I love waterfalls!❤ I had to scroll back and watch them all. Wouldn't one love one of those pools in their back yard. Amazing scenery, Sandy's right, at every turn something beautiful. I am enjoying this adventure, thanks for letting us tag along. Safe travels and GOD bless

[@mandybrown7758]

What a beautiful place 😊

[@SandVan]

Thank you 😊🙏it was stunning

[@MoBangFoYoBucks]

Japan and Expensive go hand in hand! 😆 7 waterfalls 😱😎👍

[@SandVan]

Thanks Tim Tim😊🙏yes it does 😂🚐

[@mmwaashumslowww7167]

I was amazed that overnight sleeping was prohibited because those that do vanlife in Japan are clean and respectful. Those waterfalls were lovely and everything around looked a rich vibrant green. I would choose that country to live over the broken UK anytime.

[@SandVan]

Thank you 😊🙏they were hand made signs probably a disgruntled local 🚐🤦‍♂️

[@getawaygeese]

Your like a couple of turtles in those pools 😂
Looks like the same challenge we have with Google translate 😂

Thank you 😊🙏

[@chrisbentleywalkingandrambling]

Those waterfalls were amazing. Google Translate to the rescue. I'm glad you finally found somewhere to rest up. Those warm pools, are they naturally heated? You had the perfect Insta shot there that's for certain. Loved the episode, thanks for sharing.

[@SandVan]

Thank you Chris 😊🙏google was the saviour of the trip , yes they are geothermal pools

[@SandVan]

Thank you David 😊🙏some of the pools were far too hot for us 🥵

[@ms.kayak7seas]

Hi-ya, Sandy, and Tim
How would you like JP so far?
Tim is brave enough to drive narrow roads in JP. hahah so you have an international driver's license? I wonder how you are comfortable driving in JP.
wow Sky Bridge? I do like the mountain ridges in distance even though raining.
The Gatlinburg SkyBridge in Gatlinburg, Tennessee is about 512m and it has partially glass floor.
You don't believe huge guys could not walk on the glass floor and just returned.hahahaha Chicken out.
How lovely chasing waterfalls and enjoy hot spring after!
Are those waterfalls along the same river? Very fascinating...
Bravo to you....Outstanding filming on waterfalls and picturesque surroundings.
You nailed it capturing this beauty. I would love to dip in the hot spring and have a glass of cold white wine as enjoy looking at the waterfall. It is like a movie scene, isn't it?
some kind of Card expires on Sep, 2027
hahahah it says no overnight parking hahahah 13:41 They will contact authority...
Your translator is pretty much accurate...
I look forward to the next episode, Volcano exploration. Happy Weekend. Gooday, mate
