Laid-Back Camp (ゆるキャン△)

Good morning, everyone!

Hey.

Morning.

Morning, Nadeshiko-chan.

Akari-chan, it's been ages!

It sure has.

Let's have fun today, Nadeshiko-chan.

Yeah, we will!

Let's relax and heal at the capybara hot spring!

Yeah!

Thank you for looking after my sister, Sensei.

Of course. I'll take good care of her.

Shall we get going, then?

Yeah!

See you, Onee-chan!

Don't go causing Sensei any trouble.

Listen up, kids.

Our main theme of this trip is to visit some geoparks and try Izu's local food.

Rin and I are going to check out all the geosites.

She's already on her way.

We can't let her leave us in the dust.

Yessir!

Geoparks are natural parks rich in geographic assets,

such as volcanoes, geological features, and landscapes.

Each of those assets is known as a "geosite" or "geospot."

It's been forever since we went camping together!

It's been since the Christmas trip, hasn't it?

Also, Nadeshiko, is it just me, or do you have huge bags under your eyes?

I was so giddy last night, I couldn't sleep.

Are you all right?

I'm fine!

There's no way I could sleep when we're going Izu camping!

You're not getting any sleep tonight either, Akari-chan!

Yeah, figures.

Episode 10 The Izu Camp Trip Begins!

I really like the sea.

Cape Ose

Geospot number one: Cape Ose.

A narrow strip of land formed from dirt and rubble carried by currents.

Floresta Yakushin

Kamike Pond

There it is.

Jouyama

Geospot number two: Jouyama.

One of Izu's most famous mountains, formed by upthrusts of magma from tectonic activity.

It looks like a fist from the side.

You're right.

Hey, look, Nadeshiko-chan! It's a huge knuckle mountain!

She won't wake up...

I'm sure she will by the time we get to Shimoda.

Good morning!!

We're in Izu now.

NO SLEEP!

Her eyes are wide awake.

Must be easy in the van.

Fifty more kilometers to Shimoda...

Okay.

What a crazy mountain pass.

Mind manners and rules

It's a huge shrimp in the mountains.

Shrimp...

Roadside station

Wasabi Mountain

Have some wasabi!

Kawazu Nanadaru Loop Bridge

Geospot number three: Ryugukutsu Cave.

Ryugukutsu Cave

Waves have eroded the roof of this cave, creating a skylight.

Wow...

We aren't moving at all.

The cherry blossom festival in Kawazu City is notorious for causing traffic jams.

A cherry blossom festival is held in Kawazu City

from the beginning of February to the beginning of March.

Each year, a million people come from all over

to enjoy the earliest-blooming cherry blossoms in Japan.

I'm back!

Stuck in traffic

That was fun.

I got some cherry blossom steamed buns for us.

I thought you were going to the restroom.

I should tell Rin we're going to be late.

I'm at Shimoda.

Where are you guys?

We're stuck in traffic because of the Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival.

We're going to be a bit late.

Sorry.

Okay.

I'll wander around to kill time.

That's a huge anchor.

Shimoda Hot Springs Kaiyu Foot Bath

So warm.

I like toriis by the water.

It's the Black Ships!

The Black Ships are here!

Maybe I'll go check it out over there.

Nadeshiko-chan! Nadeshiko-chan!

Nadeshiko-chan!

You're finally awake!

Sorry... I fell asleep.

Where are we?

We're all done camping.

We're about to head back to Yamanashi.

What?

You were asleep for two whole days.

Two days?!

I kept trying to wake you up.

You gotta keep up.

I bought you some souvenirs, and we got tons of pictures.

Let's look at them on our way home.

Yeah.

I-Izu camping...

Stop tormenting Nadeshiko, you lying sisters.

Rin!

Sorry we're late, Shima-san.

Not at all.

Thank you for driving, Sensei.

Riding so far must've been tough.

What route did you take?

I drove down West Izu, by the water.

Rin-chan...

Where am I?

What day is it?

A-Are you all right, Nadeshiko?

Time to eat!

Yum!

The sweet-and-spicy sauce and the camembert cheese work so well with the fried alfonsino.

Right?

I've always wanted to try this.

I can die happy now.

There must be more you want to do first.

Hey, it looks like octopus legs.

It's a crayfish.

That's a shrimp.

You even went to Ryugukutsu Cave, huh?

Jouyama was about the only geospot we got to see along the way.

We bought some raw wasabi at the roadside station, though.

Yeah! The wasabi ice cream was great!

Wasabi ice cream?!

I want some, too!

Izu's known for wasabi ice cream.

There'll be plenty more on the way.

Oh, the loop bridge was fun, too.

It was like a roller coaster.

Whoa.

The real "whoa" here is that all the rocking didn't wake you up.

Rin visited two geospots, and we visited one.

We can't make it to all of them, but it'd be nice to see the big ones.

Yeah.

Are we going to the Dougashima tombolo the day after tomorrow?

Yeah.

I heard it's best right around noon.

Aoi-chan, what's a tombolo?

It's a kind of pork jowl.

What's it taste like?

Lying comes as easily to Inuko as breathing.

And Mini Inuko lies about not knowing what a tombolo is.

This is how the lying sisters work.

So scary, Aki-chan...

You two are overthinking it.

All right, let's go shopping for camp supplies.

Woo!

Woo.

Open 24 hours

Manpuku Shoten

Is that it, Nadeshiko-chan?

Yup. Premium Shimoda...
