what's up people
today is a special day it's our fifth year anniversary
is it gonna be romantic?
No
A thing of groceries here
And a cereal box
people look at us like we're crazy
so we're moving the boat around the island
this is our last week in USVI
yes we're looking for wi-fi
because we haven't had any wi-fi since dominican republic it's been awful
we purchased an additional sim card with uh t-mobile uh in puerto rico
because we need internet extremely bad so we can work
and we almost spent that already and now that we're gonna move
we haven't been able to watch movies so now we're like watching we have a hard drive full of movies and so all of them
they're not illegal they're all but
but they're super old they're like from 1950 1975 or something so they're really old movies
so we need to stock up we haven't watched netflix in forever we haven't watched youtube in ages
man we feel like we're i don't know luxuries
luxuries of the land
but that's what we're doing we're in the look out for WIFI
oh my god we just got we just got stop stop stop
wait for it
let's see if
oh my god it works okay
stop yeah anchor here
right in the middle of the channel
we're gonna anchor in the middle of the channel
we've had a spider, hello
hello
can you tell us about your
yes so we have Rodolfo the spider
she's been on board for a couple of months and she's always like around the chartplotter
and right now she's right there
so yeah we've seen this spider for a long time uh so she probably
has been traveling with us in miami or something
so our stay here in st thomas is coming to an end
today's friday tomorrow morning we're gonna be leaving to antigua
we're gonna go grocery shopping
we're gonna go have a special lunch because today is a special day
it's our fifth year anniversary i don't know how to say it but yeah so five years of marriage
so we are leaving the boat we're leaving the dogs with the ac on
we're gonna go get some lunch
we're gonna see if we can eat some sushi and i put the scooters in the dinghy
we're gonna go to a grocery store after lunch and yeah we should be ready
so we just made it to the marina to the dingy dock
we just tied the dinghy, we bought a lock because there's a lot of dinky stolen here in the caribbean
so it feels pretty good to have that lock
we got our scooters and we will be going for a wonderful and very romantic dinner for our fifth year anniversary
just kidding
is it gonna be romantic
no
so we just ordered
we didn't have sushi because it was too expensive and when we eat sushi
we want to have like eight different plates of sushi and each plate was like super expensive
so now we're eating a cheeseburger
which we don't normally have
we ran out of veggie cheeseburger / veggie burger so we're gonna have that
and they make beer behind me
is it good?
yeah it's pretty good
what do you think?
ipa
guys so we are at the supermarket we are doing grocery shopping
and we just found plant-based alternatives which we eat a lot of
and we hadn't found anything since we left the U.S.
this is the most exciting moment of our lives
lots of produce
and i don't know how we're gonna go back on those scooters on that but yeah we'll see how we go
explain to me what you're doing right now
so right now we have a box full of butternut squash
groceries
in a scooter in a island
people look at look at us like we're crazy
and i have another thing of groceries here
and a cereal box in my dress
we had to go up a mountain down a mountain like big mountain
i was like all the time on the brakes and then i remembered in colombia since there's a lot of mountains too
when people do that on the cars and they hit the brakes they the brakes go like super hot
and i'm like oh my god what if i'm left without breaks i think this is the most
exciting grocery shopping that we've done so far
since we've been living on the boat
so we just put away all of the groceries we have a trash we're gonna drop it at the marina and
go to the second store for more groceries
baby what'd you buy
so we have a cart full of dog food
no i'm kidding
uh we purchased all the food for like worth for like two or three months because it's a lot
cheaper to buy it here than in the other islands
so that's why we bought a lot of food here
good morning people so today we are heading out to antigua it looks pretty calm
the forecast is four-foot waves every seven seconds we're gonna try to first go upwind like
go with the motor and then once we get to like almost Anguilla we will turn and we'll sail down
so this morning i have to prep my other fishing rod
the new one i'm gonna put the line
so i got 80 pound line braided line
hopefully very strong we don't lose any fish
and the reel, it's hardcore it's super big i'll show you guys later
when we go sailing this is like my me time
this is the only time
because here's the thing when i have internet connection i feel like working a lot and like i'm a workaholic
so the fact that i'm like forced to not have internet it's my time to just do me
and my time to
just focus on growing and just doing things that i normally wouldn't do like reading or podcast
30 minutes into our trip and it started to rain
so yeah i guess nothing we could do
looks like a big cloud so maybe in 20 minutes it should be gone and then the day should be opening up
when it's raining and we're sailing it gets so boring because we can't be outside
we can be seeing the dolphins the fishes
just like this inside working watching the rain come down
yes day number two
it's already five o'clock it's been really rough
we have put up the main sail like three times lowered it
now the wind is starting to shift again
we have done 150 nautical miles an average speed of 4.3 for 34 hours and a half we're going pretty slow
now we are passing by St. Kitts or something like that
it's like a big volcano
it's pretty nice and
yeah hopefully we will be arriving like uh 5 a.m tomorrow morning
ah so guys
we're almost arriving and i have not touched the camera because this has been
the worst passage that we have ever done
i think right
not only has it been the longest
but it has been awful man we had like all the time head on the waves big big head on waves
like smashing on the boat i should have recorded more for your viewing pleasure but
half of the time i felt like throwing up
the other half of the time i feel like jumping off the boat
and the other time the remaining all the time
i was just sleeping just trying to get over it as fast as possible
but we're arriving so we're happy
we're exited!
how do you feel captain
very happy
and tired
i'm ready to eat something and get some sleep
yeah we want to get the checking done
and then boom call it a day
we're ready to anchor settle down not be moving anymore
and yeah
and the dogs they're also ready to not be moving
i think they're just as tired as we are
captain
we have arrived
so from what we can see it looks beautiful, really beautiful
super nice houses the mountains are pretty
we just called uh the officer from customs and they're gonna come by to the boat
and we'll see how it goes
so andrea is filling up the paperwork
yes
to clear in Antigua
so once you arrive you call in customs and they tell you to anchor
and they'll bring up the paperwork we fill it up and then we go to the office
both of us we have to go
we are moving around the island
we're gonna go in search of some kiteboarding spots
we're going with the wind and with the waves
it's pretty calm
we are going about five knots with the main sail and the jib out
we have the jib to this side and the main sail to this one we're going downwind
so the winds directly from behind
water looks pretty nice
super clear
bahamas style
so we have the hamburgers
hamburgers they're cooking and i don't know where we're gonna anchor
we had a recent change of plans and yeah we'll see it
depends on the spot once we're getting there we'll see
oh let me show you guys my fishing rod my huge fishing rod
look at it
we got chef andrea
making something for the burgers what are you making
im making
onions with salted onions with mushrooms so we can add it to the burgers
and we're happy to be sailing because if you guys have noticed our past couple of videos
all the time we've just been motoring miserably against against waves which really sucks but
today we're actually sailing so it's really nice super comfy we're going with the waves
this is the perfect kind of sailing
we really want to get to just like a spot where we can stay for a month a month and a half and just chill
and settle down for a minute because it feels like we haven't stopped moving
it feels like we have just been non-stop like not doing what we actually like doing
which is like kiting or snorkeling or doing the kind of things that we like doing
you probably don't feel it because you've seen that in all our videos we're always doing something
and like in the previous ones we were in u.s virgin islands with our friends with my family
but like that's only a few moments of what actually goes on like our entire life
so i don't know if it makes sense
look at that water
crystal clear water and we are headed that way between those islands
so we're gonna be crossing between those islands right here
so let me give you an update on the burgers andrea show me the burgers
yup we're making my burger which is a Beyond Meat burger
and alejo is having turkey burgers
turkey burgers not turkey turkey burgers
and we already have here the onions and the mushrooms
we're warming up the bread we're having tomato our sauces
because it's not the same without the sauces
you know there's like a lot of ups ups what do you call it
ups and downs in the boat life
and i think we were going through a down and i didn't even realize it
do you think we were going through a down
totally
i think we were totally going through a down
we had a lot of rough days
oh so many rough days
and we just need to stop for a couple days
we need to stop and we need to chill and we need to see something this beautiful to feel like
like take that energy again to feel like okay this is why we do this you know like it's
it's this beautiful ocean it's the awesome moments but we hadn't seen that in forever so
we were going through a low and we didn't know it but yeah
here we are getting our our energy back getting our
we hadn't had burgers in forever too
so burgers always make alejo happy
very very happy
that's it
so guys we are having laundry we are doing it is laundry day
and i was just updating our instagram followers because i think we've been a little disconnected from social media
in general i think we're just being too tired from like all the moving and all the stuff that we told
you guys about yesterday um
so yeah we just updated everyone so follow us on instagram and facebook for real-time updates
because obviously as you know here on youtube we don't uh record on like real time
because it takes time for us to record for us to edit for like all that good stuff but
yeah follow us if you want to stay up to date with us as to what we're doing like real time
and today we're doing laundry we are just getting a lot of things done and i was just checking the wind
and it seems like it might be windy and if it's windy
oh no it's not
so i was just checking the wind but the wind is so bipolar man it was saying that it was 14 knots going from 10
10 knots goes back to 14.
i hope it gets windy i really want a kiteboard if you guys um know me a little bit
of having or have been watching our channel first a little bit
you know that i love kiteboarding we live on a boat because we wanted to kiteboard more and we haven't done it
and so yeah that makes me really sad i really want to do it and hopefully we're going to have make it eventually to an amazing spot
where we can kiteboard because that is my passion that is what makes me feel alive
so yeah that's about it we'll see if it continues
up maybe i can get to kite again
and if it doesn't then it'll be another day
so we are anchored out here in front of this crazy resort it's like little bungalows up in the mountain the nice view
pretty nice pretty nice day pretty calm
now we're gonna take a shower turn on the ac and go to sleep
