Basic passive voice

Our delicacies are baked  using extravagant amount of sweet and sour apples

Their sweet aroma  and flavor of apple overwhelm your mouth.

One of the top things to do  in Japan is a hot spring.

I'm not easily impressed. This is bloody impressed.

Real actual cider in Japan. Took me 4 years to find this.

I travelled to the most northern parts  of the island of Honshu to get it.

Feel a  bit like Indiana Jones  except, instead of going in search of a cup of Christ

I've gone in search of  real actual cider

which is probably better than a cup of Christ.

I only got this plastic cup to drink it as I'm in a cheap hotel

So we're here at Sendai station and we're about to get the bullet train.

One of the fastest bullet trains in Japan. It goes about 300km per hour

And I'm joined by my friend, Ryotaro who believes they can actually get cider in Japan.

I still don't believe it. After 4 years, I haven't seen anything.

The only cider that I've ever had in Japan has been imported.

What are you talking about? We have got a cider.

And anyway, we are going to a place, a land of apples.

And after that, we are visiting this awesome hot spring,

natural hot spring with natural water fall.

We haven't invented trains in the UK that can do this yet.

Aomori is the most northern prefecture of Japan's main island, Honshu.

It's a region famous for its fish, apples and ridiculous snow.

In fact, the city of Aomori has the highest levels of snow for any city in the world.

We weren't going all the way to Aomori just drink cider and relax in the hot spring.

-Have you met blacksmith? -No, I haven't met.

This is actually my first time as well. Like I haven't met blacksmith

It takes about 1 month to produce a sword from crumpled metal into a meticulous work of art.

Some of the more expensive sword costing up to 10,000.

This one here, it doesn't have a hand protecter.

People that actually fight every single day.

So they actually need this hand protecter  to protect themselves, right?

So it doesn't really protect your hand, right?

So these are the for  the people who don't go into the war.

Yeah, for instance, Shogun or the lords,and they got this cause they don't really go into the war field.

while the all the soldiers, they carry this one.

You're not tall enough to wield such a sword.

I think the pattern on this one is the most beautiful.

This is light enough actually, you can picture waving around

Although because it's not a wartime, we are not really allowed.

It's a bit disrespectful because the swords now are made for artistic purposes.

After visiting the sword smith, we went to a nearby town called Goshogawara

In traditional Japanese festivals, one of the most common attractions is the floats which you carry and pull through the festival,usually by dozens of people

but there is one festival in Aomori where things have gotten some more out of hand

where the floats are so huge. They are more like small buildings.

I'm not easily impressed. But this is pretty bloody impressive.

The floats are 23 meters high,  weight 19 tons and 60 people to carry.

So this is a 4 story building  so there are almost like 4 bridges.

It reminds me of a space shuttle. when the rockets come out of the building...

In August, on a festival day, these 3 giant floats go out of this building
