Great video…love the new Sunflower ferry! 🥰🥰
Wonderful video thank you ,I love these videos ferry and the frozen food actually looked yummy .Theres one problem they didn’t play the song 🎼so I had to sing it myself 😂Love from Australia ❤
Ichiban Ferry. Nice blue color.
This is the most beautiful ferry ever!!! Thank you for your work. We appreciate your sore feet.
The egg-shaped objects attached to the tables are to provide something to hold on to in the event of rough seas. Love the channel!
Ship seems nice, but absence of restaurant is kinda sad.
This new ferry is beautiful😍 I'm not surprised you couldn't sleep, it must have been an exciting experience😉 Thanks for sharing it🥰
こんにちわ。
ハク（日本一人旅）をカムイに倒したんですね。
よし、歌おう…

レストランがない??
それは強盗です、今では自動販売機のカレーがあればそれを食べなければなりません。
カレーがなければハクもいない（日本一人旅）、ハクはカレーのために生きている。
彼はレストランがないことにがっかりするでしょう!!
これからあなたにぴったりのニックネームを見つけなければなりません…何か提案はありますか??
そして見てください、テーブルの上に卵があります!!
待って ！！
フネ子と節子はどこですか？
フネコはきっとどこかにいるはずだ。
客船デッキは1つしかないのに、カムイには複数の階層を持つ壮大なアトリウムがあるようには見えませんでしたか??しかし、あなたが示した入り口エリアは 1 つだけです。
すべてのキャビンは 1 つのデッキ上にあり、分散していませんか?
到着した先にはハクが待っているかもしれません。おそらく彼は別の航海に行っていた/現在も航海中だろう。先ほど彼がそのことについて話していたのは知っています。
航海ツアーお疲れ様でした。
ありがとう
I wonder what the fancy rooms on the ship look like. They must be great brand new. Thanks for showing us the Kamuy. 🙂
Beautiful..thank you!❤✨️
I don’t understand how this is even a Sunflower ferry. It doesn’t have the traditional escalator entrance and no restaurant. Even the livery isn’t the traditional all white with the Sunflower logo. And no Sunflower song? OK…..that might be an acceptable thing since hearing it on repeat does get kinda annoying.
