Then they find a lovely café and meet a maniac master, who takes his coffee seriously. They admired the rich taste of coffee. After the coffee shop, they head to the tea shop because Nishio-city is famous for Tea, but the shop is closed. Therefore, they go to the memorial park and find a clock tower, which has a button and starts playing local songs. They choose “Nishio de LaLa” (LaLa at Nishio City) randomly and dance with the pop melody. They had so much fun. At the end, they have seafood lunch and go to see a sunset by “Tuk-Tuk”!!
It is a beautiful scenery and they look back to their teenage years with nostalgic feelings.

ふれあいと笑いと優しさに満ちた、自由気ままな旅番組「ウドちゃんの旅してゴメン」。
いつもながらのゆる～い空気を大切に今日もどこかで旅を続けています。
放送17年目に突入した2020年。毎年恒例の年明け一発目の「冬の〇〇シリーズＳＰ」も10回目！
今回の旅の舞台は「冬の三河湾」と題して抹茶で有名な六万石の城下町の愛知県西尾市からスタートし、うなぎ養殖の一色町や吉良上野介ゆかりの町・吉良町、そして竹島水族館や深海魚グルメで知られる蒲郡市などの三河湾エリア。
今回のシークレットゲストは、弾けるような笑顔がまぶしい俳優・佐藤隆太さんと、豪快な神スイングで知られる稲村亜美さん。2人の登場に、のけ反るほど驚くウドちゃん。
西尾駅前付近はウドちゃんが過去に4回訪れていますが、実に5年ぶり。記憶を探り探り旅をはじめます。
まず最初に訪れたのは、過去4回のうち毎回訪れている「ピザ＆ステーキ・あい」。ここは昭和レトロな佇まいで、アンティークを収集している優しいご主人に癒されてきました。
ご主人に別れを告げ、歩いていると隆太さんが気になった「フレーバーコーヒー」という可愛らしいキャラクターの看板のお店へ。このお店は自家焙煎したコーヒー豆を販売するだけでなく、独自の見解で抽出の仕方までこだわる、可愛い看板からは想像もできないほどのマニアック店主のお店でした。そのお味も驚くほどの美味しさに3人もただただ驚くばかり。隆太さんが気になり、ふらりと立ち寄ったお店でしたが、コーヒーだけにその奥の深さに感動すら覚える3人でした。
西尾市はお茶の町ということで、せっかくなのでお茶やお茶スイーツをいただきたいと、聞き込み。西尾城跡である歴史公園近くにお店があると聞いて向かいます。しかし、この日はお店が定休日。残念な気持ちを一変してくれたのが、公園内にある時計台。この時計台にはご当地ソングが数種類収録されていて、ボタンを押すと流れるシステム。「西尾小唄」や「茶摘み音頭」などがある中で、何気なく押したのは「西尾でLaLa」というタイトル。
体が自然にリズムにのって、3人ともノリノリ状態！一気に気分を楽しくさせてくれました。
通常のタクシーで三河湾方面である西尾市一色町へ向かい、観光案内所で教えてもらった「さかな広場」で食事をしようという事に。さらには、「トゥクトゥク」がその場所に来てくれるという事で一石二鳥な旅のプランが決まります！
3人はトゥクトゥクで西川さんおススメの浜辺に向かいます。少し冷たい海風を浴びながら海岸線を走るトゥクトゥク。
三河湾に太陽が沈みかけ、夕暮れの浜辺に到着すると、素晴らしい夕景の三河湾が待っていました。
まるで青春の1ページのような風景・・・。そんな風景にセンチメンタルな気分になったのか、初恋の思い出エピソードを話しはじめる3人。そして、最後に運転してくれた西川さんに話を聞くと・・・意外な？答えが返ってきて3人もびっくり！
西尾駅前からスタートして5年ぶりのお店「あい」に始まり、美しい三河湾を眺めながら「こい」の話で終わった、なんとも不思議な道筋の旅でした。

The show covers closely on a big project in which “Onchan,” the mascot for HTB, brings snow from Hokkaido to Taiwan and Thailand respectively, together with a student from each country.

With the help of a professional snowman maker in Abira Town, which is famous for snowman making, in the central part of Hokkaido, the student made a 40-cm-tall pretty snowman. Was she able to bring the snowman to Taiwan successfully before it melted away?

Her name is Saki Inagaki. She is an entertainer who dresses as the character Asuka from the anime "Evangelion." Saki left Japan to travel abroad! Her blog "Trek Across Europe" began in Vienna, Austria with the goal of covering checkpoints in ten countries on the way toward her final destination, Portugal! This special episode covers a day in Saki's blog trek, jam-packed with highlights in Italy.
On her journey, her blog and dice are her inseparable companions. Saki must update and check her blog at 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. each day. The number of comments she receives on her blog determines the funding for her travels. However, the number of comments does not translate directly into funds. The roll of the dice and the spin of the coin ultimately determine how much she will receive.
Without a translator, and unable to speak English, how does she continue her journey in Europe as she battles her fears and loneliness abroad?

她的名字是樱稻垣早希。是装扮成动画新世纪福音战士女主角明日香的女搞笑艺人。
在这趟旅游中，和早希密不可分的，就是博客和骰子。旅程中，早希每天都会更新博客，并且根据留言数来决定可以使用的旅费。但是旅费不直接用留言换算，通过掷骰子和抛硬币来决定。这趟博客之旅全靠留言笔数和骰子和硬币来决定机会与命运。在各位观众的踊跃留言支持外，另一个支撑帮助早希的力量是，萍水相逢的人们。
早希没有翻译，不懂英文，只身国外，虽然有十万日元的旅费，但可能因为一次骰子的偏差，美好旅程的命运就会改变。在这趟克服孤独与恐惧，努力坚持的旅程中，遇到了奇迹般地邂逅。
虽然语言不通，但心灵的交流却无时不刻------敬请观赏这如梦般的美丽故事。
