One team goes to an amusement park. They are going to ride on a BIG roller coaster and draw sticks to determine if they will sit in front, in the middle, or at the back. Natsumi Abe got one of the back seats but she still appears terrified.
The place also has sea animals.
A penguin takes an interest in Natsumi Abe.
The next ride they are going on, called the "Blue Fall." It's one of those rides where the people are strapped in, taken to a considerable height, then the ride drops fast and far. It's 107 meters high. This makes it about 350 feet high. Apparently it drops at 125 km/hr, which is very close to 80 miles per hour.
The girls draw sticks to see which two get the "privilege" of going first.
Natsumi Abe goes up and Kei Yasuda goes a second time. (She really seems to enjoy the rides!)
To give you a good idea of the height, they are look down on the roller coaster they road earlier.
Abe is really shaken up by the ride, basically in tears.
The girl who is serving as their "guide" apparently thought she was immune, but she's "coaxed" into taking the ride.
Notice her whistle is sort of "free-floating." Yoshizawa Hitomi, though, steadfastly refuses to get on the ride.
One team goes to Yokohama's Chinatown for an "eating fest."
The girls then go to a place that has a show after three of them had ridden in a human-pulled cart.
They are then served some (probably very delicious) deserts.
The girls stop at another place to eat.
The chef, who has won a championship in preparing one of the food items, shows the girls how he does it. The girls then get to try to do it themselves.
One team goes to an animal farm. They start off going for a ride on a horse.
Then they get to race some pigs. Each girl tries to encourage her pig, but the pigs end up running way ahead of the girls on their own.
The girls then get to feed some baby lambs.
One girl has been dressed in a costume for a while. She got to feed the grown-up sheep.
Seventh Generation audition update.
Back to the tours. For some reason two of the girls were unable to go on any of the tours, so the other girls have brought them back some treats.
