in the last episode we left home and drove 12 hours from Toronto Ontario to
Springfield Illinois since then we've clocked over 1,000
miles through Missouri Kansas and Colorado a 17 hour journey that has led
us right here to Pagosa Springs our backs are sore but our spirits are high
good morning everybody I hope you're doing well it's a nice sunny day here in
where are we even Colorado still yeah we're in the mountains and we're just
got getting up or about two and a half hours away from Monument Valley and
Horseshoe Bend and some of the places that we want to spend some time in in
Arizona which is so exciting so we've been driving for days and days and days
at this point we're finally changing our clothes just so that we don't look
completely hobo let me show them the mountains wait you didn't even fully change your
clothes you just put a top on top of your top yeah the mountains it's
beautiful beautiful day we prepared some overnight
oats awesome just some coconut yogurt with oats and we also added some of our
trail mix in there and oh Chaiwala chai sprinkles this stuff is the bomb
its crystallized maple syrup with our chai spice it just gives it a little bit
of natural sweetness and maybe banana
for anyone who's wondering we do not have a mirror no we don't have a mirror
in the van when one of us points out to the other one that there's something
going on like a man's got his first pimples of like I just have poverty
trying to get a little bit more creative with our angles here but we don't really
have like a mount system so we need to that's okay well thank you Darrell no
dark darling darling a few things you guys should know about our laziness on
the road one is we never put our bed up so this is where we eat because
we don't have a couch and number two is we always spare the dishes so we just
eat out of our big Tupperware or whatever we've made it in if it's a soup
if it's a pasta or eating out of the pot of course how good is that okay I think
we're gonna enjoy our breakfast and our team and we'll hit the road I think I've
got the next shift hey you dropped two hours that's the shifts not so I'm gonna
drive the next shift then tomorrow's loved yeah take us all the way to bend
toilet break in the middle of Utah hey how are you surprisingly watching
nothing that at all don't judge a book by its cover
driving in here we are very concerned on the visibility front for photos and
video look at that guys all of a sudden we're just out of the blanket there's
like a blanket or a cloud that we were in and now we are open road beautiful
sunshine let's go
oops shoot down shoot down are you guys ready to check out this amazing
aah-ha-ha-ha we've made it to destination number one it's so important
to enjoy the journey but sometimes arriving at the dusto is pretty sweet
the Sun is out I'm so excited I'm so excited
who is excited I'm very excited very very very excited boom also have a big
headache and I'm just being a little brat yeah you are take a nap nobody
needs you I'm gonna enjoy the Sun I know look at you you're just like hanging out
looking at this freaking amazing landscape oh nice weather to look for
degrees when there's like nice and Sun and everything I think the biggest thing
about life in Toronto is that for the past 4 months we haven't seen the Sun
for more than three days that's over for my personal a babe we need to like
realize that Sun makes us happy mm-hmm and budget that into our lifestyle
forever another a mental health expense I think you guys if you've been around
for a long time or long enough you've seen me do this before but I am
literally the type of person that if we're walking and the whole group is
like kind of walking this way but the Sun is this way I just like keep my head
towards the Sun at all times I really love it
I freaking love she's not kidding nice she's been like that for 15 minutes if
he did I'm not gonna lie I was just sitting here and I'm taking in my Sun
worshiper status and I'm like just breathing and I start crying my eyes out
and I think it's just because I'm so grateful for the life I'm living I feel
so grateful to be in this spot right now
you know I just feel overwhelmed by excitement for what's to come so I hope
you'll stick around for the journey well I almost feel like I could be in a
bikini not gonna lie four degrees baby look huzzah
look who's got a burrito while a man was sneezing
I made some chickpea salad wraps yeah I feel like we eat chickpea salad
sandwiches of sorts well that's blinding your plate is blinding Oh
every day of this road trip yeah we're gonna change the wording from lunch to
check this out also I can't even get over this I'm shooting you but I'm
obsessed with the background behind you Wow when we were back in BC I lost
or I left one of our lawn chairs at a campsite we were out so now we just have
one so I guess it's a man's turn to sit and bask in the Sun this is having lunch
you put on his SPF what chap buddy you having fun and my job is gonna be to
take this house that is just like a disaster and just tie it up for no one
no one's safe but my own check in with you when it's done this is
the first time we put out the bed in five days so five days probably longer
even in Toronto we would just leave it out that alone makes such a difference
in a small space yeah often say like would you have a fixed bed and with this
size band my answer is absolutely no yeah so claustrophobic also I feel like
yeah I'll show you our inventory for this trip we learned was Arizona
Monument Valley is great for sunset but Utah Monument Valley from Forrest Gump
Point and those kind of areas is supposed to be really good for sunrises
and we thought we'll never be here again so we're gonna sleep over at that BLM
lint and we're gonna hit it for sunrise and try to take some fun photos so we
are to head it back to Utah hey I love it when my body's looking
cute making the okie sue you know you guys are used to seeing aimin in the
kitchen and one of the reasons that always is is he really is a freestyle
chef so for me I actually have our eBook oh this is actually my recipe and I'm
still looking at the directions just to make sure that I've got enough of
everything Heyman's actually editing this vlog
right now he's doing the morning footage so we're ahead and that's kind of what a
night with a man beck looks like a little bit of work lots of food you know
Joe just like that ready to serve nope I'm
talking to the vlog you ready for some soup though I offer you some fresh
ground pepper oh just say one good more please
that kid it's always awkward going out to restaurants with you would someone
ask if they can freshly ground some pepper because you actually let them
grind it for like so long okay Bon Appetit my love so much as
classy as me god it's gonna be a way a way to be Dante
yeah hello hello that'll bring us to 9 p.m. mountain time we are actually gonna
crash and get up early tomorrow so we'll see you then good night sleep tight
don't let the bedbugs bite I promise I'll change my shirt tomorrow
good morning everybody Eamonn and I had the most peaceful sleep out here in the
desert and we're up with the Sun this morning to get a few more photos and
just really take it all in and enjoy it because this is the famous road highway
that everybody gets their photos on pretty sick really quiet so I feel like
it's pretty safe to do that now I mean it's kind of silly to lie in the middle
of the road and get a photo but it looks just so good this is awesome
so yeah we're gonna take some snaps I'm gonna leave you right here so you can
watch it I'll go down a great success in Monument Valley oh I think we're a
little there we go you're gonna have a chai latte well
those B were taught shots we're looking good what happened to everybody well
Tommy over spell I think she's bad she'd ruin her latte she was pissed and
rightfully so I watched the pot boil over sorry back
we're gonna sit here and Sun worship enjoy our tea and what's up with the Sun
worshiping and I hope you guys just enjoy something really small like the
