We’re spending the next 4 months traveling by plane instead of van and to kick off 2023, we’re off to Mérida, Mexico for two weeks! 🇲🇽 We flew from Austin to Mexico City to Mérida, with an interesting FAA hiccup along the way, plus tacos, of course! 😜

What an adventure leaving Austin! Excited to see your upcoming videos; I am not familiar at all with Mexico!
Mexico is not safe. Cheap vacation, on the bright side. Good luck!
Poor Kona, he will miss you
House rental was mint🇲🇽
Yes but your Airplane had to fly to AUS from some place in Mexico. That City may have had the weather. I suggest getting FlightAware app on your phone. You can see where your airplane is. #AirlineStaffHint
I'm so glad you guys got a break over the holidays, but we're happy to see you back in action!
Hello Adventurers😊😊, so happy that y'all made it to Mexico. However, did you save some tacos for us too😊😊😊😊? Of course not. Hoping that y'all are enjoying your vacation👍👍👍👍👍.
Love ❤️ a new wrinkle in travel plane vs van. Your little place for the week is so cute. The tacos look amazing .
Gone to Cancun in a few weeks. Totally new. Curious is there anywhere in Cancun or Mexico in general that you could compare to a beach on BayWatch? 😉
hola!!! Amigos como están en Mérida y en Mérida hay muchos cenotes para que naden y pacen bien tiempo
Just keep posting some videos
Love Mexico! I'm in Phoenix, so Mexico is a very good neighbor where I have visited often (Cancun 3X, and Ensenada on cruises from San Diego 3X). Nice start to 2023, get caught up on work (always something that needs to be done…), but take some time and enjoy the culture, food, and festivities while there. Cheers and Viva Mexico! Pete in AZ
I also flew on the day the FAA crashed. I was late 3 hours getting out of NYC and then my connection was pushed back 3 hours. But I finally made it to Guadalajara.
Hola 👋 buenos noche from New México🌶️🌵…Enjoy your vacaciones and I'm looking forward to your videos.
I used to travel two weeks in Mexico and I have been to Merida for a day. I definitely recommend Campeche if not too far. I personally love the temple ruins in Palenque. But it is a bit far from Merida😅
Come on, come to Papua, Indonesiahttps://youtu.be/xR5_y4q8fn0
Hi once again. Nice to see youve arrived in Merida. Hope you enjoy your working vacation. The scenery, beaches and the food, not to mention the warm weather. So nice you can travel fromTX to MX in a short period of time. Enjoy your stay!! R
Looking forward to your videos!
7:35 That's Celestún beach. Are you planning to go there?
What are the odds you two fly on the day they ground the plane. Sounds like you need to get a set of wings on good old brisket
