I figured I've shown you a lot of northern Japan recently, so it was time to head down.

So So I'm actually on a camping trip.

For the next three days, I will be camping out at Lodge Kyo cholera, which is located in the beautiful city of Bongo Onel down the south in Oita Prefecture.

The coolest thing about the campsite that I'm staying in is my room is in a little tree house.

It's so cool.

Tutta, This is where I'll be staying.

This little staircase leading up to the hatch and you enter through a hatch.

How neat is the And it looks like they've You've not lights and an air conditioner.

This is so cute and close.

My little Hotch, this is like my dream getaway.

I find places like this so relaxing.

We are pretty far out into the naka, the Japanese countryside.

I rode on a local train from Oita Station for about 45 minutes to get to where we are now.

It was such a cool ride.

The train had windows at the front as well.

So you got a really nice panoramic view of the whole area as you're riding the train through the little countryside towns, and it was just so beautiful.

I felt like I was in a G B movie.

It was so peaceful and relaxing.

The plan for tonight is just tow chill.

Get settled into my little tree house here, and I'm gonna go meet the stuff 5 30 for dinner in the restaurant area.

Might be wondering why I'm camping in the middle of winter, but it's actually still pretty warm here.

It's the evening already, and it's 12 degrees, and tomorrow we're going up to a high of 18 and 19 on Wednesday.

So, honestly, it feels like a Canadian summer.

And to me, this is perfect camping weather.

This one's perfect.

Like it's it's just coming out of its shell right now, so it's it's, uh, it's detached from its base, so this one is gonna taste delicious, gives a little wiggle.

Oh, it's a tough boy.

Oh, there we go.

No way.

So normally you would reserve a spot for you and your friends who have you come camping with.

But because I'm here alone, the staff have been nice enough to join me today we have such a feast here.

Wait to try everything.

Everything is local.

That's so cool way.

Theo, I think that was the best barbecue I've ever had.

Were stuffed way.

Aren't the staff here so nice?

I love them so much.

It was really cool them to eat dinner with me.

And tomorrow they're actually gonna show me on the area.

Looking forward to that, it's gonna be really cool day tomorrow, So I better head to bed and I will see you guys in the morning tonight.

Good morning.

You guys discuss and down from my tree hosts.

I had a really nice sleep in there.

It was super comfy.

L'Echo cozy.

It is like the small size of it.

We're up bright and early this morning, uh, gonna have some breakfast, and then we're gonna head out.

Remember how I was talking about how the weather is still warm here?

It's about 21 degrees this afternoon.

That's insane.

That's like summer.

We're so lucky.

Perfect.

Camping weather.

Everybody's up.

Get Hi.

No, you she wasa good with you.

So cool the dining area.

They can open up the blind seer.

But you're right, because There's nothing in the middle.

So Monju has, like, you know what?

Whatever it is, it's like a beef in the middle.

Or if it's red bean paste, the middle or uncle.

So this has nothing in it.

It's kind of like a long tradition inside that's made with rice husk.

So it's like it has a little bit of sweetness to it, which is really nice.

He goes really well with everything you today pumpkin and Kabul Jam Couples is kind of like a lime, but sweeter.

Well, that's good.

Yum!

We have a bunch of likes.

You guys kind of explode City?

No, really, It's like these are electric bikes, so there's a couple here pills around here, so it's super easy.

Go pills.

You never wrote one before this, like heaven let me take you guys down to the river before we leave on our adventures.

Today, it's so pretty of so bub but not quite warm enough to go swimming.

It's near the shore.

There's a shallow area, but apparently the deep blue party see over there goes up to three meters.

It's pretty deep.

Could actually dio a proper swim down the middle of the river.

How nice would that be?

I think actually, we're going to take a boat out on the river later slots.

Cool.

I'm glad we get to d'oh some water activities.

This is the tent sauna.

I'm really excited for this.

Last night the guys were telling me that they like to go on the sauna, get really hot, the dip into the river even now, even in the fall.

And then they get back in the sauna and they repeat that three times.

And they say it really like, cleanses your body and makes it really easy to sleep.

So they like doing it in the evening.

I don't know if I'm brave enough to take a dip in the river at night.

Time in the fall might be a little cold, but I'm looking forward to trying the sauna later.

So we're traveling by car to get to the area we're going today.

But if you guys use the electric bikes that they have available, you could get there in about an hour and 1/2.

And it's such a beautiful area that you want to bite through it.

If we had time, I would love to bike it.

The weather is so nice and the views are just amazing.

The village were driving through now is called Ogata.

And apparently it was chosen as one of the 100 most beautiful villages in Japan.

It just feels like you back in time.

All the houses, they're really old.

They're well taken care of.

I love old Japanese houses.

Riding a bike through here would just be amazing.

We've come to see the Niagara Falls of Japan.

I've actually never seen the actual diagram.

Oh, what a cool bridge.

You walk this way.

So beautiful, you know, with like back in the day that you used to, like, jump off the waterfalls.

But there's a couple deaths and that's why they stop it down.

Even just like rocks.

You're the near the base there's gonna get like jump Lord.

Oh, there you go.

So this is this is by far my favorite spot.

It's kind of what made me fall in love with this place.

When I it feels kind of look, you know what?

This is pretty much what it's like.

This is very much 100 years ago.

There's still a gees.

I hear those air like the flowers that bloom during rainy season, just like which ended months ago.

Crazy.

A different climate is from a port I am and you with it.

It's kind of scary.

No, we're taking a little hike along.

A walking course would get some exercise in.

The weather is so good, I was saying, Really, it was too cold to swim.

It's not too cold to swim.

I could go in the river right now.

So as we're walking, you can see so many bamboo trees around like they're huge everywhere.

Alex was just telling us that there's a festival coming up in a week.

It's too bad we just miss.

It's called Chico Doc 50,000 bamboo stalks and they cut them on an angle.

So looks really cool.

They put candles inside them and they put them throughout.

The city looks really nice, so our hike ended here at this beautiful park.

You just to park.

And it's famous for maple leaves, and they're actually all changing color now.

We came at the perfect time.

It's so gorgeous.

There's so many people sitting around the lake here having a picnic.

This is my bento of choice, the tofu hamburger rice and some Pickles club.

So you guys remember we were drinking sake with dinner last night?

We've actually had the chance to stop by the place that makes it what they care about the causes.

A little kiss up.

That's because it is the second the second King Cobra for their emergency need.

He has to buy your stupid show, Michael Working the second That's me.

It's our caused a machine called the which made miso sundown.

Can you get it?

It's coming.

They coming or whatever At the candy, he gets a grade a second.

I've got a really nice shop where you can purchase all the different kinds of sake that they make.

And I was really surprised to see this.

They saw a sucky cake.

It's a roll cake made with sucker.

It's interesting, it idea, because a much the booth we're getting ready to go in the raft slice.

You call them down the river.

Oh, there's a waterfall there.

Now I can see why you guys do it.

I thought you were crazy at first, but pretty hot.

Now let's eat dinner.

I'm gonna miss the food here.

Everything I've eaten on this trip.

After dinner we stopped by Ho Shou ji Temple Thio, Check out their annual light up display.

This is probably one of the most beautiful temples I've ever been to.

With such a need experience to get to explored at night time, I highly recommend it if you find yourself in Boom, go Ono during the autumn season.
