rojo get out of the cooler! mi gusta tu sonrisa Eamon literally wave we last left
you amongst the semana santa crowds in san luis potosí despite the chaos we
really enjoyed hiking one of the world largest monoliths
we refreshed in a nearby watering hole and we were amazed by the mysterious
gardens of Sir Edward James since then we've driven along yet
another windy dirt road to the cave of swallows here we hope to spot the
millions of birds exiting the cave at sunrise but make sure you also stay
tuned to the end of today's video to uncover our absolute favorite spot in
all of Mexico much chicos growling at the locals here so good morning welcome
to Dan life video our day starting at 5:30 sex and basically hey stop it so
the line our fears even though it's before the sun's risen we're gonna stand
in this line here and we got our ticket and this is the entrance and then we're
gonna find a babysitter for ro because they're very smart here in Mexico and
they know that they'll get our business if they babysit our daughters okay
gracias amigo his name is Rojo he's gonna cry
I don't know why but I feel very good about leaving the dog with that dude
they're way better than leaving him in the van I feel like oh for sure so if
you know us and you watch our vlogs you know like we're typically not the
bird-watching type but we were convinced that this is quite impressive by Armando
and now and man that's why alright we've sacrificed a min to the front to try to
get some footage so I thought I'd introduce you to our new friend - Diaz
why don't you tell us your name properly because I'm gonna butcher it yeah ready
okay my name is Mauricio Mauricio Maui Maui Cancun and you're
here on vacation yeah and a road trip with my friend Orlando
oh great segue how are ya good good you have some facts for us we just followed
you guys here so you have to tell us why we're here many facts they know that the
birds that come out are called loneliness and they come out like in a
spiral a tornado so it's supposed to look cool they're supposed to be like
three million Birds so we're not sure we believe you on that step I know we're
about to see Hey you probably weren't expecting to see me here but this is the
point in the video where I would cut to the b-roll I shot on this camera but I
actually just messed up and deleted it all without saving up anyway I wanted to
show you inside the cave as I paid this guy 20 pesos to tie me up and lean over
and you can actually see some of the birds coming out it wasn't as dramatic
and exciting as it sounds but you can just close your eyes and kind of picture
what a bunch of birds leaving a cave looks like we have learned a few things
number one after August you will be able to see the millions go in and out at
once but because of the mating season things are a little different here right
now so until noon today they just kind of
trickle out of the cave correct we saw hundreds so and what we also know is
that there's people coming in now so what we would recommend if you're not
coming for the August launch just commented normal time no need to get up
at 5:30 also when it's not manic season you can actually rappel into the cave
which could be amazing that'd be super cool it's not that big
of a hike but we did stop for orange juice and the puppy parents in us are
very excited to see little heat on
muchas gracias amigo the aftermath of getting up at 5:30 and heading or
straight away to an excursion or activity is that the van ends up looking
a bit like my wardrobe is so messy right now that I basically just pulled
everything out to find these pants and distract you on the bed so it's my man
it's my bag I made a chai this morning so we've got
that and like I said it really only takes two seconds to explode the van oh
yeah I'm gonna put some deodorant on it I just put them on here I noticed though
excuse me he's such a confident dog why are you going done-day okay okay let's
camp the van and then we're gonna hit the road
amigos you guys know how to get there in order to fit it all in sometimes we have
our commuter breakfast of banana and whatever other fruit ties we have got
some pears nothing spectacular this morning but this is this is a real say
in the life
really embarrassed on the one time you guys see it grows wondering what's
happening it's around eleven o'clock we just had to stop to get some ice which
is our new standard because we got our brand new cooler bag that you saw in the
last bug we tuck it in between the seats and we get ice and drinks and we have to
admit we're on a bit of a sugar high right now drinking like non branded
sugar drinks he's the reason I it really helps going down like he's just chomping
away on the Ellen you like yellow baby
might be a pretty dress welcome to Tim all everybody we just ran into Mao and
Armando and it sounds like there's two ways to go here one is towards the boats
it's a three-hour boat ride to just see the waterfall and then you can drive up
and you're on top of the waterfall so we're not sure what we're gonna do
before we make any big decisions in life we like to eat some food last night
Eamon actually cooked for us but we weren't hungry at all I think the heat
got to us so he made an amazing lentil walnut taco me not very convenient but
the were in the middle lunch here amigo is saying
when you don't so we got a are you cooking okay
are you a meal real slow but just okay but just hold the pot and chill okay
it's a lot of buses here I think that's what he was trying to tell me as these
buses are trying to leave or something Rojo get out of the cooler okay you can
stay and we've got tacos for lunch this is the lentil walnut meat I was talking
about so we've toast our walnuts chopped them a little bit but give them a crunch
stow the walnuts aim and spice them up real nice and then just my picot on top
always heat your tortillas fold when povich due to its remote location I
don't know that I don't even know if you guys can see this winding up the path of
cars backed up guys because of its remote location you
could have this place all to yourself a thousand cars here yeah easily
well this beautiful water though I honestly think it's gonna be so pretty
and I don't want to miss it it's one of those things what would you guys do if
you had only one week and it ended up being during Holy Week and it was super
busy brave the crowds or would you just kind of post up somewhere sure but I
mean you don't have a choice you either get to see this this one time or you
never get to see it I think in my honestly we're here because we want to
show you guys it was just us we weren't making a vlog I don't think it's worth
in it yeah it's just too crazy it is too crazy
well where did our friends go not too sure on the exact game plan here we have
found an eye overlander spot it says it's a beautiful spot camp near the
walking entrance to cascadas de tum all you get here down a dirt track from the
village of nun noggin heat dome now gonna need them
paying Tino to let you through his land Tino gusta tu sonrisa and then an
additional 25 pesos per person to go down the path to the waterfall rub from
there is very rough and a little steep but made it with my little Civic
hatchback this is the road with folks
hands on the wheel yeah cannon - panting - we've got the best man like dog he
loves sleeping on like a bumpy road we're getting in the coop
ayman literally waved the two boys we said we'd meet them near the cat's
cottage that was about I don't know at least half an hour ago we have no idea
if they're going to be here but we will be so stoked if we end up at the same
spot you're not on Tina's line boys we love you we thought we lost you forever
yeah yeah yeah well we're here to help make sure you don't spin up a rock yeah
okay dude this is the aftermath tomato soup a broken bed this darn waterfall
better be darn amazing oh and they're sweet got the hiccups any so hot he's
goes to the nose nuzzled in there no a sweet boy
thank God we got a nice for him thank goodness you guys saw that road getting
in here and there's I don't know 150 cars here probably we are between 200
people which is way more than all the bird that with
I'm going see there's only
maybe I'll keep enclosing myself back into their clothes on me
and you know the drivers Robin but then nobody's
getting Russian baby I'm stupid but I was being
I need to know
I need
the best part about having some local friends around is they know how to pay
off the security guards so we get to go in this private oh the waters amazing
yeah
here's how the night is shaping up I'm in charge of a massive pasta salad so
I'm just in the kitchen choppin choppin so we've got our buddies here now
working on some drink mixing and we've got Eamon and rojito in the hammock he
was so tired when we got back and now he's like a ready to go how do you
exactly this is another kind of crucial scene that you're not gonna see but I'm
was really proud of the b-roll that I shot we're basically chilling and I
don't usually drink but I had a beer or two with the boys and I set up this one
shot on top of our Sprinter van because we had the two vans and it was like
facing down time lapse it was uh just just picture it soak it in I'll try and
never do this again so anyway back to the video so we had a bit of a situation
here a little heat oh I think must have eaten something on the road on the
journey and he just puked all along the bed so it was a very exciting ending to
our night but we hope you guys enjoyed the video we've met some amazing new
