including everyone testing negative for COVID 3 times and installing apps on our phones that track our positions.

今度は自宅での2週間隔離

Now we are required to stay at home for 2 weeks before resuming normal life here in Japan.

ライター家の隔離の始まりです！

What is it?! Should Mommy open it?!

- 何それ？ - 開けるわよ

We'll see what it is, it might be my groceries.

食料品かしら

Might not be.

違うかも

Yes, we're back home here in Japan! And now have 2 weeks of quarantine.

帰国しました！ 2週間の隔離中です

Look at this hair, I need to cut this!

髪を切らないと

Our food has been delivered, right to our door.

食料の配達です

And Momma-chan, are you making lunch?!

ママちゃん お昼の準備？

Yes, at 9 AM, but we are hungry!

まだ9時だけど お腹空いたわ！

Yummy, yummy, yummy! Lunchtime at 9 in the morning!

美味しそう！ 9時だけどお昼ご飯

Before we left for America we put together a Lego Mario

アメリカ帰国前にレゴを組立てました

And now that we're back we're putting together the biggest Lego Mario that there is at the moment

新しいパーツを組立てて ドッキングさせます！

And Joshua paid for it!

ジョシュアが買った

That's right! Joshua paid for it. How much was it?

そうだね

¥10,000

1万円

Joshua paid for it with the money he... I got ¥10,000!

ジョシュアが買ったんだよね

Number 1! Whoa, look at it! We have 11—

- ナンバー1！ - 11袋あるね！

11, was it 11 different packages? Yeah, 11.

11袋に分かれているね

This thing is huge, huh?!

大きそうだ

OK, and so it begins.

はじめよう！

There it is - tap it. Yeah!

タップします

And 3, 2, 1 [snap]

3・2・1！

The kids all received money from their grandparents when they were back in the States,

子供達はおじいちゃん達から お小遣いをもらいました

so Joshua decided he wanted to buy the Lego set of his dreams: Bowser's Castle.

ジョシュアはお小遣いで クッパの城を購入しました

It was the perfect project for quarantine, but we miscalculated how long it would take to finish.

2週間かかると思っていましたが 誤算でした

Yeah, there's all the pieces that we finished... Number 4!

だいぶ出来たね それは4番？

OK Joshua, we got this one together, let's see what does Mario do?

組みあがったね マリオはどうするのかな？

Yeah! There you go!

やった！

Look at this! Turn it! Show how it works, Becca! Isn't that awesome?

- これ見て！ - 回してみて！ すごいね ベッカ！

OK, I think we're building King Boo now.

キングテレサだね

We are because King Boo is really white.

キングテレサは真っ白！

And then he's going to go on top of this...

この上にいるのかな？

Yeah, he's going to go right here and hang off.

そう！ここに来る！

OK, King Boo is up on his stand, and Joshua, you're the Mario guy.

キングテレサが来たね ジョシュアがマリオ

Got like a drawbridge that we're building on

跳ね橋が出来ました

Meanwhile, Momma chan was busy downstairs with another huge task: unpacking.

ママちゃんは1階で 荷物の片付けの最中です

She was working, but now... I'm all unpacked.

- お疲れ様！ - 全部開けたわよ…

You're all unpacked?! All the suitcases are put away.

- 全部？！ - スーツケースは全部

What?!! Wow! You were productive!

すごい！ 速かったね

Well, back to Mario!

マリオに戻りましょう！

We have two more after we open number 9. Everything is really coming together!

- 9番の次はこの2つ - 形になってきたね

With some really cool—like this is going to spin and hit those things. Yeah

回転するパーツもあるし カッコいいね！

We are getting close to the finish!

もうすぐ完成！

Look at that, number 10! Do the honors

次は10番！

He's looking mean! This Bowser machine is looking mean!

クッパのマシンは意地悪そう！

We're getting close to the end! Becca is putting together what we assume is the shell.

もうすぐ完成です！ ベッカが最後の部品を組み立てています

There! Did you get it?

出来た！

Got it!

見て！

Our massive construction project was nearly complete, and it was only day 1 of quarantine!

隔離初日にして 巨大レゴは完成しました！

And now it's time— this hair is just crazy, out-of-control big

髪がボサボサなので 切らないといけません

I've been looking forward to this: time to cut the hair.

散髪の時間です！

I've got a home cutting kit like this and I love it.

愛用の家庭用散髪キットです

There it is! All cut, shaved, nice and clean.

髪と髭を切ります！

It sure does look nice outside. It sure does look nice.

外はとても気持ちよさそうです

It's popcorn time with the new Stir Crazy — we've been needing one!

アメリカで買ったマシンで ポップコーンを作るよ！

It's the Bowser Lego Mario set, you've been wanting this for a long time,

ずっと欲しかったクッパの城が 完成しました！

And now Mario is going to take to the level — here we go!

マリオが出発します！

First, he gets rid of the fireball at the entrance!

火の玉を消します！

Yes! Oh!

上手！

Then he jumps over. Oh good, he's getting rid of all the enemies and the fireballs

障害物を飛び越えて 敵と火の玉をやっつけます！

Whoops! That one got away!

逃げた！

It takes a little extra work to get that one.

手間取りそうですが

But Joshua makes quick work of it.

ジョシュアは素早い！

Oh- then we go here

向こうに行きます

There's an extra time meter

タイムメーターです

Oh, he goes over there

向こうに飛んで

He got coins? He got a star! Oh that's perfect, he can take on King Boo.

コインを手に入れた？ 次はキングテレサです！

Here he goes, taking out King Boo!

キングテレサを連れて行きます！

Alright- oh yes!

すごい！

Oh, we're at the last level. We got Bowser Jr out of the way

ラストステージです クッパジュニアがいます

Now, there comes Bowser! Oh!

クッパが来ました！

Come on Mario, work it, work it!

マリオ 頑張れ！

Oh boy, ten hits!

すごい！10ヒット！

Oh good, and he finishes the level!

クリアです！

Mario number one! Whoa Dude, awesome!

- マリオが一番！ - ジョシュア すごい！

One day down, thirteen to go.

< 隔離 2日目 ・ 残り 13日 >

Last night Joshua and I got to bed about 7:30 PM, we really did well.

ジョシュアと私は 夜7時半に寝て 熟睡できました

But the girls went to bed at like 5:00PM, 5:30PM, 6:00 PM, so they've been up for a while.

娘達はもっと早く寝たので 早起きしているみたいです

Let's see just how long.

様子を見てみましょう

Well hello ladies!

おはよう みんな！

Good morning! How long have you been up? From 1 AM

- いつから起きてる？ - 午前1時

From 1?! 1-ish

- 1時から - だいたい

1-ish AM!

だいたい1時？

Sarah and I slept earlier than Anna

サラと私は アナより早く寝たわ

Yeah- And Daddy and Anna?

その後 パパとアナ？

And Daddy and Joshua.

パパとジョシュア

So Ruth and Becca went back to bed and look who came up then...

ルースとベッカが寝た後 ジョシュアが起きました

Right? When they went to bed, Joshua got up.

ママが寝たとき ジョシュアが起きたね

Oh! You're a pro now, Dude.

すっかりプロだね！

Yeah, and then you can do this.

これも出来るよ

I'm going to do it like that.

もっとやってみる！

It's day 2 of being back, and the kids are back busy doing homework now, getting ready to go back to school in a little less than 2 weeks.

隔離2日目 子供達は学校に戻る準備をしています

Back to school work, good job, guys!

宿題 偉いね！

OK, at 9 in the morning you leave your house...

朝の9時に家を出発して

At one in the afternoon (speaks Japanese) you came back.

午後の1時に帰って来ました

So from the time you left, to the time you came home, how long was that?

出発して帰るまで 何時間かかった？

Well the kids have 2 weeks before they can go back to school,

登校できるまで 2週間ありますが

But because of Corona, the start of school has been pushed back and they only have half days

コロナの影響で 地元の学校は半日授業なので

So fortunately our kids are not missing much school because of our trip.

子供達はすぐ授業に追いつけるでしょう

Yeah, homework! No! Homework!

- 楽しい宿題！ - いやだ

Even Bowser had to do homework, I'm sure.

クッパも学校で宿題したはず

No. No?

うそ？！

His homework is to play.

クッパの宿題は遊ぶこと

No, no, I think Bowser doesn't do his homework because he's a bad boy.

クッパは悪い子だから 宿題はしないと思う！

That's right, he's bad so he didn't do his homework.

そうだね！

I bet Mario did his homework though.

マリオはきっと宿題したよ

He helps Peach! That's right!

- マリオはピーチを助ける！ - そうだね！

Ah, thank you Mario!

マリオ ありがとう！

And I think Bowser Jr did it a little bit because he's a little better than his dad.

クッパジュニアは お父さんよりは宿題したかも

So have you got your call yet today?

連絡来た？

Hmm, not yet.

まだよ

But they call me everyday with a FaceTime call

当局の人が 毎日 FaceTime で

So I have to show them all four kids and show them that I'm in my house

子供全員と私達が家にいるのを 動画で確認するの

But they change the time of the call, so I never know quite when it's going to be...

でも 連絡時間が変更になったの

But it's everyday.

毎日連絡が来るわ

Not only do we receive video calls, but we have to report our health condition each day,

ビデオ電話だけでなく 毎日アプリで健康状態を報告します

filling out a survey and reporting our location at random times throughout the day.

一日に複数回 現在地を報告する必要もあります

They want to make sure you are COVID free and staying home!

安全を確保する為に大事です！

Day 3 quarantine — we're starting to get a little more bored now.

隔離3日目 少し退屈しています

Right Joshua? Even Joshua came up with a song

ジョシュアはどう？

I don't know / I don't know / I don't know what to do, oh no

♪ 何したらいいの？ 分からない！ ♪

Oh no no / Oh no no / Yeah ha!

♪ オーノー！ ♪

Are you guys watching Paz Kids? Yes

- パス・キッズを見てる？ - うん

We keep busy by exploring all the different ways there are to have fun while stuck at home.

家で出来そうなことに とにかく挑戦しています！

Did you reset Animal Crossing? Yes

- "どうぶつの森" をリセットした？ - うん

Anna, I think that other hair is best. Oh, how cute!

別の髪型がいいと思う！

This is Joshua

これはジョシュア！

Soon we received some news that was very good for us, even if the girls weren't so excited…

子供達はうれしくなさそうですが 良いニュースもあります

We're going to do online — but it's only one class.

1科目だけ授業がオンラインになった

It's only one class online.

1科目だけ

OK, so they have the option of doing just online class until the 10th! That's awesome!

10日までオンライン授業だけでもいいみたい！

It's only one class...

1科目だけ

It's only one hour, but you have homework.

宿題もあるわよ

Yeah, I already know what my homework is, the teacher told me.

宿題なら分かってる

Ok, it might be different, because they weren't planning on doing just online, everything has changed.

状況が変わったから 内容も変わるかもしれないでしょ

So don't assume you know everything, ok?

全部分かったつもりにならないで

I think I do!

分かってるもん！

I think you don't yet!

分かってないでしょ

Mother knows best!

お母様は全部お見通し！

No- it's "Mother knows best!"

ラプンツェルの曲！

On Rapunzel! Remember that song! But let me tell you what!

でも知ってる？

I have the best friends...

親友がいるの

Seki Yoshiko san is helping me so much!

セキさんが 日本語を助けてくれるの！

And I'm helping Mommy... Thank you Yoshiko san!

ヨシコさん ありがとう！

And I'm helping Mommy translate, oh!

私も手伝ってるよ！

What's going on here?

どうした？

Getting online, but there's only 5 people, no, 4 kids waiting,

オンライン授業 まだ5人しか来ていない

Nobody's showing their face, so I'm just playing the piano.

誰も顔を見せてないから ピアノを弾いてた

Oh, you're waiting for class to start? Oh, sure enough.

授業が始まるのを待っているの？

Over here, Anna's getting her class going...

アナはこっちで授業です

It does not work... Her camera doesn't work.

- 動かない - カメラが変だわ

Oh! Do you need some daddy help?

パパが見ようか？

Momma's the go-between-everybody

ママは行ったり来たり

Make sure everyone's on online school.

オンライン授業の準備

And Sarah too, right? Everyone's on.

- サラも？ - 全員よ

Sarah's in there? Yes, Sarah's in there.

- サラは2階？ - そう

When you've been quarantined as long as we have, you have to come up with games that keep you entertained — like this one!

隔離で家の中にいるので 新しい遊びも思いつきます

3, 2, 1

こんな風に！

After nearly two weeks in quarantine, we had our routine down pat but were more than ready to be done

3・2・1！

So I put all my stuff down here that I don't use right now

隔離の準備は事前に計画していましたが 様々なことがありました

Anna's in school over here too. Oh my goodness!

使わないものはここに入れている

We're nearing the end of our quarantine, but we are looking forward

アナが授業中です！

And we have some meetings online.

隔離の終わりも近いですが

At least we've been able to do most of it online.

大概の事は オンラインですることが出来ました

But we are looking forward to getting out again — oh boy!

外に出る時が楽しみです！

Joshua's the only one who can't go to school yet

ジョシュアは幼稚園に行けないね

Everyone else can go online

学校の授業はオンライン

Yep, but not me. But not you.

- 僕は違う - そうだね

But in two days you get to go back to school!

あと2日で幼稚園に行けるよ！

Who are you so excited to see?!

誰に会いたい？

Aiden. Aiden — your teacher — your friends

- エイデン - そうだね！あと先生達？

Next week we get out of quarantine — freedom!

次週は遂に隔離終了です！
