What do we have here Sarah?
-
My favorite color. Your favorite color, huh?!
-
Oh, pretty! Oh my goodness!
-
Look how long it is!
-
Wow! Oh my stars!
-
Look at that!
-
It goes all the way down there and it starts way down here.
-
OK, let's go.
-
[Life in Japan Theme Song]
-
We've come to Kabokuen Park in Ome city to check out a big roller slide.
-
This thing is absolutely ginormous.
-
It goes all the way down there from all the way up here.
-
Do you see that sign? It's 211 meters!
-
211 meters? OK.
-
Holy cow!
-
Alright, you guys ready?
-
Let's go!
-
You guys are faster than me!
-
Daddy are you ok?
-
Yeah! It's too slow, I don't have a sled.
-
Our family loves a good roller slide, and Japan is full of them.
-
Today we're on a mission to go try Japan's longest roller slide,
-
but before we go there we're stopping by to try this impressive slide along the way.
-
It's a ways up you have to go.
-
If you want to ride the ride, you have to pay the price.
-
I've got daddy's phone. Now I'm going to show you how it feels like being a kid.
-
Here comes Becca, she's been filming!
-
Alright Becca!
-
OK, this time I have a sled. We'll see if that helps, huh Becca?
-
It's so narrow! Is he going to do it?
-
Here goes nothing Becca... oh yeah, this is better already.
-
I do have to push myself along though.
-
Speed speed! More speed! No!
-
This is a work out.
-
I have to pull with one hand.
-
There's Ben and Izzy yeah!
-
Oh what happened, Daddy?
-
Daddy, do you need a little push?
-
Oh my goodness, it's so slow for me honey!
-
This is the funniest video — ever.
-
OK It did not work.
-
Oh! I got out. Bye bye!
-
Now Daddy's not in the way.
-
There's Izzy! Hi Izzy!
-
So, was that fun? Was it a lot of work?
-
That was a lot of work and a great massage on the...body.
-
Long but never too fast, the roller slide at Kabokuen Park is perfect for kids of all sizes.
-
Our kids had a blast there! The adults did too!
-
Here's the last slide of the morning!
-
Here they come! The big finish!
-
Whoa!
-
Ok we're going to the biggest Azalea place in all of Tokyo, from what I understand
-
It's right on the way to Japan's biggest roller slide.
-
Going on up.
-
Look at the super old roof.
-
There's like grass growing on it and everything.
-
There's grass growing on the roof!
-
It's like Zelda.
-
I think we found the place—look at this!
-
Hey Joshua come, let's take a picture right here.
-
Yeah, that's a good place for a picture!
-
There is a lot of colors here, my goodness!
-
I will disappear.
-
Disappear into the azaleas? Ah!
-
Becca and Anna come... Oh, we're going to take a picture.
-
All close to Becca. All close to Becca.
-
One—I can't see Joshua— One, Two— smile though
-
Hiking up the mountain.
-
A bee?! [screams]
-
That was a little excessive!
-
We're almost there. It's nice and cool over here.
-
It is, it's in the shade.
-
You can see Mt Fuji over there, guys.
-
This is the moment we've been waiting for: the downhill walk.
-
Today this is where we came.
-
Wow! Of course filming, huh, with Life in Japan having fun in the sun!
-
What are you going to do for crazy hair day dude? Nothing.
-
You're not? Nothing, he says "nothing."
-
I know what I'm going to do but I'm not going to tell you.
-
Oh, ok! I'm going to do a secret.
-
Do you... oh, are you tired Izzy?! Ok, let's get to the car.
-
We found the bell making all the noise.
-
Now it's time to find a bite to eat.
-
Get one. One for us and Uncle Ben will pick his.
-
What's it like guys, let's see! It's sweet, it's got sugar on it.
-
It's got sugar on it? And salt? It's sugar.
-
After a fun time seeing the Azaleas at Shiofune Kannon-ji,
-
we headed another hour up the Tama River way up into the mountains.
-
Here in the village of Tabayama is Japan's biggest roller slide, 247 meters in length!
-
Here we go!
-
So this place is serious.
-
They give you a sled and gloves that you have to use.
-
For braking
-
OK, we're going to go on up. Here we go!
-
Well Ben, this looks legit, man!
-
It's legit!
-
It's a good long walk up.
-
Did we make it to the top? Oh, no not yet.
-
Here comes momma-chan. Momma chan!
-
You go under this bridge and then go around. Whoa!
-
My goodness!
-
This is a castle here? We're going to take off from a castle?
-
We are up above Tabayama. What a beautiful place, huh?
-
What a beautiful place...for a big slide, huh?
-
Gorgeous day!
-
You ready? You holding on?
-
Hold on! Ok!
-
Is it pretty cool? Yeah?
-
Let's pull. We gotta pull through this part.
-
It's about to go fast. Are you ready? Yeah.
-
OK, here we go!
-
Here we go, here we go, here we go!
-
Oh, here's the end, are you ready?
-
Alright Dude! What did you think? Cool!
-
Was that so cool? I want to try it one more time.
-
Yeah, let's do it again.
-
Dude, that was awesome! That was so cool!
-
We've got one ride under our belt
-
Which means we're going to try it again and do a massive chain with all of us together.
-
They say that's the best way to do it for the best speeds, the most amount of fun,
-
Adrenaline up to 10!
-
Here come the troopers trooping up the hill.
-
Barely! You barely made it to the top? But you made it!
-
Yes! Gotta take a break before we go?
-
Ben's there — he's in front of us.
-
And behind us everybody's getting lined up...
-
This is going to be crazy.
-
Whoa, it's nice on those parts, huh?
-
Whoa!
-
Oh, they got disconnected!
-
They got disconnected, come on guys!
-
Here we go!
-
Here it comes, the big drop!
-
Well we tried to do a big slide with all of us together
-
But it didn't work, we all got separated.
-
Our 4th time up... Our 5th time
-
Your fifth time!
-
We're a little slower this time, I think this is going to be it.
-
No! No?!
-
We're going... we're getting there... let's keep going!
-
We got this... We got this is right!
-
We got this is right!
-
Ok Reutter family — alright, you ready to do this?
-
Yes! It's a good run, it's a good run, we're still moving!
-
I know, we haven't stopped yet!
-
This is the slow part...
-
Here we go, hold on. Joshua, hold on tight to Daddy.
-
Hold on to Daddy, here we go!
