    Hello fellow Jet Laggers, like if your here cuz of Ben and Adam's challenge!

    Hi! Came here via a recent Jet Lag episode (Capture the Flag Japan, Ep6) which included a challenge (@ 39:10) to go to a nearby place that had a 100k view UA-cam video of it - so decided to check out this referenced random video as well. And what a treat! Such a sweet video, you all have delightful energy, and I love that you had such a wonderful day at Odawara Castle! Thanks for this small excursion, and extra points to Dash who was indeed very cute on his great adventure, especially in the awesome dandelion pic!

      I found this video thanks to Ban & Adam from Jet Lagged the Game too.

      Also, based on the footage, this video was 11 days old and had 106k views then when Ben and Adam saw it at the fourth day of the game, 12:44 pm local time. From this and the fact that this video is uploaded on April 7th about 7pm JST we can conclude that the game of Jet Lag is played from April 16th to 19th JST.

    Sarah is quick learner as it looks for her crocheting. I remember when I was her age and started but however nobody felt the need to teach me how to do a 2nd row and so now as an adult I think I need to catch up again someday and finally learn the 2nd row

    6:10 yeah I like that too. I mean if I don't know a place I go to and sit in a bus or train I tend to look more at the surounding area than for places I seen a couple of times. I love to see buildings I never seen before the most and especially if they have a color or shape I didn't seen before. I saw so many cool looking buildings by just looking out the window. My greatest memory was when I moved to the area I live in and drove from my city to the nearby town by train and saw the ruins of a castle in the hills trought the window

    At this time of year, Japan is filled with cherry blossoms wherever you look. Somei Yoshino, Kawazu cherry blossoms, etc. are a competition of cherry blossoms and many flowers in a short period.
    For a moment, when I was startled when Joshua nearly sat backwards on the fence surrounding Odawara Castle's pond, it was wonderful to warn our kids Daddy that it was dangerous. By the way, the stuffed dog made by Sarah is very cute. 👍🌸
