Laid-Back Camp (ゆるキャン△)

The view from the peak is amazing.

Yeah.

It is.

I'm going to take a panorama shot.

Slowly

I made it!

Good effort, Aki-chan.

So who won the race, anyway?

I did.

You're so childish, Nadeshiko-chan.

You could've gone easier on me.

The lion hunts the hare with all its might.

So anyway, Aki-chan, you owe us both drinks.

Dang... All right.

Hey, you made it.

These stairs are tough.

Those are the Izu Islands you can vaguely see over the horizon, huh?

That one's Toshima, and that big island is apparently Izu Oshima.

Izu Oshima, huh?

I want to try island camping someday, too.

Yeah.

Shima Rin in Shimane, camping on Izu Oshima.

It's a Shima Shima Shima camp trip.

Lame.

Come to think of it, there are plains past that mountain over there, too.

Apparently there's a legit treehouse there that was made by a treehouse designer.

Wow!

I wanna see the treehouse!

Yeah! A legit treehouse!

Staaare...

I don't think we'll have time to go now.

Of course not...

I knew Izu was huge, but it's super huge.

I know.

Now that I'm sitting still, I'm really cold.

You should have bundled up more before coming up here.

The sun will be setting soon.

Shall we get going?

Yeah.

Episode 10 Izu Camping!! On the Way

Now we just need to make it to the campsite.

Although it's a pretty long drive.

Come to think of it, the only camping-ish activity we've done so far is shopping.

It's all good. Outclub quality is all about the chill factor.

Sensei, what about a hot spring?

Okay, how about we visit on the way?

Could I ask you to look for a hot spring that's available for day visits?

Got it.

Let's see...

I never knew Izu had so many hot springs.

You're right.

That's crazy.

Izu was an underwater volcano long ago.

So it has a lot of hot springs.

Honshu

20 million years ago

And a lot of the geospots were created by volcanic activity, too.

Oh, also, I don't want Shima-san to get cold after our bath,

so please try to find one close to the campsite.

I bet you'd freeze solid riding a bike right after a bath.

Freeze solid...

I'm ice cold.

Nadeshiko-chan, what do you think of this one?

Let's see.

"A natural hot spring formed on a pier."

-Feel the scenery of Nishiizu on your skin A hidden bath by the beach- A natural hot spring formed on a pier

"Let the sea breeze wash over you as you enjoy the Dougashima waters."

Nice! This place is so nice!

Right?

It's not that far from the campsite, either.

Dougashima Hot Spring is just two kilometers away.

We could watch the sun set as we take a dip.

So it's settled, then!

Rin-chan!

We're going to a hot spring called Dougashima Hot Spring up ahead.

Are you all right?

I'll make it.

It's not much farther. Hang in there.

Yeah...

I'm suddenly feeling sleepy.

I did leave in the middle of the night, after all.

No, no.

We're almost there.

Two kilometers to the hot spring!

Finally made it.

Long ride, huh, Rin-chan?

All right, let's go warm up in the hot spring.

Women

Man, this is the best.

The sunset is gorgeous.

Good thing we made it by sundown, huh?

I know. We just barely made it.

We wouldn't have gotten to see this if we'd followed our original plan.

It got a little stressful, but we made our lemons into lemonade.

Is that island Sanshiroujima, where the tombolo is?

Looks like it.

I can't wait for the tombolo tomorrow.

It's going to taste like pork jowl, right?

That's right.

We'll see the tombolo around noon, and it's not far from the campsite,

so we can stay up all night tonight!

I got plenty of sleep on the way.

I'm ready to stay up really late.

What should we do?

What should we do tonight?!

Rin-chan's been pretty quiet.

She's been devoured by the hot spring.

She must be really tired after riding all the way from Minobu.

She's in the perfect condition for a bath, in a way.

Rin-chan's experienced cold, sleepiness, and exhaustion.

It's like Moped's Journey!

This stuff's the best after a bath!

We have an old fart here.

I know, right?!

Nishiizu Replacement Driver Service

Thank you.

Three Noguchi-sans...

*If you drink, be sure to hire a taxi or a replacement driver

If you drink, be sure to hire a taxi or a replacement driver.

Sorry we're so late.

Not a problem.

There are only two groups today.

Feel free to camp wherever you like.

Thank you very much.

We're still by the water!

The sun's already set, so we should split up and start prepping.

Aoi-chan and I will start making dinner.

We'll set up the tent, then.

Rin.

She's already in sleep mode!

Whoa, you're right!

Rin-chan, are you going to sleep already?

I'm about to make dinner with dried alfonsino.

I know, I know...

I know.

Chill out.

I'm just resting my eyes because I'm tired...

Rin-chan!

O-Oh, yeah! The campfire!

Let's make our campfire!

I'll help!

Now, then...

We start with these.

Pine cones?

Hello

Hello!

We use these as our fire starter and put smaller twigs on top first.

Then we pile bigger logs on top.

See? It was easy, right?

I thought campfires were harder to make.

Is this your first time making one?

We made a bonfire with fallen leaves at school,

but this is my first time doing it myself.

It's so warm, Rin-chan.

Yeah...

Aoi-chan!

Rin-chan has passed on.

First, pour a cup of olive oil into a pot.

Add minced garlic, chili peppers, and herb salt, and cook on low heat.

When it gives off the tasty aroma of garlic, throw in some eggplant,

champignons, shimeji mushrooms, and garlic, all chopped bite-sized.

Bring to medium heat.

When the eggplant is soft, add the octopus, shrimp, wieners, paprika, and young corn,

as well as Chinese yams and broccoli that have been parboiled and strained.

Continue cooking.

Lastly, season with salt, pepper, and parsley,

and you're done.

Done!

The garlic smells so good.

It looks delicious.

Smells yummy.

Sensei, we're ready, too!
