Overview
Daniel and Chihiro stayed at a glamping or camping facility with four beds, a stocked fridge, cabins, and a lake, where Daniel noted the surroundings resembled a golf course or the Teletubbies set.
The trip included outdoor activities such as walking on the grass, eating ice cream, and canoeing on the lake, which were curtailed by rain and thunder.
While Chihiro visited an onsen, Daniel had an awkward encounter with a staff member preparing dinner, which featured limited beef skewers, salad, bread, soup, and a seafood pot.
