  A few years ago i did the same thing, i decided to fly back to my home town to visit my grandfather for no particular reason. It was great to see him, have lunch and catch up. I returned home and two weeks  later he was gone. I'm so thankful i made that choice to visit him for no other reason than i could. You are so lucky to still have a grandfather and its awesome to see you visiting him, cherish these visits as you never know when it will be for the last time.

  Grandparents are pure gold! I&apos;ve lost all my 4 grandparents now, it is important to spend time with them and their wisdom! Happy to see another different place far from the city chaos Asuka!<br>I liked the &quot;nostalgia mood&quot; of this video, it is evident how much you are tied to your roots, and it&apos;s a positive thing!

  Oh how nice of you to buy gifts for the nurses, that touched my heart..I cried when I saw you praying at the grave site.. we do that here too in the USA.Awe the restaurant is a log cabin, my husband and I have a log cabin in Vermont, USA where we spend our vacations there and now that we are both retired (I&apos;m 74) we spend lots of time there. &nbsp;In the winter we go to ride our snowmobiles.our cabin is in the green mountain area if you want to google it. Awe showing us the baby birds was so rewarding. I cherish your advice to see them as often as you can everyone watching this video take note see your family....❤❤❤❤. Thank you until next time..

  I enjoyed tagging along on your journey, Asuka. Japan is a beautiful country and the Japanese people and their cultures are much admired by me and most of the world. Stay close to and cherish your family. Wishing you all many happy years.
