In this Japan vlog, we take a break from amazing temples and castles, and visit Kurashiki! This small town is known for many things, including being the birthplace of denim in Japan, and also for being the “Venice of Japan.” Does it hold up to either reputation? Watch to find out!

awesome!
Very nice. We’ll be in Kurashiki next month for a bonsai show near by. Now we’ll also have to hunt down the bakery. Note: the peaches are actually persimmons.
沢山吊るされているのは桃ではなくて柿ですね。生で食べられない渋柿の皮をむいて干すことで、甘いドライフルーツになります。長野県の市田柿（いちだがき）が有名です。今の時期はスーパーマーケットで買えると思います。
Boulangerie Mugi: Name of the bakery…
倉敷いいですね、とても綺麗な映像です。おそらく倉敷への海外の観光客の中ではあなた達が最初かも！
倉敷は、小さな地方都市ですが、信じられないくらい魅力的な町です｡倉敷を訪れてくださって､ありがとうございます
日本へようこそ。😄
Really nice
さすがインテリ夫妻。題材に大原美術館を取り扱うなんざ。私も行きましたが。実業家の 大原孫三郎 が気骨ある画家 児島虎次郎 のために造りました。虎次郎がヨーロッパから持ち帰った セザンヌ マネ モネ などの作品は、見るべきものがあります。昔の富豪は、このように、私費で美術館を造りました。今みたいに富豪がセコくない。是非、島根県安来市にある 足立美術館 を訪れてみてください。横山大観を初め、日本人画家の作品がありますが。日本庭園が日本一です。感激されるはず。因みに私は、全国各地に行っています。
Welcome to Japan ! Hi Bill & Heather 😊 Amazing video !!! Your trip to Kurashiki is a great choice👍👍Looking to forward to your next video💗💗 THANK YOU SO MUCH🥰
Do you love Japanese Culture?! 😉 So I'm sure that you will love my music too! My music is Japanese Instrumentals! 🔴
I'm late for the party. But I brought my appetite. 😋
倉敷の良さがとてもよく撮れていますね🤩 大原美術館は本当に贅沢な場所です。
"Denim soft-serve ice cream", tastes like the Levi's Bill wore as a teenager. Just kidding, it tastes like “RUMUNE soda” and blueberries. It was unexpected that you moved further west from Osaka and Kyoto. As it turns out, it looks like you made the right decision. If you are still in Japan, winter brings rain and a lot of snow on the Sea of Japan side and dry sunny weather on the Pacific side. Keep up the great trip and don't catch any viruses. Where did you guys go this time? Can you say without seeing anything?
Japan is very proud to be one of the last place you can find natural indigo dyed denim and silks, hence the name “samurai blue” for their national soccer team
Welcome to the country that caused pain to society… anime. (I got no problem with anime but the weebs man)
