Despite the crowds and strict safety monitoring by ski patrol, the children enjoy sledding and playing in the snow. The day concludes with a family meal and a heartwarming encounter with fans of their \"Life in Japan\" channel.
Look straight ahead. There's where we're going. The slopes of Mt. Fuji.
And today, Ruth is driving, because Daddy forgot his wallet.
Oh look, the monorail is going right overhead. Wow, that was cool. Good timing, Ruth.
It only takes a little over an hour to drive to Fujiten from Tokyo, so we like coming out here for some fun in the snow.
There's Fuji-Q. Oh, there goes a rollercoaster.
Do you see that really tall one right there? That rollercoaster's going up right now?
That's the one that Sarah and I did. Sarah did that one.
I still can't believe Sarah did that.
Here we are. There's everyone else. They're arriving too. Alright.
It's like a marshmallow.
Fujiten!
You're getting it already, Becca. You're getting it already.
Today, we're going sledding. A little icy, huh? Let's be careful.
Somebody threw snow at me. Somebody threw snow at you? We'll just throw snow back at them later.
Today was a special holiday, which means a lot of people were out, but it also meant that kids under 12 got in for free.
That's all the kids for us.
You guys ready? Here we go. Can you stand on here?
There we go. Look. We're going up. We're at the top.
Okay, let's go over here.
Ready, dude?
We did it!
You want to take it? Yes. Okay.
Is it already recording? It's recording already.
Wow! How was it? Fun?
Anna's going with Jess at this time. Look at that.
There wasn't much snow, and there was a lot of people, so the ski patrol was out in full force.
It kind of felt like we were being pulled over by the police every time we did a run.
Come, Seth!
Let's go way in the front because, look, there's no green things right up there.
Should we try it? Yes. Let's try it!
Was it fun? It was so much fun.
Looks like another speeding ticket.
You holding it? Yeah.
Sarah! I can't get out.
It's so cool. I can't get out.
You can't get out?
Oh, they just barely got away.
Yay! Awesome!
Here comes Sarah.
Oh, my. Papa and Papa are going to come together.
Uh-oh. What do you think? Is this a ticket or not?
Excuse us.
Oh, looks like they did all right.
Whoa, Sarah!
Skadoosh!
Yes! Good stop, dude!
Look who we found over here.
All the sledding, and my kid wants to play on the slide.
Yeah. The kids found the slides.
Let's go together.
All right, it's lunchtime. Let's grab a bite to eat.
Oh, curry rice. Looks really good, huh, guys?
Even though there were a lot of people and the ski patrol was on high alert,
busy making sure everyone was safe, we still had a great time.
The kids picked up sledding fast and didn't want to leave at the end of the day.
While we were there, a lady stopped Ruth and asked,
Are you from YouTube?
She said yes, and we were able to get a picture with Aki's son,
her family, and friends who watch Life in Japan.
We always love meeting fans and getting a picture with them,
so if you ever see us out and about, don't hesitate to introduce yourself,
and we can get a picture together.
Whoa! What do you think?
Whoa, it's been awesome.
It's been? It's been awesome.
All right.
Snowballs.
Oh, yeah.
Getting ready to roll.
Here we go.
A lot of fun, right?
Yeah.
All right, girlfriend.
Chauffeuring the family home.
Thank you for watching Life in Japan.
We'll see you next time for another adventure.
Bye-bye.
