some information on the masks here when you put the mask on then the glue part should be on the outside not the inside just some information so this should be on the everyone's been doing it wrong for for many years but I pointing the internet this should be on the inside people are doing it the other way so make sure you wear your rap masks correctly the glue and the is on the outside the glue is where the string is attached to because it's because because it's a little bumpy it sticks out so where the mask I can't talk to you didn't think about that wait how am I gonna talk to you at the positions are and the hanging sign [Music] we would just put up with the on so we saw stupid okay awesome I think I messed this up I'll wear this later I think it's too late if I got it I got it he

yesterday and she said that she still had to teach them so I'm worried about tonight - we both had we both had vaccines we're buds vaccinated for the flu about a month and a half ago before we went to Europe so we should be safe like the announcements in English you should do it and influenza influenza livestream really when I catch it I'll do it maybe that's I always lose my tickets I know where I'm sitting what'd you think of my friend yucky sod super super nice guy and I hope you do make it get a chance to stop at his place I guess I don't think he gets a lot of people visiting the museum it's not really marked in English and I think he said he gets about three people a day so that's not a lot and I'm gonna come back and I didn't even pay him but he wouldn't take my money I did give him a DVD I did give him a DVD I wish you could sit down and talk with him about his passion not sure I'm gonna do this in a longer edited episode I think with this live stream I just wanted to showcase it because they didn't have a lot of time but I'm gonna come back and I think I'm coming back here in the in June's to Hokkaido and of course I'll stop back here because I want to see my friend see how he's doing we're both were both 17 years older but it's nice to keep the relationship and he was he was kind of he was sad too he gave me his business card to make sure I stay in touch

imminent here comes a train that's the other side it's a one month a one my meaning one man is doing everything so that means our trains coming from this direction I didn't get an icky Bend I don't

hometown is to Moodle Don I believe it's hard for me to see he got she murdered on yeah that's a local local train just like it's actually full I guess cuz there's only one car that you can sit in I don't see the train that's me busted busted [Music] whoa check it out it's got like smoke coming out of it that is not that's a diesel engine that is not electric I saw you it's coming now weak this is like an express train Hokkaido does Hokkaido has a Shinkansen but it only goes to hakoda they're building the tracks so it'll go to Sapporo so I think it's gonna be another four years before you can go directly from Sapporo to Tokyo that'd be pretty cool but we're not quite there yet but the one man trains out of sight now alright so suddenly we go into a tunnel so I'm gonna lose the connection pretty quickly yeah you guys like this it's just I love the alleged shooters take on a life of their own that's what live means it can go anywhere live means that he can go left right something can happen something good can happen something bad can happen anything there's actually two trains coming there's one at 11:25 which is the one I'm taking and then there's one at 7 minutes later they were the same price so I took 11:25 because it gets in a lot earlier sort of it's coming I can hear the singing it comes the authority it's not gonna bust him you got to stay behind the yellow line and everybody this is exciting here comes a train I see it always at a car that's traffic from the highway nearby I think we're using the wide-angle lens so you can't see it but it says it's on the way well there it is oh it's chugging look at that is awesome she's coming in a little hot look at that nose honor its massive welcome to noboribetsu super Hokuto welcome Dounia super Hokuto bound for supper Oh departing at 11:25 alright guys this is where we say goodbye this is where we say goodbye a couple of people welcome to nobody better all right so there's a place for my rugged and then we're gonna go sitting inside of here so is that fun stay safe thank you I'm gonna put on a mask right now but everybody thinks there's so much for watching us please do if you come to nobody better come and visit come and visit what cocky sons place and I know you're gonna really enjoy it he you probably can get a lot of attention from the owner as well he's so friendly he'll try his best to communicate with you bring a Google Translate or translator to I think that might help but you know you're also gonna have a really good friend if you come here too nobody bets to meet with him so I hope that you do see you soon while cocky son thanks so much nobody bets ooh I love the guest house that I was at - it was pretty exciting stay I got told I'll thank you not eat the Sun
