A bit jittery, no TBC?
0:45 nothing like a big Gong to welcome you to the Northern Pacific. Also, that ambient gamelan track at 31:47 is amazing

During this time, Japan was experiencing an unusually prosperous economy due to the bubble economy, and overseas travel was booming.
In Japan, a trip to Hawaii has long been the dream vacation of ordinary people, but trips to nearby Guam were also popular as a more affordable way to experience the resort atmosphere.
As you can see in the video, it seems like the perfect destination for young people to travel.
