the bathroom. This is... the free stuff! So you guys think Japan is high-tech? This is the actual truth. Like if I gave you a cassette, what would you do? Millie: I think I would press a button... to open it. Millie reacts to... cassette players! Millie: I'm scared that I'll break it. Mimei: I'm so old. 21-year old Millie tries to figure out a cassette player. Millie: I've seen them before... *gasps* You did it! We have a very nice window seat where we can look at the rain. And contemplate cassette players and other old, obsolete technology. We all fell asleep. Because... that was a tiring ride to Yahiko this morning. Now we're going to go get dessert. At dinner time. Vending machine, vending machine, vending machine. Kasia: Mimei got the prettiest ice cream. Mimei: So good... Isn't it the prettiest? Kasia: It's so pretty. This is so good... It's tsukimi season in Japan, so there's lot's of bunny-themed stuff, which is pretty adorable if you ask me. So the shrine is lit up at night, apparently... We're going to have a quick little look. We just had a delicious dessert at the cafe here. It was probably the best matcha ice cream I've ever tasted. It was so, so good. It was heaven. Shrine at night. The light of our cameras will lead us through this darkness. Okay guys, our beds are made, it's time to go to sleep, good night. Good morning! Day 2 in Yahiko! We're about to get breakfast. I'm really excited 'cause I wanna drink coffee and eat food. Yay! We're basically staying at the most gorgeous place I've ever, ever stayed in. It's so quaint and beautiful and lovely... We were late to breakfast, but they still let us eat breakfast. They're the nicest, I totally recommend this place, like... I don't think I've ever had a more luxurious hotel/ryoukan experience, ever. Here's a peek at another part of this hotel, this is an onsen where you can bathe all your worries away. Just what we all need, right? This is where put your belongings while you're in the onsen. Because obviously you go into the onsen naked... So what you do is you wash yourself over there before you get in. And then you just bathe. The alkaline in the water is supposed to help with your skin, to make it beautiful. Today we're just going to hang out in Yahiko and then head back to... Or, I'm going to head back to Tokyo, everyone's going to go their separate ways I guess. Um, but it is raining and I know the plan was to go to a park, so I don't know what's going to happen. Magical things... Mao is still vlogging. We really need to go, and she's like vlogging. I've never been hugely into small towns, but this one is absolutely the quaintest, most adorable cute little thing ever. And I think it would make a really great tourist experience actually, like if you want to go to a small town in Japan, this one is adorable, the people here are so nice, and so willing to help, and... everything. I think out taxi is here, so gotta go. So we've come to an old, wooden school in the middle of Yahiko. This is very different from a regular Japanese school. There are tatami-mat-classrooms. They have whiteboards though, I don't know if they would have had them back then. Okay, someone from the Meiji-jidai really likes Spongebob. Or I suppose they came up with Spongebob? Illuminati confirmed. Okay, Rachel told me there's a ring toss. I need to find the ring toss. I need to be like a Meiji-era student and throw a ring. A wild Millie appears! Oh, this is different from what I'm used to. Pretty intense stuff here. The first floor of this building is set up as a hands-on learning experience to show everybody what it was like in the old days, when stuff was vintage and cool. Aren't you guys glad we have modern technology? Thumbs up if you remember these... Thumbs up... Ooh, look at that old thing. Alright, time to challenge this ring toss. Alright, no one said I was good at sports. Yes! One! Yeah, one! Yeah! Stuff. From the past. Slightly broken. We're learning about the world. Rachel: Oh sweet. Here we see New Zealand, right at the very bottom where no one will find it. Just in case there's a war. The second floor is actually a community centre, so they use this for multiple things, really. It's a really great insight into how people lived back then, and the kind of things that they did and learned, and yeah... Education for the win! Stay in school. Okay, it's very rainy, I'm afraid I might slip. Going up here... Oh wow... Possibly this is the old haunted house we're visiting today. Oh my god a frog. Oh my god a frog. It's so well, like, camouflaged. Rachel: Yeah, I literally can not see him, he stopped jumping, but no idea where he is. I'm, so glad I didn't step on that froggie. Haven't found any ghosts yet, but I'm still looking. Bye-bye school. Forever. Going to get some lunch. Everybody's got their lunch. Unfortunately there are no vegetarian options, which is something you need to kind of expect and prepare for when you're travelling in Japan or living here. But it's okay, just bring something from home. So basically, everything here is adorable, the people are really nice, and I totally recommend it if you can eat the food definitely. I have an umbrella all thanks to the lovely, sweet, kind owner of this restaurant. Oh my god. When people do like something kind for me, it really like hits me in the heart. Like, especially when like they absolutely didn't have to and basically, this town... Everyone here has been so kind, and so nice, and so wonderful, like... This is probably one of the most gorgeous settings for a shrine and one of the most gorgeous shrines I've ever seen. The mountains in the back just make the shrine look absolutely heavenly. It is so beautiful here. Okay so I went and prayed here, and I also bought a little token just because I haven't been having the best luck and a little bit of luck would help me out a lot. And I got one for Duncan as well. I'm not really religious at all, or superstitious or anything like that but like, I don't know. I don't want to pass up some luck. Me and Rachel are gonna check out the park before we head back. This is the best little town ever. And we're just trying to figure out how to get into the park. We're right next to the park but not quite sure how to get in. Oh, but that fence doesn't go the whole way across, so that must be it. Tada! We'll go through there and end up in another world! Dunnn... Okay, but can I take Duncan with me? Rachel: Okay. Yeah, we better go pick up our husbands. Ooh, oh my god. A call... We've got to sing something... And the rocket's red glare. Rachel: Thanks. You're very patriotic. The bombs bursting in air! I went blue, after coming out of the tunnel I look blue now. Good job camera. We found a quaint little red bridge. This is the power spot that Rachel made. Rachel's filming a spider. She looks gleeful. This Yahiko journey has been amazing, it's been great to explore, but it has been raining all day and I'm starting to feel a little bit damp, so we're gonna head back to the station, head back to Tokyo, head back to my cats and my husband, and yeah... Bye-bye Yahiko. As you might have noticed, I went on this trip with a bunch of other awesome youtubers, I've linked them all in the description box down below, so take a look at their channels and remember to hit the subscribe button and like this video if you enjoyed it. Hopefully, I'll see you in my next video. Bye! You guys I have bag envy! I'm home. And there's my little Cinnamon. Hi Cinnamon, hi! Does it smell like Yahiko, Cinnamon? Hi, Latte. Duncan: It's the smell of young boys. Duncan: Look how he refuses to get off. Mimei: Yeah, no he's like, once he's on, he's on for like a long time I think. Boo! I hope that when I play this footage back, there's a ghost behind me.
