we last left you guys enjoying the remote beaches of bahia concepcion our
paddle boards finally hit the water we had a beautiful seaside shower and as
always there was lots of good old-fashioned home cookin'
since then we've driven the 600 kilometers from Mulege down the
Baja peninsula to Los Barriles. A little town we thought we'd just passed through has
quickly become an absolute favorite and today we're so excited to show you why
we arrived here as the Sun was going down last night and so we're in a little
bit of a sticky situation
let's go coffees are just running through our
bodies I'm in the mud with Beach so we don't know what to do what was your idea
babe oh this old guy staring at us well I'll spare you the details but you
can use your imagination on what that was like we arrived a little bit late
last night and got in around dark so we missed this little soft patch and
started spinning out it's not the worst situation but I didn't want to push it
late at night so we ended up just sleeping here if we need it what I think
he said tow oh ho a backhoe a garden hoe is used to work the very top of the soil
generally to remove small weeds this should just sort us right out
yeah baby those were worth that $200 no nicely done I think the key is if you
ever are stuck in sand is to just go slow always go slow on your gas a lot of
people try and like boom try and pull themselves out and that just sinks you
in more life lessons for maiming will continue in just a minute this is where
he woke up playing norte there are rigs everywhere super excited to meet that
day with that dirt bike but we were gonna leave here and inquire about
possibly kiteboarding something I've wanted to do for a long time see how
much it cost apparently this is the kiteboarding spot Beck's also super
stuck because she's gonna do namaste no freaking state I'll check you at the
hotel
this is definitely where we should have gone to the washroom this morning pack
my bag for after yoga there's a shower down here sleep down home child
oh yeah we're guests at that point hotel swimming pool
that's beautiful okay here's the deal kite boarding is available it's not the
type of thing where you can just jump up and all of a sudden you're kiting it's
an extreme sport
and they encourage an eight-hour lesson so I really want to do it it's the kind
of thing that I've been kind of putting off for so long I used to work at a
board shop in Toronto I used to sell kites I've flown trainer kites I've seen
it while all throughout our travels and it looks like right up my alley
something I love to do so they do have availability at 12:15 Becca left she
went to yoga so I'm gonna sit here and sulk and think about spending and I'm
serving my name an absurd amount of money but experiences over things right
guys right and you know it's not like it's just the money it's also thinking
what's that gonna do for the next two to three days hurt let's say I totally get
a dick to the sport where we gonna fit a pegboard I guess my last thoughts are
what what happens if I get eaten by a shark
thanks again nice to meet you safe to say I've had a pretty great morning I
just had a shower back there let's see how Amon fared with finding someone to
take him out I think I'm gonna try it you can always do one lesson and then
pay for one there's no like commitment to do eight so I'm gonna do one lesson
that starts at 12:15 Beck's still at Yoga but I've got a little project that
I've been trying to sort out for a few days now we're going at Pedro's
so I came to Penrose for some advice on my mounting system i've had this for two
years and it's held up very well but we are starting to crack here and i guess
that has to do with the extra weight i've added from the solar shower and the
fact that I've cut the l-bracket so all the weight is just on that flat metal
bar so we said I'll be about 600 pesos to fix that just to add a weld on it
which is pretty reasonable but then as his buddy started up selling the idea of
putting a rack on the front see you later
let's go talk to the heavy look at this guy not too bad of a morning
woman is whoa how'd you go yeah you found someone right here no way
seriously yeah what no seriously you know are you
talkin what happen course I'm down for you to try it
also before pool day we're gonna go back to Pedro's I think I wanna talk to you
about this rock system I've been cooking up but first smoothie happy merry
birthday to you No hello almost uh yeah
it's money are you gonna get update why do you think oh yeah apparently or not
he's supposed to be on the board yet you're just laying the kite oh my gosh
yeah that's boring I've to do some classroom stuff - no you
don't yeah did you tell these guys when we got
certified for diving huh I had to write your test like you cheated I couldn't
pass it he's so not a book person and when we're
sitting there he was so stressed it was like baby see I had to change it we
cheated our way through it I'm not gonna have you here buddy do you know what
it's not a test here it's just like learning theory about wind and types oh
so you'll be fine at that mm-hmm I believe in you it's bloody hot by the
way it's 28 degrees
my little Nino is off to school wishing him well you ready my mom you excited
yep I'm just super excited for you a new friends hope you make new friends and
hopefully I can see you from here huh Oh fine no kiss goodbye now as I talked
about in the last vlog this is just gonna be my ideal day because there's
nobody here I'm gonna read a book I'm going to swim if I feel like swimming
and I'm not gonna talk so I'll catch you guys in a little also I just wanted to
clarify you might have seen me sunbathing and those b-roll shots I only
do that for like 10 minutes max and then I put my hat and sunglasses and probably
get in the shade so yeah thanks for caring about me if you were wondering
and yeah this is the one and only Patrick he's been an absolute legend he
told me it was too windy originally to fly the kite but I've really flown it
we're now getting in the water then breaking all the rules
yeah record all the rows and so we're gonna get in the water and try and see
what it's like when we're actually in the water he also told me he had a more
Irish name than me was just not true at all Jesus Christ the way to know Patrick
flims pretty good all right let's do it
I think Amon is just about to finish up his lesson so I thought maybe I could be
in the running for best fiance ever if I come back to the van and make a little
snack I'll show you what we've been obsessed with since coming to Mexico
someone is back from his lesson way quicker than I had anticipated
something natural he's a natural he's a natural he said it three times
you definitely need to go again because I didn't get on the board so tomorrow
we're gonna get on the board what we're thinking is we might cut the vlog here
kitchen kitchen kitchen tomorrow at this time and then make one block yeah good
idea yeah but I can't cut it because I just thought I had to show them what
we've been obsessed with they're on tostadas it's just
hummus homemade what is laughing because it's such a simple it's so simple book
like we've been so obsessed avvocato cilantro and a little bit of
hot sauce PS do you guys like cilantro or not because believe it or not ayman
and I both used to hate it and now we both love it I feel like you don't waste
as strong as it used to yeah cos we didn't like it before and it
ruined everything now it's like so good what do you guys think cuz I know it's
like very polarizing also fun fact and they probably can't see me but cilantro
is the most popular herb in the world
good morning friends we just spent our morning getting some work done at a very
quality cafe with very quality Internet
it's full of older and let's say American Gringo's walk around or drive
around sorry on their ATVs so they're just everywhere little gringo village so
that's probably why the cafe was bring gold quality we are heading back to that
beautiful hotel that you saw us at we're going cut where are you going oh you

kite boarding Beck's gonna have a pool day super stoked

doing a chickpea salad sandwich no mayo today but we're doing avocado and
mustard and jalapeno and red peppers just kind of freestyling it we found
these amazing wheat tortillas I actually remember we hung out with
slow car fast home tell me was bloody obsessed with them and they are so good
they come like precooked so you just grill them on the on the heat for a bit
and they just they're so fresh I had a wonderful hour by the pool and now I've
come to take another yoga class from Sara only at a different location so I
had to drive the Beast all by myself this is where I'm going it says it's
closed right no but it looks kind of open it's called the yoga or you can see
every behind me there the yoga garden so I'll check you guys after class I am

that was amazing I put my bikini on so that I can hop in the pool when I get
back to see amen and check in with him and see how he how he went today this is
pretty classic me I need directions for something that's five minutes away the
town is like three blocks so I get lost
even with the map I go the wrong way oh do they miss it this is a joke well the
thing is I turn you off but I get very nervous with these tow phase and
everything so I'm just gonna keep you on isn't it funny how like quickly in place

still don't know where I'm going but I feel really comfortable going back to
this hotel right now I'm probably gonna have another shower

toying with the wind the winds a little quieter and we weren't sure if it was
enough to get out on the board but we've done our safety was it called safe so we
ready to do self rescue and what do you think mate well you're independent now
so I'm pretty confident that we can put this on your feet
Oh
like to put me on the most prettiest conditions now to try kitesurfing
hey bad om ego very good smile my boy was hesitant to take me out cuz the wind
totally changed well died down a little bit ah it makes it very difficult if I
get out there and I dropped the kite they can't get it back up we did go for
one go and I got up for about 15 seconds and then dumped with the kite into the
ocean but overall super stoked definitely get gonna get into this sport

nectarine or peach or whatever that is a little soft it's still good we can wash
that down little Kiwi in a spoon

hotel I guess that's the perks of being a kiteboarder huh guys I was just
sitting here and just had such a grateful moment and I want to share it
because I don't want you guys to feel like you know we're always showing all
