    Mood determined by the level of life endangerment...makes sense! Made me laugh! <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTJWs3ISZjQ&amp;t=624">10:24</a>

    I love your videos, the perfect mix of scenery, biking and sharing food experience and whatever quirky things you’re up to. <br><br>I’ve kept meaning to put a joke on your New Zealand trip about the incredible amount of retro bakery food you ate. All of those pies!!

    Find yourself someone who looks at you the way Court looks at a Famichiki Sandwich.

    Another awesome video. I was afraid you forgot to finish showing us your adventure. Thanks for sharing.

    You two are strong climbers! It seems like the mountains are no problems for you guys. I would be stopping every 20m! 😆

    Yay new video. I’m shocked you guys are still in Japan after no videos for 3 months. It’s crazy and lucky you all have been cycling for 30 plus days in Japan alone. How amazing. I went to Kanazawa but you two really saw Kanazawa.

    Kia ora. Beautiful areas to visit. Thank you for sharing. Wonder if it was may when you visited Kamikochi. Would love to visit when there are little crowds.

    First of all I liked the video with your shared experiences, again. Thanks for that.<br>Very recognizable situation on the road being blocked. Besides having this encountered often it brings back a memory... Reminds me of a phrase of Shakespeare&apos;s MacBeth: &quot;Stepped in so far that, should I wade no more, returning were as tedious as go o&apos;er&quot;. But those challenges are the adventures you encounter while cycling.😁<br>Also the tunnels are things I &apos;d like to avoid. I have bad experience in them. You don&apos;t know wether the traffic is coming from ahead or from the back. And that terrible notice from heavy trucks and even more those sportscars that, for &quot;fun&quot;, fully step on the throttle.😣 I guess I&apos;m kind of traumatised by these experiences.<br><br>By the way my journey to NZ and return flights, are booked.

    I’m going out on a limb by saying the “peanut” stuff you were eating maybe didn’t have peanuts, but instead was dulce de leche, a popular spread in South America. There, it’s made from cow’s milk, or, to a lesser degree, from goat’s milk. &nbsp;Slowly heat milk and sugar in a giant pan and reduce it until it begins to caramelize. Once it browns and thickens, remove from heat, package it and it sells like hotcakes. In the early 90s it began to show up in the US, marketed as a compliment to apple slices. I’m not sure where the peanut comes into the picture! <br>Anyway, all apologies if I am wrong; I really like your videos. Entertaining, informative, and high quality production. Good job!👏
