Japan’s Rabbit Island (Ōkunoshima) is a 15 min ferry ride from Tadaumi Port, the JR train station a 2 min walk from there so its really convenient.

  1. I didn't know that there's rabbit island. All the while, I only know cat island somewhere near Kyushu.

  2. I used to spend all summer when I was young. Thank you so much. BTW, there were no rabbits when I was growing up.

  3. The spider god got mad from last night. Rabbits are cute. Rio will be chasing them on your next trip. Thanks John.

  4. The sound of thunder in the background with views of the misty hills is just beautiful and makes me thirsty…😍😍😍

  5. Love the goofy- fun spirit of this livestream, it's reminiscent of some earlier OIJ outings. Thank you for spotlighting things to do beyond the regular tourist destinations "other" channels discuss. Your imagination is appreciated. Hope that Baby Leo grows up with it as well.

  6. my daughter's favorite place in Japan….she hasn't stopped talking about her visit there 5 years ago.

  7. Hilarious but same time great stream 😎Those rabbits were so cute 🐇🐇, they followed you everywhere lol 😅Thank you for sharing 👍!!!

  8. John, do the rabbits have fleas? The animals that used to visit me in my backyard had ticks mostly. The little bear that came daily for birdseed had so many on one ear but we were able to get them off. No, it wasn't easy lol. All the rabbits remind me of the story Watership Down. Take one home for Leo! 🐰

  9. Thanks, John, for the livestream. Just watched it. The place remains me of an offshore island near Singapore. Cute rabbits.

  10. aww damn such a bad luck with all that rain …

    did you have the chance to see some more later on ? like most people seem to only walk from the Ferry Terminal to the Hotel like you did and thats it but there are some other interesting places and lots of ruins that wait to be explored.

  11. The whole Island was a big chemical weapons factory until WW II , now the island is rebranded as Rabbit Island. It's understandable that John is not comfortable talking about certain dark sides of Japan, but he could have mentioned in the stream , heck there is a poisonous gas museum he walked by on road to the hotel.
