it is about 4:30 in the morning right
now and we have just arrived you guys
are gonna have no trouble understanding
why we drove a couple hundred kilometers
and woke up at 4:30 in the morning when
I show you
[Music]
hey guys and welcome to day three I
believe of our road trip adventure in
the last episode we got to see some of
the most realistic and almost terrifying
stone statues I haven't ever seen and
today well today we're doing a bit of
nature but it's gonna start with a
little bit of a road trip that doesn't
really make much sense considering this
this whole thing is the road from hey
we're gonna drive let's go drive alright
did the water boil well so in case
you're not completely caught up on the
storyline me and Victor here
learned a little bit of a road trip and
needless to say it's been pretty crazy
so far today the road trip continues but
not when I was coffee first and actually
before we do that I did bring my own
coffee grounds as well as I do the
coffee allow me to explain today's goal
is to find something that cannot be
easily found one of those things we
might be out of season for so I'm not
gonna put my hopes too high in that one
we might get lucky but the other one the
other one is the location a location
that we think we've found it's not even
a famous location or anything like that
it's just a location that we both really
want to go to we just spend half an hour
in the car double-checking that we're
sure we know where it is but the
information available oh there's very
big because it's not a main or famous
buy a coffee cup let me just make coffee
I don't know about your country they
don't think they have them in mind in
Japan they have these little one cup
pour over coffees it's just got the
coffee grounds right inside there you
just do it just like drip coffees pour
that right in there thank you sir
thanks for bringing this stove by the
way you do I die I get will we do
shares with coffee now where we are
right now there's absolutely no cell
reception if we're just gonna kick back
have some coffee and
get back on the road all right I think
we have pretty much everything we've
ever owned charging here right now
pretty much we're back on the road the
driving has actually been a lot of fun
we get to see so many things I think
among my favorite our beautiful
beautiful rice fields that we got to
drive through and there was like
literally no reason to even drive
through them either there isn't nice
rice fields gorgeous countryside sunset
it was nice
okay all right I'm sure we're gonna have
plenty of that today as well up before
night hits we got to get a little closer
to our destination
[Music]
I love the winding mountain roads of
Japan you know one of the goals for this
entire thing is create the sense of
adventure within ourselves and that's
one of the reasons why I'm really
excited of a native journey because we
don't even know if we the only
documentation that we've been able to
find upon the place that we're going it
was unclear at best solved
all right so we have turned on to the
road or heading them up a mountain now
we're gonna spin a scout out the area
where we're going right now
and then we're gonna go on a little mini
side adventure we are all right we have
arrived we found it by the way we found
it I kind of want to hold off until
morning when you have that like morning
foggy atmosphere you look for now
[Music]
waterfalls waterfalls never disappoint
and this seems to be somewhat of a a
hiking trail here so I've left Viktor
behind at the moment and have very much
braving this
[Music]
lots of spiderwebs
but this just seems to keep going for a
while and I've really left Viktor far
behind down there so I'm gonna head back
all right so it's really dark but we've
come out here in the hopes of seeing
fireflies I really want to see some fire
fly they think Viktor you think we're
gonna get fireflies better after this I
know oh boy it was a drive wow this is
this is like dark can we I can
illuminate this tunnel at all Wow all
right I don't know if I'm gonna be able
to capture it you guys we got fireflies
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
the fireflies were beautiful it is about
4:30 in the morning right now and we
have just arrived an hour long sought
after destination you guys are gonna
have no trouble understanding why we
drove a couple hundred kilometers and
woke up at 4:30 in the morning when I
show you this right here
[Music]
I wanted to bring you out to this place
today because this is one of those
places that just screams with the
Japanese aesthetic and it's also one of
those places that isn't very easily
accessible even if you do live in Japan
but in the case that you are in Japan or
coming to Japan I'm gonna do you a solid
and leave the location in the
description box because this place was
admittedly a little bit of a challenge
oh yeah and I would be remiss to come
all the way out here and not climb the
stairs so are you are you up for it yeah
it's a lot of stairs but no half
measures so if you're wondering why
Victor is so opposed to stairs it's
because just like two days ago we did
one of Japan's deepest train stations
dawai station and I don't think we
talked about it in the video but we
actually went up and down those stairs
that's creepy the corpse of a crab what
I get the river is down there see this
is what happens when you climb stairs
[Music]
forgetting that I did a 20 kilometer
hike the day before about my people the
face you will not have to pace yourself
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
ah
[Music]
moderately anti-climactic yeah but in
all fairness I mean this place was all
about the view from down there yeah it
and it was good to remember that random
hiking trail from yesterday yeah I think
it actually does go from the waterfalls
to here oh wow which I found one of my
favorite parts of this whole shrine
it's the pigeons like no no fancy
dragons nothing like that no I got
pigeons up there it's up pigeon
it will all stare shenanigans aside that
was a genuinely enjoyable shrine yes
would you guys believe that it is like
9:30 in the morning and we somehow spent
is that five hours
oh wait no yeah five hours how do we
spend five hours here photography and
the rain has really started to come down
you know come to think of it I think we
drove something like three four hundred
kilometres just to get to this would you
ever do that would you drive like three
four hundred kilometres just to come out
and see a shrine like this you can get
some pictures I felt was worth it I
think that's it let me know down below
also also mean the world to me if you
would give that like button some love it
is time for us to hit the road again off
to our next adventure but I guess
that'll be the next video you guys know
I'll be hanging out with you down in the
comments I will see you again real soon
[Music]
