This film documents a number of trips and events from 1981-1983 including holidays to Japan and America as well as family weddings.
The film opens in a foreign city with a shot of a market followed by footage of a port. There is a large boat which can be seen leaving, possibly a cruise ship. There are a few small cafes around the town, and another ships leave port - the Castillo de Salvatierra.
A wedding takes place, and guests are gathered outside while the bride poses for photos. There is a brief scene at the reception where the bride and groom cut their wedding cake.
Next is another wedding, and again, wedding guests are gathered outside while the wedding party poses for pictures. At the reception, a large table is laid out with all the wedding gifts. Guests also sit outside in a garden where they enjoy the food from the reception.
The filmmaker has travelled to Japan and captured many scenic shots of traditional architecture and customs. This includes visiting temples and taking a boat trip along a river.
There is a large horse-drawn carriage which holds up to four people. It is pulled by many horses, and the driver navigates the carriage through the fields and over a stream.
There are brief scenes taken during a boat trip which include interior scenes on the small boat. They pull up close to a lock. Following this are shots of a flower and food market, most likely in a European town.
Many caravans are parked in a field. This is followed by footage of a bay in which many yachts sail. The film closes with various scenes of animals at the zoo.
