Not the convenience store.
I'm gonna go to the supermarket.
Oh.
I think it's best if you go together.
I know it's good.
Raiden, he needs to be watched at all times.
He'll just like wander off like a lost duckling.
This is really long.
No, it's not.
But this is Japan, so.
I need somebody to watch over me.
Right, okay.
Last night they was like,
Mom, you need to go to sleep.
And I used to watch them.
And then she fell asleep.
Oh.
They couldn't sleep.
They're having a hard time sleeping.
Too much fun?
Josephine.
Oh, because they're wired to clock.
Jet lag? Jet lag, yeah.
Because they were sleeping the whole flight.
But I told them,
Just turn off and then try to sleep.
And then it's like,
Exactly.
Both of them.
Alright.
Strawberry.
Wow, look how pretty the flowers are.
These are really good flowers.
You guys should like,
pick one.
Careful, Bray.
They're all wet, Bray.
These are cool flowers.
Try to pull this.
Pull this?
Like all of them at the same time?
Oh, they come out.
Cool, huh, Bray?
You're only left with the petals.
See?
Only left with the petals.
Nice.
What kind of flower that is.
It's cool.
Oh, I take all of them.
Got it, Bray.
That's the cool thing about these flowers.
I learned it in my science class.
What did Sarah also want?
No, no.
Oranges, strawberries.
Oranges?
She said yes to oranges.
And strawberries.
Tangerines.
Tangerines are great.
Seedless is the best.
Brayden, careful.
Stay on the side, huh?
Are you limping, Holi?
Why?
Oh, fell asleep.
Oh, Bray.
You gotta...
We're going through the side alley.
Oh, for real?
That's so cool.
You know recess, right?
Recess is like...
We don't have recess here in Japan.
But our recess is like hanging outside.
We don't have lunch.
Yeah, no, that's what we did.
If it was recess, we'd go play out there.
Right, Bray?
Right?
I like your shorts, Bray.
You look like a sailor.
My pants are like old ones.
Those are your shorts, right?
Those are yours?
I think so, yeah.
They make it look like...
It's like short pants in the Philippines.
Kind of similar.
Can't believe I'm walking in Japan right now.
With my nephew.
Wow.
What's up, dude?
What's going on, man?
With my American nephew here.
He walks like McGregor.
You're walking with your cousin.
That's so cool.
I can't believe I'm a Kuya now.
You are a Kuya now.
Isn't that crazy how time flies?
Even five years ago since I've seen you.
You've grown.
You and Kathleen are huge.
You're the same size as Kathleen.
So if you guys are wondering, Holy is 12 years old.
So he's just a little bit older than Michael
and just a little bit younger than Kathleen.
One year.
One year gap.
Yeah, one year gap for both, which is cool.
Okay, we're going to the store.
We're going to get bread.
See you guys when we get there.
Japan has the most number of vending machines.
Yeah, vending machines everywhere.
Yeah.
Cool.
We're going in here.
You can follow.
Careful.
You're going to get your foot.
Careful, bud.
Just follow a Kuya.
Oh, nice.
We're going up to the grocery.
Convenient.
Boom.
Holy is a pro already.
How high is it?
It goes right to the floor.
The elevator goes straight into the store.
That is so cool.
Good morning.
You want one?
Okay.
Why don't we get a big one?
Do you guys have the big ones we can just get?
They don't have a big one of this.
Okay.
Which one do you like?
I like apple.
Calm down.
I didn't.
Chocolate breadsticks.
Don't forget it.
Pizza bread.
Pizza bread?
Yeah, that's very dense.
Whoa.
Cool.
Watch out, baby.
Watch out.
A day in life in Holy.
With Holy.
Sourdough?
No, no, no.
Way too sugary.
No, no, no.
You let us pick.
We're going to have...
Okay.
We just passed the drink aisle.
Frozen food.
Wow, look at all this.
I wonder what the prices are like.
But here's my calculator.
He's like, oh, that's just $1.
Or this and that.
You're pretty good.
$5.18?
Huh?
$5.18?
Is that the conversion?
I don't know.
Or maybe it's $518.40.
No.
That would be too expensive.
$4.
$518 is $50,000 in Japanese.
Whoa.
That looks super yummy.
All this stuff.
What's up, Kuya? Tell me.
Can we get milk?
Yeah.
Look at all this Japanese food, guys.
Yeah, it's so cool.
Look at the different food.
That looks really good.
Hmm?
Japan has so much good food.
Oh my gosh. Delicious.
Look at this delicious one.
Wow, that looks really amazing.
They make it so well here.
The quality of everything is just amazing
in Japan.
The toilets aren't good.
The what?
The toilets.
The bidets.
I love the bidet.
The only ones that don't have the bidet is like...
I saw in the airport
it was like all the way on the bottom
where you have to squat.
Those are mostly for urinating.
Ah!
Are you serious?
Oops, I got the wrong idea then.
Because I was picturing a Filipino squat
squatting over it.
You could do that too, right?
You can squat over it.
Take a dump.
This is a great conversation.
About all the yummy food.
Oh yeah, sorry, cheese.
Alright, guys.
We'll see you guys at checkout.
I'm gonna keep talking to Holly
and make her forget everything.
Okay, so we got bread. We got cheese.
I need to remember to get fruits.
Strawberries.
You've been asking for watermelon.
Maybe next time.
Again?
I mean...
Let me...
Look at these strawberries.
The red is always the sweetest.
I might want to get two bags.
That's good.
It's okay, I'll buy it.
Okay, we're checking out.
There's Holly.
Going to the grocery.
It's a big kuya already.
Oh my gosh.
Yes.
Yeah, it's all open now.
Good morning.
Excuse me.
Okay, so after buying the groceries.
Brayden, damn.
Excuse you.
After buying the groceries.
You bag it here.
So, like this.
It's a bit small, isn't it?
Do you have a bigger bag?
We don't need the plastic bag.
That's not what we want.
Thank you.
I'll bring this with me.
Everywhere I go.
Oh, you're using your backpack.
Yes, money hack.
Money hack.
Because we have to pay for the plastic bags.
The big ones?
No, all of the same.
This one?
This one is like for...
Yeah, that's for free.
But it's only for like meat.
Yes, veggies.
That's what they do.
This isn't like a plastic bag.
It's free.
It just puts them in a...
Do you guys have paper bags?
You have to pay for a paper bag?
No.
We barely put them in a bag.
Remember guys.
Just bring a backpack.
Money hack.
Just like Kuya Holy said.
Alright.
You're the cheese man.
I'll bring a milk bag.
Good job.
Put it in there.
This is the mascot.
The mascot of the supermarket.
And the supermarket is called Life.
Life?
Yeah.
I want to eat Life.
Let's eat Life.
Let's shop at Life.
Because Life is worth eating.
Oh, Payden.
You almost ran into Kuya.
Sorry.
It's cute.
It's like...
You use it for something.
And then from here,
you put a different part.
He wants to show you this first.
Okay. Thank you.
Can I try that one?
You try it.
You're already getting super big.
You might be able to do it
really easy.
Here goes Destin.
A timer.
I got a timer right here. Ready?
Go.
Ninja warrior.
See? It was easy.
Look at that.
She knows how to swing it.
It was easy, right?
You're back already?
I'm back already.
It's you.
Oh my gosh.
I can't imagine you playing here.
Oh my gosh.
You seem so real.
It's great.
Sana all family.
Cousins.
Thank you for coming here.
Of course.
Oh my gosh.
I'm worried already when you guys are going home.
So are they. They're going to miss it.
Good job.
Oh yeah. That's a nice spot
right there if you guys are all on the bridge.
Okay.
Four of you.
Josephine, go back
up there after that, okay?
Swing faster.
Swing it.
Did you see how well Destiny did it?
Ninja warrior.
Go.
Picture time.
Josephine, Regan, and then Destiny.
Go.
By age?
By age.
Okay, go.
Forget about the age.
We're not going to get that.
Oh yeah, right there.
Jump.
Jump here.
Okay, jump.
One, two, three.
Oh my gosh.
It's fine.
You got the swings.
Oh my gosh.
She likes it.
She likes it sideways?
Oh my gosh.
Wet?
Yeah, don't go on it then if it's wet.
It's wet? Then don't go on it.
Okay.
Oh, good.
Or maybe you just cleaned it off.
Oh yeah, it's dry. Good job.
Zip it down.
Zip down it.
Zip.
Put your feet up.
My kids are playing in Japan with their cousins.
This is insane.
I did not have expected this.
I've always wanted to come to Japan.
And now technically I have family here.
Isn't that amazing?
I didn't sit down and think about it.
But it's really cool when you do.
So Kuichi is at work.
We're going to wait for them to come off work.
Totty.
Alright, we're stopping at the vending machine.
It only takes coins.
So we have to use Japanese.
How do you say holy?
It's not yen, it's en.
The Y is silent.
Brayden, where did it go?
It's gone here.
That's like totally taboo in Japan.
You're going to drink everything.
You have beautiful eyes, Brayden.
No, my eyes are beautiful.
Your eyeball is so pretty.
What are you talking about?
Your eyelash is like OMG.
How about my eyes?
I will run the world with eyelash.
She's like, everyone is drinking but me.
There you go.
Stop for Destiny and let her enjoy for a second.
Pink team versus blue.
I didn't realize this.
Pink versus blue.
Is that your phone?
Yeah, it's my phone.
She's getting to the point where
it matters.
Why is there drinks everywhere?
You're a keen observer.
Just like Kathleen is very observant.
You're so observant.
I don't cook.
You don't have to cook, you don't have to clean.
Oh boy.
I don't flush.
When did you realize this?
I didn't, I was flushing it by hand.
I don't cook, I don't clean.
I cook by hand.
What were you about to say?
You were sure that they're going to let us pass?
But he didn't.
But usually because they would let us pass first.
Maybe he's in a rush.
Okay, we're off to the other one.
There's only one gyudon that's like this.
Oh, they're playing some tennis over here?
Some serious players.
And seniors.
Ah, senior players.
Oh, they'd smoke me.
They're like 76.
For real? They don't look it, the way they're moving.
Some of them are like, some of them
do like a father-son bonding
But most of the time when I come here
Oh yeah, they would destroy me.
They're good.
Oh, still going.
Out.
It's out.
Nani?
What?
Yeah, I heard Holi say.
Big condo.
I know, me too.
It's like when I think of it
I was like, oh my gosh.
We have family in Japan.
Now that we're really here, it's like really sinking in.
I was saying that earlier when Brayden was on the slide.
I was like, this just
Yeah, that's the perfect
We come here all the time
Oh
Alright
Play some football
They're probably good
Oh yeah, they're gonna kick my butt.
Okay guys, we're heading out
The next park
We just played dodgeball, it was fun.
Oops
We lost the other one
They got my foot
Oh, did we? I forgot.
Oh, that's right.
Raven
Okay, stop sign
We're here at a cute little intersection
We're going this way?
Okay
Watch out behind you, Josephine
Watch out for the bicycles on the right
You hold it, you're gonna throw it away, bud
I'm carrying this one
Yes sir
He's gonna use the bathroom
The loo
Oh look, you can see the bathroom right here
Yeah
That's funny
You can see everything
Show us how
Okay guys, paying respect
Good
Watch out for the bike behind you
Very good
What did I tell you? Don't point it at people's face
Let's go
