hey!
Hi everyone, it's Mitsun from futaripapa
For our last video, Rica's sister gave us a room tour of their sailboat
But this video is part 2 of our 4 nights 5 five days island hopping trip
The sea breeze takes me to the fjords,
sailing from island to island
blue sky and white clouds, it's the perfect summer!!
Please watch until the end!!
So let's get started, futaripapa's Island Hopping trip part 2!!
The day is July 31st, the second morning
the winds have calmed down, perfect for sailing
While the kids were still sleeping, we prepared to set sail
We headed to the gas station near the harbour
and there, we filled up the gas, and stocked up on water
right now, Mari is filling up the water
like I showed you in last week's boat tour, this is connected to the water tank in the master bedroom
However, the water in the tank is not for drinking
So, we fill up a small drinking water tank and also a few water bottles
Once we're all prepared, it's time to set sail
Seems like the kids are starting to wake up too
You... under here...
go! (he means to come here)
you want me to come down there?
yes
Okay, I'm coming
without further ado, it's time to go!
It feels so nice
Once we leave the shore, we put up the sail and are ready to go
This boat has an automatic sailing system
Like using a car navigation, you just set your destination and leave it up to the boat
There's no engine sounds, so you can just enjoy the sound of the waves while eating breakfast on the deck
Different from the day before, the weather is nice and calm
The temperature is 17.6 degrees celsius, but the sun rays shining down makes it feel like a hot summer
swaying in the wind and waves made me feel so calm and peaceful
And after a while, we arrived to the island
By the way, the place we're sailing is
On sweden's west coast and as you can see on the map,
depending on the fjord, there are different land formations that form archipelagos
our destination for today is called Stora Dyrön,
a popular island with harbours and restaurants
Right when we're about to arrive at the island, we turned on the engine and started heading towards the harbour
However, there were already so many boats
Right when I was thinking: "How are you going to dock the boat?"
I was surprised at what Mari and Andreas did next!
they docked their boat next to a boat that was already docked on the harbour and
using that boat, they connected their own boat to it with a rope
They casually greet the boat owner
and to get on the dock, all you do is just walk on their boat
For me, it was quite shocking.
(eventually there are 4boats in a row!)
On that note, we arrived at our first island!
We have a light lunch in the boat cabin
and the first thing we did was go to a beach just behind the harbour
Do you see that red thing there?
yeah
You can't go near it, it will sting you
It really hurts if this red jellyfish stings you
All you have to do is just jump where there aren't any jellyfish
Meanie!
Seems like they found something at the rocky beach
What our son is trying to catch is...
YAY~
it was a crab!
You break the mussels
with a hard rock!
Just like he taught me, I opened the mussels with a rock
and attach it to laundry clips, for an easy fishing bait
You can actually catch quite a few using these
Our son seems proud
Papa, stay still right there!
If it falls, the man is going to catch it!
Are you going to fish?
yeah
I'll show you
You're going to show me~?
This is how you do it
Over at the pier, seems like Andreas just caught something too
WOW! so huge!
Seems like there is a good fishing spot, so Mitsu pappa will try too
I'm going to try right here
Look-- yay~ haha~
Both the kids and the adults are focused
it looks like  a gray mullet, maybe not?
? what happened to our son?
papa can you catch this fish!
here
no no no
Only under water
why~?
Fish can only breathe underwater
Seems like he wanted to hold the fish and look at it closely, like he did with the crabs
look at this!
How many legs does it have?
(mari) Did you release the fish you caught earlier?
yeah
Since the bucket was getting crowded we released the fish
and after this the crabs were also released back into the ocean
Everything was so fun and exciting for our son that he was running around all day long
And after that, we went to a seafood restaurant recommended by Mari
The time is 4 in the afternoon
We still have time until our dinner reservation
so mari made us moscow mules (cocktail)
Is it time for a toast?
Cheers!
And now, its 6pm, our reservation time
This restaurant is Mari's recommendation
You can eat delicious seafood, but
It's just so nice being able to eat under the sun
cheers!
So good~
This is a mojito, right?
You too Mari?
ya
While we were enjoying the last of our summer to the fullest, the food arrived at our table
Mari got shrimp pizza
and since Andreas is vegan, he got asian style noodle salad
the kids just had regular pizza
Rica pappa had grilled fish
And this is what I ordered:
grilled scampi shrimp with garlic sauce
This shrimp makes me feel like I'm eating the ocean!
It was super delicious
After we finished our meal, we headed to the pier again
You don't get tired of it no matter how many times you jump (lol)
Should we go on 1-2-3?
yeah
Okay let's go on 1-2-3
So cold!
really? it's warm!
Here comes Rica pappa
To catch the sunset, we climbed the cliff
the day is still long, it is 9 pm right now
while Mitsu pappa was changing, Rica pappa and our son were already there
PAPA~
You can see our boat!
yeah~
That's where the boats sail
Let's go that way on the way back
You want to go that way?
yeah
You can go this way too
hey mitsu pappa?
Yeah?
Look at the sun
The sun is setting down
You're right
We need to go back before the sun completely sets
That's why I said let's go that way!
But that way is dangerous
But if I go with you guys then it will be fine
It's still not safe enough
It's dangerous for papa and papa too?
yes
see, the sun is going to hide soon
It's going to get dark soon
Isn't is time to sleep?
no~
are you going to sleep on this mountain?
No~!
You will be so cold
Then we have to go now
Come this way
To the beach!
go to the beach?
This way
I'll go first and check
so fast~
Juuump!
And on our way back to the boat,
Can you hear something?
No... wait, I hear something!
I can hear something!
whats that sound?
I dont know
Let's listen quietly then
Sound of insects
I hear it from over there!
You can hear it from over there?
The tree... from on top of the tree!
On the tree?
It's probably the sound of a cricket
We never hear this in north sweden
It reminded me of Japan's autumn
when we returned to the boat,
Mari was pumping something
you're gonna do that now?
tomorrow
I might do it to test it a little
and the third morning
This day's weather was also perfect
Mari was pumping a paddle board yesterday
Mari is active so she paddled early in the morning for exercise
She did a big loop around the island
Bye~
and after Mari came back, rather than exercising, Andreas and I had our turn on the paddle board for fun
At first it was quite scary, but
you become quite stable afterwards
and after I do a loop around the island,
I try paddle board yoga, something I've always wanted to try!
Firstly, the basic downwards dog
and then one legged downwards facing dog
and transition to the warrior pose
while I do that I get swayed by the waves
lastly, a headstand!
This was definitely hard to do
after a few tries,
I did it ----!
well thats what I thought, but right after that
I would like to gain more practice
and after that we all went on a walk
we headed towards the ice cream shop located on the other side of the island
(they get along now)
the island's population is 250 people as of 2010
The island's small supermarket
there so many to choose from
Andreas was preparing for departure while we were on our walk
With the help from the boat next to us, we were able to leave the harbour
We said our goodbye to the island that gave us wonderful memories and
next we are headed to a deserted island
we put up the sail and slowly sailed away
With the automatic driving system, I also steered the boat
Mari, look this way!
Mitsuo, Andreas, look this way!
If you sail with the motor on, you can get there in a few minutes, but
we slowly sailed towards the next island
While we were relaxing with the waves, we arrived at our next island
This island is a deserted island so there is no harbour
So how do we dock the boat?
Are you ready to dock?
Come a little bit closer~
But unfortunately, this is it for today's video
As expected, I couldn't fit everything into one video!
Next video will be a continuation of this trip on this deserted island
In the comment section from last week's video, some people said "don't try to cram  your videos into one" "I want to see up to episode 10!"
So I will kindly listen to those requests
bbq on the cliffs, cliff jumping countless times,
and exploring the forest on the island
what did the kids find?
And then we headed to restaurant on another island with the boat
I hope you look forward for the next video
And thank you for watching until the very end
