We've got lots of fun things lined up for this break, and it all culminates in grand sakura fashion

我們已經為這個假期安排了很多有趣的事情，而且這一切都以盛大的櫻花方式達到高潮。

Get ready to see Japan's Sakura Spring Break on this Life in Japan!

準備好在這個《生活在日本》節目中看到日本的櫻花春假吧!

[Life in Japan Theme Song]

[生活在日本的主題曲]。

There are many great places to see Sakura in the Tokyo area, but the tickets are limited and many places like Ueno are all sold out.

在東京地區有許多看櫻花的好地方，但門票有限，許多地方如上野都已售罄。

Not to fear— we got tickets for Shinjuku Park, and are going there to meet up with a new friend and check it out.

不用擔心--我們買到了新宿公園的門票，準備去那裡和一個新朋友見面，並去看看。

That's a weird tree over there!

那邊的樹真奇怪！

Look at Anna posing the boys... Oh my goodness!

看看安娜給孩子們擺的姿勢...哦，我的天啊

Anna's getting some shots over here.

安娜在這裡拍了一些照片。

So today we have Dr Justin with us! Hi guys!

今天我們請來了Justin博士!大家好!

Tell me, you have a YouTube channel?

告訴我，你有一個YouTube頻道？

Yeah, I have a YouTube channel, Dr Justin in Japan

是的，我有一個YouTube頻道，Justin博士在日本

And I do videos about Okinawa, in southern Japan.

我還做了關於日本南部的沖繩的視頻。

I swim with fish and also do research on mental health and Japan.

我和魚一起游泳，也做心理健康和日本方面的研究。

I love joining your family today! This is so exciting.

我喜歡今天加入你的家庭!這真是太令人興奮了。

Well it's so fun to have you with us. Thanks for joining us!

你能來參加我們的節目真是太有趣了。謝謝你加入我們!

Let's do this! Let's do this!

讓我們這樣做吧!讓我們這樣做吧!

It doesn't look like Okinawa but it's still fun!

它看起來不像沖繩，但它仍然很有趣！"。

What is happening here?!

這裡發生了什麼？

There we go!

我們走吧!

With the introductions done, it was time to explore the park.

介紹完畢後，就到了探索公園的時間。

Even though the skies were gray, the park was full of beautiful sakura trees of all types in bloom.

儘管天空是灰色的，但公園裡到處都是盛開的各種類型的美麗櫻花樹。

It was one beautiful landscape after another, but it comes at a price,

這是一個又一個美麗的風景，但它是有代價的。

because if you visit Shinjuku park with kids, beware: there's no playgrounds to entertain the kids

因為如果你帶著孩子去新宿公園，請注意：那裡沒有娛樂孩子的遊樂場所。

and even playing in the fields is prohibited except in one designated area.

甚至禁止在田地裡玩耍，除非在一個指定的區域。

But if beautiful scenes are your thing, you'll find it at Shinjuku Park.

但是，如果你喜歡美麗的風景，你會在新宿公園找到它。

These are two very very famous things in Okinawa,

這是在沖繩非常非常有名的兩件事。

These are from the ocean — they're very sweet and tasty

這些是來自海洋的 - 它們非常甜美可口

Sea Grapes?! You eat them just like that.

海葡萄嗎!你就這樣吃了它們。

And this is a famous dessert there that you guys can try.

而這是那裡著名的甜點，你們可以試試。

So these are very Okinawan style. Oh! Cool, thank you!

所以這些都是非常沖繩的風格。哦！很好，謝謝你

And with a fun souvenir in hand, the kids let us know it was time to head home.

手裡拿著有趣的紀念品，孩子們讓我們知道是時候回家了。

You getting a free ride, Dude? He hurt his feet

你得到了一個免費的旅程，督爺？他的腳受傷了

But he has a walking stick. Yeah?

但他有一根手杖。是嗎？

For me, there' nothing quite like Sakura

對我來說，沒有什麼能比得上櫻花。

But at night, in the neighborhoods around where we live,

但在晚上，在我們居住地周圍的社區。

it becomes something magical that words just can't quite describe.

它成為一種神奇的東西，用語言無法完全描述。

The next day, we piled into the car and made our way into the mountains.

第二天，我們擠進車內，進入山區。

Ruth's friend Yoshiko invited us out to Odakyu Forest on Lake Yamanaka for a night in a cabin,

露絲的朋友吉子邀請我們去山中湖的小田急森林，在一個小木屋裡過夜。

so we temporarily left the Sakura behind for an adventure near Mt Fuji.

所以我們暫時把櫻花號拋在後面，去富士山附近探險。

Wether would we actually see Mt Fuji or not was still a bit dubious.

我們是否真的能看到富士山，還是有點疑慮。

There we go— we see the cabin in the woods, our place for tonight.

在那裡，我們看到了樹林中的小屋，我們今晚的住處。

Let's see, what do we have here? How do we open it?

讓我們看看，我們這裡有什麼？我們如何打開它？

Oh no! We can't stay inside? We'll have to stay out on the porch, huh?

哦，不！我們不能呆在裡面？我們必須呆在門廊上，嗯？

We'll just have to sleep out here, huh?

我們只能睡在這裡了，嗯？

Don't break it! I did it!

不要打碎它!我做到了！

Yea! She did it!

是的!她成功了！

It's just like the school one.

這就像學校裡的那個。

Oh is it? OK let's see. What do we have, guys? This is it.

哦，是嗎？好吧，讓我們看看。我們有什麼，夥計們？這就是它。

I claim this corner! You claim the corner?

我要求這個角落！你要求這個角落？

Everybody sleeps right here!

每個人都在這裡睡覺!

OK, should we bring our stuff up? I already did. And I'm done.

好吧，我們應該把我們的東西拿上來嗎？我已經做了。而且我已經完成了。

You did?!

你有嗎？

OK everyone! Super quiet! Look, what do you see out there?

大家好!超級安靜！看，你在外面看到了什麼？

A deer! There's deer!

有鹿!有鹿！

Do you see it out there? Oh my goodness!

你在外面看到它了嗎？哦，我的天哪！我的天哪

How awesome is that?! It reminds me of America.

這多棒啊！！！這讓我想起了美國。這讓我想起了美國。

I know, it is kind of like America, huh?

我知道，這有點像美國，是吧？

Can you get a shot of it you think? Oh my goodness, how crazy!

你能拍到你認為的照片嗎？哦，我的天啊，太瘋狂了!

Wow, so cool!

哇，太酷了!

After getting settled in, we did a quick trip to the grocery store before it was time of the main event of the night.

安頓好之後，我們快速地去了趟雜貨店，然後就到了晚上的主要活動時間。

Wow, do we need a flashlight on so we can see?! Well, I don't need one.

哇，我們需要打開手電筒，以便我們能看到嗎？嗯，我不需要。

Ooooooo

Ooooooo

We said a prayer of thanks together and then the feast began! No one would go hungry tonight!

After dinner, there was another surprise waiting.

晚餐後，還有另一個驚喜在等待著。

Oh, here we go, huh Sarah!? Is it finally bedtime now, honey?

哦，我們來了，嗯，莎拉！？現在終於到了睡覺時間了嗎，親愛的？

No. Yes?!

不，是嗎？

No, I don't want to... Joshua's bed is all ready.

不，我不想...約書亞的床都已經準備好了。

I don't want to go in there, because I'm not tired.

我不想進去，因為我不累。

You're not tired yet? One minute later, he's asleep.

你還不累嗎？一分鐘後，他就睡著了。

Yes you are, you are ready for bed, Fred.

Here we go. There's nothing like getting out early

我們來了。沒有什麼比早點出來

You gotta get those early morning shots. That's the way you gotta do it.

你得拍下那些清晨的照片。這就是你要做的。

Well, yesterday the clouds came down just to this point, and you couldn't see anything above it

嗯，昨天雲層降到了這個點，上面什麼都看不見了

But today... it is exactly the opposite.

但今天......情況正好相反。

The clouds are just hovering over the lake now, and you can see everything above it

現在雲層只是在湖面上盤旋，你可以看到湖面上的一切

But when I was down in there you could see anything at all.

但是當我在下面的時候，你根本就可以看到任何東西。

We're staying just over here.

我們就住在這裡。

Alright, that's beautiful. It's time to get back and deliver some coffee to the crew.

好了，這很美。是時候回去給船員們送點咖啡了。

Japanese cabins is kind of just like one big huge sleepover,

日本的小木屋有點像一個巨大的睡房。

The whole room just transforms into — just massive bed.

整個房間就變成了--只是巨大的床。

You heard Daddy snore?! I did not!

你聽到爸爸打鼾了嗎？我沒有！

You didn't? And I heard Joshua sleep talking.

你沒有嗎？而且我聽到了約書亞的夢話。

Yea Becca, you didn't make a peep all night.

是的，貝卡，你整晚都沒有發出任何聲音。

Whoa Becca!

哇，貝卡！

I thought Daddy was asleep the whole time and I woke up about 7.

我以為爸爸一直在睡覺，我大約7點就醒了。

So now the sleepover's over

On our way home we stopped at one of favorite parks near Mt Fuji, Sakura Park in Gotemba.

在回家的路上，我們在富士山附近最喜歡的公園之一--御殿場的櫻花公園停留。

Since the elevation is lower than Lake Yamanaka, these Sakura are just about to bloom

由於海拔比山中湖低，這些櫻花剛要綻放。

as opposed to the Sakura down near sea level where we live which have already bloomed.

相比之下，我們住的地方靠近海平面的櫻花已經開了。

It's fun to have so many different climates near us.

I think you lose. No I won't.

我認為你輸了。不，我不會。

Yes you will.

是的，你會的。

I knew it! I knew it!

我就知道!我就知道！

But the ultimate Sakura experience involves getting a bento — a prepared lunch you can either make or buy —

但最終的櫻花體驗涉及到獲得一個便當--一種你可以製作或購買的預製午餐。

and taking it out with friends to have a picnic under the Sakura.

並帶著它與朋友一起在櫻花下野餐。

The Japanese call this Hanami, or blossom viewing, and it is the best way to enjoy the Sakura.
