Hi Risa here 👋 from Japan living in the States 😊 I’m sure all of the sudden Risa is not such a rare name over there! I know it’s a challenge to live in a completely different country but glad you are enjoying the life there so far. Good luck!
Your family is so beautiful. Happy 1st birthday Noah, she is such a sweetheart . I recently had my first visit to Japan back in March and was not disappointed. Beautiful people, beautiful country, love the warm seats 🚽 😂😂 everywhere you go . Kamakura and Enoshima Island was a highlight of my trip. Looking forward to your next video 🇦🇺🐨
Oh that is so much fun that you guys made a visit to Japan! Even better that you had such a great time! We can understand why! We love Kamakura and hope to make it over to Enoshima Island to explore more! :) Thank you for the Happy Birthday wishes! for Noa. We are excited for you to see the next video too!
I am known for walls of text (grins), but today I am in a hurry - lucky you! So just short - the video awakened my desire for ice cream! Time really flies by; it is like yesterday to remember when you gave birth to Noa and now it is her first birthday. And how overwhelmed she seemed to be looking at the candle on her cake! So cute! And Willa is the perfect big sister. Keep having a good time in Japan, cu here next time!
Haha we are craving the ice cream already too!! We can't believe how fast time has come and gone. It's making us want to savor every moment. Willa is really the best big sis!! See you again next week. Thanks for watching. :)
What an interesting video, you visited some amazing sights. Willa is so confident and willing to try new experiences, its a delight to see and her reaction to the wonder of the waterfall brought tears to my eyes. How can Noa already be a year old?! Her delight on the boat trip shows she is going to enjoy adventures like her sister. Looks like your family had a blast!
I am so happy, seeing you guys with your family, exploring Japan. Enjoy! That is just such a great experience... Thanks for taking your followers with you. May I ask a question? As I am working in HR in Germany, I am curious to learn about how many vacation days Tanner's got per year? In Germany, when you work a 100 %, it is 30 days, which is a lot - I know. Plus bank holidays. Is there a difference between working in Japan vs Germany? Although I have never met you in person: I do feel a real emotional connection. ❤ Take care, you guys. Lots of love from Germany.
I must say, y'all make the most beautiful videos! Loved that your family came and enjoyed seeing all the beautiful sights and all the great life experiences! Give Noa a birthday hug 🎂🎈🥳! It does not seem like it has been a year since she was born. She is growing into a beautiful little lady. And oh my goodness, Wila is the expert food trier 😂❤. Thanks for sharing.
Happy Birthday, baby Noah, well not a baby anymore. Thank you for taking us along on this awesome trip. Stay safe all of you. Happy for you that your family is there !!!!
Really stunning landscape and yummy looking food. Your family looked so happy, made me smile just watching. There was a lot of snow 😮 Wish you all the best :)
It sure seems Risa's mother and sister initially were being diplomatic about their hotel rooms being 'interesting' but they were game and appeared to have enjoyed the rooms in spite of them being unlike US or European hotels. More importantly, it's great that Risa's parents, sister and your entire family got to soak in some of the coolest sights (and cuisines) in that part of Japan! What a treat for all- not just the unique locales but the fun bond the seven of you have being together! Happy 1st Birthday to Miss Noa! She sure had her fun and it's great to see her WALKING so confidently at such an age! Congratulations and thanks for sharing your latest ventures with us (and not just for the exquisite artistic shots)! P.S. I didn't know that Disney had a separate theme park from TokyoDisney to highlight the coast and sea in Japan! Amazing!
We loved spending a few weeks with them! Exploring more of the nature areas was sure amazing, and we're happy we had decent weather for the most part. We know, isn't she just growing up too fast? We can hardly believe it sometimes, but we love watching her grow. She's a tiny bundle of energy and happiness! Yes, Disney Sea is really impressive! We hear they are even opening up four new rides later this year. Definitely worth considering if you ever come to Japan.
That bridge and the waterfall are amazing.. It must feel a little bit claustrophobic in the tunnel to get to the platform..🤔 Golden Gate and Niagara Falls in very small..🤣
It really was so cool! If you do get claustrophobic then yeah it might have been a challenge, but thankfully you could bypass it a different way (the way we came out with the small suspension bridge).
Looks like a great family trip, and happy birthday Noa! Looking forward to seeing all the festivals return as this is the first full year back without any health restrictions. There's lots of lesser known festivals all over, and most festivals or events with "night light up" or "fire" in the name exceeded our expectations :-) On that note hopefully they'll hold the beach horse archery one again in Miura this year (it's called the Miura Dosun Festival Kasagake and held on Araihama Beach around May usually)
Thank you! Yes, it does remind us a bit of Crater Lake as well. Apparently it can become quite busy during the summer, so it was a fun experience having so much space to ourselves.
It's such a beautiful trip you made to the national park. And the food looks amazing, as always. Happy birthday little Noa. Did she get some presents ? Greetings from Germany 💓
Greetings to you in Germany!! Noa did get some presents! She actually received a little Tonie's box from Germany and she loves the little music! It's a fun way Willa is keeping on her Deutsch too. :)
So, uh...you went to all the areas I wanted to recommend to you...hmm. 😔 But yeah, Kamakura is _definitely_ a summer destination, especially when the greater Tokyo area turns into a frying pan crossed with a sauna. Well, that's the great thing about Tokyo, pick any direction and travel for two hours and you'll find great spots.
Haha that's funny! They are some of the popular places in the area we know. If you have any others, please don't hesitate to tell us. We are always open for more suggestions. :) We still need to make a visit to Enoshima Island so maybe we will head there after Golden Week is over to try and beat some of the major crowds! Thanks for the reminder about the location!
Sounds like the eggs you've been getting were onsen eggs. They're supposed to be the best eggs in the world. Some people only eat the yolk though, if the white is too runny. PS Happy Birthday Noa!
the only thing Americans know about Japan is: Sukyiaki ! An American founded a magazine about life Japan and guess what name he gave to this magazine ! How shallow populist!

Happy Birthday, Noa!!! All the landscapes and places you visited with your family look stunning! What a truly special time you got to spend together!
Thanks Arnika!! It was very special to have these memories with our family!
We miss you and hope you're doing well. :)
Eating icecream 🍦 all the time...🤣🤣🤣 Happy birthday 🎉 to Noa... Getting her some icecream, too...🤣
haha ALL THE TIME IS ICE CREAM TIME! ;) And thank you!! We definitely made sure she wasn't missing out on her birthday haha!

Aww this is so touching!! Our hearts were bursting when we saw her reaction to the waterfall as well!! The proudest parents!!

Beautiful video and stunning variety of adventures with your family. ❤ Happy 1st Birthday, Noa!! 🎉 Your girls are always smiling and laughing.
The girls have so much fun together that is for sure!! Thank you for watching! :)

Aww we will definitely give her a birthday hug!! We try and squeeze more time out of her because it truly is flying by so fast with her!! Thank you 💗😊
@@OurStorytoTell yes! Time is a thief for sure… I turned around and my “baby” is 25! Enjoy every moment with your girls ❤️
Happy Birthday, baby Noah, well not a baby anymore. Thank you for taking us along on this awesome trip. Stay safe all of you. Happy for you that your family is there !!!!
Aww thank you!! I know she is growing up way too fast!
@@OurStorytoTell 👍🏻😁

Fortunately, we didn't get stuck in the snow :). It was a lot of fun having them here! Thank you for the kind comment!

Just started watching🎉 Willa is so smart & Noa is absolutely adorable 🤗 Love your family travel vlogs🩷
Glad to have you here! Than you so much for the kind comments!
Beautiful family! Looks like you made great memories together!❤
Thank you! We did! 🤍
What a beautiful family enjoy every moment ❤
Thank you so much! We definitely did!

So sweet, thank you!
編集が上手くて良かった、ブタカフェはナイスチョイス、アイスクリーム食べ過ぎ笑、ようこそ日本へ楽しんで下さい
What a waterfall!😱🤩
We thought it would be good, but we didn’t realized THAT good!
Looks like a great family trip, and happy birthday Noa!

Thank you! Wow, beach horse archery?... Sounds interesting and challenging! We'll have to look into it.
Happy birthday little Noa 🎂🎁🎉 Such a beautiful family
Thank you!! 🫶
Happy Birthday, Noa! Some beautiful scenery - Mount Haruna (?) reminded me a little of Crater Lake.
Thank you! Yes, it does remind us a bit of Crater Lake as well. Apparently it can become quite busy during the summer, so it was a fun experience having so much space to ourselves.
今日、袋田の滝いってきました！！😄😄😄
NO WAY!! Haha that's crazy timing! :) It means so much that you're watching our videos here in Japan! Thank you!
Breath taking video the views wauw 🤩 . Noa having her Birthday what a special country for it 🥰
1歳くらいかな？弟くん…めっちゃめちゃ可愛い～😊
Thank you!! :)
Das ist richtig toll, die Videos von euch! Hab euch sehr lieb
Aww thanks so much for watching!
Japan may offer valuable insights for you and your children's future.

Great video. What was the average you spend on meals for a family of two for 5 days in Japan who take taxis vs public transport?
poor noah looks very angry because nobody gave her ice o creamo
Hahaha don't worry, she definitely got her feel of ice cream on her birthday!! :)

Who is this black girl?
Risa's younger sister!
