Creator's Key Takeaways

the most amazing ball pit ever don't you think so yeah it's even got a little chair in the ball pit

this is the longest roller slide I've ever seen I go a little bit faster than she does cuz I'm heavier

Creator's Tips & Advice

Rent a car when traveling in Japan, especially with a small child, to carry all your stuff and have flexibility.
Use IC cards or credit cards for parking payments, as many lots use honor systems with cameras and machines.
Visit attractions early to avoid crowds, as seen with the chairlift on Mount Omuro.

Navigating Japanese restaurants without knowing the languageLook for restaurants with picture menus and use simple phrases like pointing to items and saying 'biru' for beer.
