Laska, do you want to go for a hike?
No? Car ride? That's not where the car is.
[Maddie singing to the tune of The Dixie Cups - "Chapel of Love"] Going for a hike and we are, gonna climb some mountains!
TANGERINEYS! [Laughter] What's up
guys!? It is a beautiful day in the Ajijic neighborhood! And we decided we wanted
to take Laska and go for a hike. to get to this trailhead, the one, the only one
that we really know about. You take a left or right, depending on the direction
you're coming. At Donas Donuts -
You go up the mountain at Donas Donuts. Yeah, basically you go until
the street tees off. And I'm pretty sure you can turn right or left and find a
trailhead. Mush! Mush! Mush! Mush! [Laughter]
So this is our first time hiking with Laska in Ajijic.
But also our first time hiking with her in a non desert terrain. I think
the closest would be like Flagstaff or something, where it's sort of more
foresty. How do you think this compares? There must be a lot more
smells here, in the jungle, than there is in the desert.
Because she's like "Need to get that smell, that smell!"
She wants to dive in every
bush. Go into every questionable corner. And with the amount of bugs that are
here. Like caterpillars, and flying things, and crawling things, it's a little more
nerve-wracking because we don't really know what she's gonna get into or try to
eat that might be poisonous.
It does get a little bit humid up here with all the plants and everything. Which
no complaints, the nature around here is beautiful!
Laska doesn't seem to mind either!
[Laughter]
So we got picked up on the Carratera, in this bus.
And then, it turned into town. We
didn't want that. How do we know which buses go into town and which just go
straight down the highway? Thank you. Thanks, see you later.
If I had to take a gander, I'm gonna say that it's
the yellow buses that go throughout town, so unless you need to go through
town, don't get on those. Because I'm pretty sure a 15-minute bus ride just
took like 45 minutes. Yeah, we could be totally wrong about that, but if you know
which buses stay on the Carratera or which go through town,
Please let us know! Help a couple Tangerineys out!
It's a trepidating, tantilizing, Tangerine Travels imposter!
Imposter! So we finally got this
hot sauce that I'm pretty sure is like maybe my favorite ever! Yeah, I think it's
my favorite too! But it's this Chile de Arbol Lago de Chapala brand. So good! But we
got three of these guys for 26 pesos. I'm super excited to try these other two
Because this one is just so good! Mmm-hmm.
Oh, and if you haven't guessed already, we are now
in Chapala! [Laughter] We wanted to check out the vendors here again because they have so
many of them along the malecon, because we have some amazing news! we got to meet
up with one of our patrons, Shawn, and he was nice enough to lend us a camera to
use for our videos, and we were really excited about it! Because we've been
looking for a point-and-shoot for a long time, but honestly, we just haven't had
the budget. And we have to be very conscious of that because if we blow all our
our money on a camera, that means no more traveling! So it kind of came at the most
perfect time that he's lending us this super, super nice camera! So if you're noticing
some different angles, close-up shots, super crisp footage, it's probably
because of that camera! Thank you so much Shawn, we are so excited!
Alright guys, so we need to be real with you.
We've been to Chapala a half dozen times now, or more.
And we've eaten at exactly one
restaurant. I'm sure there's so many great restaurants here. But there's this
like crazy magnetic force that just draws us to these free margaritas! [Laughing]
So we need your help. Please help us. We have a problem. [Laughter]
Not a margarita problem. A problem that we've never tried any other restaurants in Chapala.
What are your favorite
restaurants in Chapala? Where should we go to? Let us know, comment below.
But we've been here, I don't know, quite a few times now.
We always get the same entree 90-peso
chicken fajitas. And they come with unlimited free margaritas. It's hard to
pass up. It's kind of one of the benefits of being in Mexico! Margaritas and
tequila. We were in Chapala on Easter Sunday, it's video number 70, seven zero if you
want to look it up. The first time we were ever here in Chapala. And we videotaped
this kid who was just awesome! Sorry, but videotaped?
Yes. On tape? It was on tape?
Yes, it was on tape. Not digital at all. Continue.
[Laughter] And at this time, I was like "This kid's gonna be
a star!" So much energy, he's such a great performer! Oh yes. So, well, we were here
again, obviously. And he was there again! Well, he went to a table who looked like
his family, so we're like "Is this the same kid?" Well, he starts singing out of
nowhere. [Laughter] I had to go be like "Hey, you're in our video, go ahead and look here." Would
you mind singing for us again?
[Laughter] He's so good! Man!
Hello, I'd like this one. 50? Yes.
Thank you. Thank you. Have a good day!
[Jordan doing a strange, almost inaudible, accent] Alright, will you tell the fine people what you got?
Sorry, what? [Laughter]
Well, so we're looking for a case for
this camera. And it seems like they did some etching? Or I don't really know what you call this.
In somewhat of a leather-type material.
Chapala, Jalisco.
For holding our fancy camera.
Oooh! [Laughter]
[Jordan, in an Irish accent] That's a nice camera case you got there!
[In an Irish accent] Why thank you! Thank you very much!
So we got some alebrijes. Alebrijes?
Yeah. No, alegrias!
We got some alegrias. 10 pesos each. If you're trying to
go back to Ajijic from Chapala, the only bus stop that we know of is right across
the street from Modelrama, I think it's like a beer store or something. Modelorama?
Yeah. I'm sure there's more but this is the one we know about.
We got french toast, fruit plate, two coffees,
Mushrooms with Ajillo, is that right? Yeah, like garlic
mushrooms. And then what did you get?
Enfrijoladas. And all that came to 187 (pesos) before
tip. It's a lot. A lot of food for not a lot of pesos.
Okay, clearly the coffee has not set in yet.
Thank you. Thank you. Have a good day!
So I'm actually kind of astonished that we've been in Mexico for over seven
months now, or about seven months. And we've never had our car washed while in
a restaurant until now. And it cost 35 pesos. Probably because we never bring
our car. Probably because we walk everywhere and don't drive that often. [Laughter]
Oh my goodness grape juice, this is a giant glass of wine!
We wanted to stop and get some food on the way to this festival that
may rhyme with bobos. Lobo. May rhyme with Lobo.
[Laughter] And we were going to go to Chili Verde, which is a really
good restaurant right in the square here. But, it turns out they closed early today
because they ran out of food. I've never even heard of that happening. [Laughter]
But anyway, we ended up going to another restaurant
that's in the square. This is our first time here. I'm not sure what this place
is called. I was able to get a plate of enchiladas for about 80 pesos. And
considering these restaurants right around the plaza are generally some of
the most expensive in town.
[Maddie rapping to the tune of "French Prince of Bel Air] We were minding our own business and going about our day.
When all of a sudden, someone dropped a comment our way. They said I'm
unsubscribing from your channel because you sing when you talk. Yep that's it, I'm
sure gonna walk! Occasionally we get comments that we just have to laugh to.
They're too funny! One such comment was someone recently
saying that they're unsubscribing from our channel because they can't stand it. It
sounds like we're singing when we talk. And to that I say I'm sorry. [Maddie singing] And to that!
I say! We should do it more often!
[Laughter] You want singing, I will give you singing! One of the upsides of
walking everywhere, is that you get lots of exercise. And you get to see things
you wouldn't normally see from driving around. And one of the downsides is sometimes
this happens! Sometimes you notice that it's raining far ahead on the mountains,
And you think that you have enough time to walk home, but really, you get soaked!
And you get stuck in the pouring rain! All part of the adventure! So we went to this
awesome festival today! We thought it was going to be part of this video, but it
Way, way more awesome! That it had to be
its own video. So that's gonna be coming later. So if you haven't yet, please
subscribe to our Channel. Give this video a thumbs up if you liked
it! And by the way, we will be having a collab. Probably. Coming up in the next few
days when we travel to a new city!
So you have that to look for too as well. And!
GONG THAT BELL!
[Laughter] So you get notified the next time we put out a new video.
And we'll see you there!
