Awaji island, leaving port for whirlpool

VoyageurBeautiful scenery! That little boat racing through at the end of the video was funny! 😁
VoyageurOh that whirlpool is amazing! I’m sure you have to be there to get the experience first hand.
VoyageurYeah, pics don’t do it justice. The huge ship we were on, when we’d get close, it would just suck it down on one side, the ship was over 120 feet long, massive, and it just sucked it up. The brothers shared with us that there are similar whirlpools near Italy and likely it was one of the seagoing dangers Paul referred to.

This is awesome. Amazing food, delicious sake, best life ever kind of situation
VoyageurWow!! So much love and happiness! Only Jehovah’s people! Those signs the two Brothers are holding, “I love you more than sushi” and “I love you more than Kobe beef,” are great! 😁
VoyageurThe ramen, best I’ve ever had. The skewers were amazing, the mochi quite tasty. The sake has been eye opening. Clearly I’ve never had good sake in America, it’s so refreshing, sweet, no negative burn on the finish. Just oyyshi

Our exit was hampered by heavy rain
VoyageurSo, I couldn’t really shoot an earlier video cause it was hundreds of us packed tight trying to stay out of the rain. Each time someone’s bus would get called, everyone would cheer and chant the bus number. So our bus number was 811, that was the chant you were hearing. We were one of the last

VoyageurWhat are those unusual buildings especially what is that red sphere looking structure? I remember seeing a brother holding a replica in one of your previous pictures
VoyageurThat’s the Kobe tower. When Japan reopened to the world, Kobe was the center of it. They built that as a recognizable entry piece at the harbor for visitors and especially merchants as they would arrive to trade. Today it’s a neat thing to go up in, it has lots of neat features.
