  • I think we're in full beach mode.

  • I'm so excited, I love it.

  • I'm going to get some coffee right now.

  • (I have no idea what she is saying here)

  • Right outside of our place.

  • There's a bakery and a cafeteria.

  • I'm getting some coffee.

  • Okay, our AirBNB host actually has a beach club.

  • So they've taken us down here.

  • It's called shipwrecked,

  • and it's just about under 2km out of town.

  • You can get a taxi or golf cart to it.

  • And we're going to check this place out.

  • Nice to meet you. Fernando.

  • Nice to meet you, Fernando.

  • And he's one of our fishermen.

  • Oh yeah?

  • How are you liking beach life?

  • I love it.

  • It's so pretty, did you see this dock right here?

  • Yeah.

  • It's gorgeous.

  • I don't know who wouldn't want

  • to come out here and hang out!

  • Yes, that's right.

  • It is a gas powered blender.

  • It's a weed wacker engine, right? That's awesome.

  • Hey, gracias!

  • Ashley's intrigued to see more lobster.

  • I love these lobsters,

  • They don't have the pinchers.

  • They're Caribbean lobsters.

  • I had no clue that Caribbean lobsters didn't have pinchers.

  • They're way less intimidating.

  • Oh that's a big one.

  • So what grows in this?

  • Nothing?

  • No that's a conch.

  • But does like a crab grow...?

  • No, it's a conch.

  • That is an animal.

  • It's an animal?

  • Yeah!

  • This right here.

  • OHHH! There we go. Okay.

  • And people eat this?

  • Yeah.

  • Think of it as an oyster.

  • I've never had it.

  • It's like an oyster, in a sense.

  • The eyes, ojos.

  • Ojos.

  • And you just pull it out?

  • Uh huh,

  • There's probably a little hole up here.

  • Right there.

  • They punch a little hole in it,

  • it's a certain spot.

  • And they know where it is.

  • And that's where the muscle is

  • that's holding him inside the shell.

  • So it unsuctions it..

  • They poke a hole, and then they... yeah.

  • And then you can just pull it out. Wow.

  • So cool!

  • Yeah, that's a big one.

  • A grande man.

  • Yeah, it is.

  • Hello.

  • Music video.

  • Music video?

  • Yeah.

  • Chips and salsa, and guacamole.

  • Muchas gracias.

  • Thank you.

  • Uh oh. Ashley found a friend.

  • Ashley, on a scale from 1 to 10,

  • How has your stay at shipwrecked been so far?

  • Amazing! Number 10.

  • Number 10.

  • Yeah!

  • Number 10!

  • We've been having a great conversation.

  • It's beautiful. I love the wind,

  • because it is actually really hot here, today.

  • Yes.

  • But this wind makes it incredible.

  • In the shade, in the wind, it's the perfect temperature.

  • It's perfect.

  • This is yours.

  • That is beautiful.

  • Lobster i saw out there, huh?

  • I picked him!

  • Woooooooooooooow.

  • I don't mind.

  • This is conch.

  • Conch.

  • Done in garlic butter.

  • This is the conch?

  • Yes.

  • Oh, wow.

  • I've never had that before.

  • Well you said you're willing to try anything.

  • Yeah I am!

  • I'm willing to try it, I'm super excited.

  • Dig in!

  • Alright Ashley, earlier you were saying you were suprised.

  • You were like, "hold on,

  • what is that conch thing?"

  • I've never heard of a conch.

  • Like I've never seen the animal actually inside the shell.

  • I've only like seen the shells, right?

  • So I'm super curious to try it.

  • It's supposed to be in salt, with garlic and pepper.

  • It's going to be delicious.

  • Okay, ready?

  • First time ever trying conch shell.

  • On the Caribbean Sea,

  • In Mexico.

  • The garlic is so good.

  • It's a little chewy.

  • But really delicious,

  • and not super seafoody.

  • Which i think a lot of people have a hard time with seafood.

  • I think you would love this.

  • Yeah?

  • Alright.

  • Dig in girl!

  • Ashley's found a local kid to play with.

  • There she goes.

  • This is the normal Ashley.

  • Just playing with the locals

  • She's like, Ahh, screw video, I'm just going to go play

  • all by myself.

  • I like it.

  • I love her.

  • She's so genuine, and honest, and fun.

  • Look at her!

  • Adios!

  • I made a friend.

  • Yeah, I saw that.

  • I played soccer, and I jumped seaweed.

  • Wow.

  • Really exciting times here, not on the island,

  • But in Mahahual.

  • Mahahual.

  • Honestly, we've been relaxing here for like 4 hours.

  • Yeah, it's amazing.

  • The most likely occurance

  • that anyone would ever come to Mahahual

  • is from a cruise.

  • Right.

  • So I'm saying like, if you're on a cruise,

  • and you're coming to Mahahual,

  • come to shipwrecked and just hang out the entire time.

  • You'll spend less money than you would

  • if you went on an excursion.

  • Yeah.

  • And you have just a relaxed, fun time on the beach.

  • Actually he was saying

  • that the barrier reef, that's just right out here,

  • is the second largest barrier reef in the world.

  • Right after the great barrier reef in Australia.

  • And supposedly this is even better,

  • because you can just swim to it.

  • As opposed to taking a boat 3 or 4 miles out to see it.

  • I'm really hoping tomorrow

  • we'll actually have a chance to swim out there

  • with my dad. It would be amazing.

  • That would be really fun.

  • I would love it.

  • I am in full beach mode.

  • And I am relaxed.

  • Guys, I hope you enjoy it as much as we are,

  • but I'm pretty sure you won't.

  • To be honest,

  • This is the first time in months,

  • if not a year,

  • where we've been just, like, chill.

  • Just relaxed.

  • Yeah, I'm absolutely loving it.

  • I love that our AirBNB hosts are so amazing.

  • And that we have all these opportunities

  • to meet so many cool people.

  • We met a teacher from one of the cruise ships

  • who really would like to skype with us.

  • With his students.

  • He teaches communications and video production.

  • Yeah, so, and just from sitting here

  • we have an awesome opportunity to encourage

  • young people to follow their dreams,

  • and do really cool stuff.

  • So cool.

  • I'm really excited about that! It's so amazing.

  • I would not have planned this day any different.

  • I lost Ashley for a second.

  • Turns out she's in the back of some random person's truck.

  • Hi.

  • Hello.

  • Walking's for losers.

  • We're going to check out this dive center,

  • because we want to get our divers licenses so bad.

  • It's my goal this year to get my diving license.

  • I would love to.

  • So maybe we can hook up with these guys,

  • and give them some promotion for our videos,

  • and get our diving licenses.

  • get a better price, cause we pop.

  • How was the trip?

  • Oh wonderful!

  • Oh my goodness.

  • Have you guys gone out to the reef?

  • It's so amazing how it's just beach here, and mangroves there.

  • It's, like, taken over.

  • So in the back here you can see all of the mangroves.

  • Yeah, it's insane.

  • For miles and miles.

  • Is it really marshy, wet lands back there?

  • Yeah, yeah.

  • And have you ever seen an alligator or crocodile?

  • They're called caimans here.

  • But yeah, you definitely can see some.

  • But they don't come up here?

  • Not right here.

  • I don't know if you guys can see this,

  • but there is a rainbow out there,

  • because the whether has turned just enough

  • where it started to rain out over the ocean,

  • but it is perfectly beautiful right here.

  • Thank you so much for your help, that was awesome.

  • Okay, so it is past midnight.

  • How you doing, Ash?

  • Yeah, I'm reading a book.

  • Getting ready for bed.

  • We went to the dive center,

  • and then we started talking to people,

  • and then we were like, Oh shoot, it's late.

  • We gotta get back and edit, so we edited.

  • And I just finished editing tomorrows video.

  • And then it was midnight!

  • Oh we haven't recorded the outtro.

  • We haven't said goodbye to everyone, so...

  • It was one of those days, where we had such a fun time

  • just hanging out.

  • It was such a good day.

  • That we probably sucked at filming it.

  • Like that's what i feel like, at least.

  • Our AirBNB hosts Kevin and Kim

  • have made this stay, like,

  • so much better than it would have been.

  • Yeah, way better.

  • They've been awesome, and so we have linked

  • their AirBNB that we're staying in down below.

  • So that if anybody is interested in coming here,

  • definitely stay at this place.

  • It is literally, LITERALLY, on the beach.

  • And as you saw in the beginning of this video,

  • you can walk up on the roof,

  • and there's chairs there, you can just hang out.

  • I wish that we were staying longer.

  • Yeah, why did you book us so fast?

  • Oh that's right, because we're trying to keep the schedule with the cruise ship.

  • Yeah, and it was much cheaper for us to come on monday.

  • because I had five days here, but we had to shorten it.

  • Alright, so Wayfam,

  • I hope we encouraged you to get out there and travel today.

  • Come to Mahahual, stay here at the Shipwrecked apartments.

  • Meet up with Kim and Kevin.

  • And then go to their Shipwrecked Club.

  • Beach club.

  • It was such a fun day!

  • It was a great day.

  • We'll see you in the next video.

  • Adios.

  • Did you encourage them?

  • Yeah, I said that, didn't I?

  • If I forgot,

  • I hope I encouraged you to get out there and travel today.

  • I hope we did.

  • Yeah.

  • Okay byeeee. Adios!

Wow! Look how beautiful it is.
