Adriana is about to be attacked by a cat.
She has no idea
Who's your friend?
What friend?
The friend behind you
Oh my god
What is going on Members of the Barrio
It's Jon, coming to you from Takamatsu, Japan
And we are on the smallest of the 4 major islands
In this country
Shikoku
This island is the least explored
And it's the least populated, which to me made it the perfect spot to make a couple of videos
And I'm going to be showing you guys a really cool cheap activity
You can do from here..
We're going to be island hopping to two different spots
By ferry
And I think it's going to be a very very cool day
We've bought two one-way tickets to Megijima.
You have to buy one-way tickets to each island you hop to
It's just the way it works here
370 yen each
Guys the boat is coming
It's right there
We should run
Let's go
Let's run
Our first stop is going to be Megijima
Which is a small island about 20 minutes from Takamatsu
This honestly felt more like a cargo ship
Than a passenger ferry
Not a whole lot of people on here
So i'm hoping we have a lot of this island
To ourselves
I love these chairs
They look like the hospitals in Mexico
The waiting rooms
In the public hospitals
We've made it to Megijima
And we are taking a bus to an ogre cave
And that's going to make a lot more sense
In a few minutes
This is by far the most rural part of Japan That we have seen so far
We've mostly been in big cities
This is kind of a relief
Just to take this old rickety school bus
To the highest point..of the mountain
To see this ogre cave.
Let me explain what's going on
We are walking to Onigishima Cave
And this is very famous from the Japanese legend called Momotaro
Where a little boy comes to this very island
And battles the resident ogres
Who lived in this cave
So..let's go see what these ogres look like
Before I trip on these stairs
Adriana you are to tall for this cave I think
We're starting this Ogre cave tour
Walking like this
Reminds me of my caving days in Ireland
I wonder when we are going to find the ogres
We already saw a few outside
I know they're hiding here somewhere
That is one mean ogre
Look at those fangs out right
The kid from the legend absolutely schooled these ogres
And his animal friends were in on it to
This monkey is fierce
It kind of looks like a fruit loop
Bye guys
High five
High-five
I thought the cave was a little bit interesting
Although i'm not to familiar with this whole legend of Momotaro
I think that..if you're Japanese you would appreciate
The Ogres and the little boy running around fighthing them
A little bit more than we did perhaps
We are going to check out
This really cool view point
Right in front of us
That is Ogijima
Right there
Our next stop
Back to the school bus we go
We're heading.. to the fery terminal
We made it
That was definitley one of the stranger tourist attractions we've been to
On this Japan trip
I don't know what other word to describe it
We had 1 hour to kill..
Adriana is about to be attacked by a cat
She has no idea
Who's your friend?
What friend?
No..
The friend behind you
Oh my god
240 yen each ticket
To go to .. Ogijima
Our next stop on this island hopping tour
We've just step foot onto Ogijima
And we had a fear that because
This is one of the smallest islands in the area
That there would be no food
But we already see two different restaurants
We are starving
We're going to try to get something to eat
We ordered some rice and curry for about.. 4 dollars and fifty cents
I think a pretty good deal
Quite a bit of food here
Japan is the first country i've been to
Where you can get.. a hot coffee
From a vending machine
There's nothing like it
We are going to be hiking from here
To the famous Ogijima Lighthouse
At the top of the island
Should take about 30 minutes
Are you enjoying your hot coffee?
From the vending machine
Yes guys
And it's actually good
I'm surprised
We started the two kilometer hike and we're going uphill
Right through a village
So..
I'm kind of glad we didn't rent bikes
You can.. but
You have to do a lot of uphill peddling to start
I guess that decision is kind of up to you
Look at this guys
Please look at this
Look at the water
You can see everything
It's so clear
This is an absolutely beautiful hike
So far
And the road has become a lot more stable
It's been pretty leisurely.. the views are great
We're both excited to check out the lighthouse..and I want to fly my drone
Pretty badly
It's been a while
This is just the second time I've been able to fly my drone
In three weeks in Japan
We're going to have some fun with this
Members of the Barrio
You have to come to Shikoku if you want to get off the beaten-path in Japan
We got to hang out at Megijima and Ogijima
We hardly saw any other tourists here
We were just wandering around the villages
Walking along the coast
Checking out a cool light house like this one
It's something you need to do
If you're spending a long period of time
In Japan Just to get away
From the big cities
Alright make sure to subscribe to this channel if you are new
