00:03

good morning from Oman the little

00:05

country on the corner of the Arabian

00:07

Peninsula this 1985 Unimog with an

00:10

incredible camper conversion is going to

00:12

be our home for the next week as we

00:14

explore this country's epic nature Best

00:17

Day Ever this is day two from beautiful

00:19

Coast lines to massive deserts rugged

00:21

mountains and even hidden Oasis this is

00:24

amazing this country has it all but the

00:26

best part is wild camping is legal

00:28

throughout the entire country another

00:30

epic spot we'll hit the road soon but

00:32

first let me catch you up on how we got

00:34

here and give you a full tour of our new

00:36

[Music]

00:41

home this is awesome hey little girl so

00:47

this morning when we woke up we could

00:48

see this herd of goats on top of the

00:50

mountain across the valley and they've

00:52

spent the morning making their way all

00:54

the way over to where we camped last

00:55

night all right car's attempting to make

00:57

friends what could possibly go wrong

01:01

swe thought you new guy shepher Cara is

01:04

watching over her flock she is loving

01:07

this also that's my phone that she has

01:09

in her hand which means I now have

01:10

10,000 photos of goats on my phone to go

01:14

[Music]

01:15

through all right so two days ago we

01:18

picked up the Unimog from a company

01:20

called Freedom Overland in Dubai they're

01:22

the ones that get credit for the

01:23

incredible build and we are super

01:24

grateful for them letting us use it for

01:26

this trip I'll be honest when we

01:27

originally planned this trip I did not

01:29

realize how big big the learning curve

01:30

was going to be for driving a unimod so

01:33

the day started with a driving lesson

01:34

which if I'm being honest was pretty

01:36

intense especially on the busy streets

01:38

around Dubai it's hard to

01:40

find

01:43

play there we go this thing has eight

01:46

gears and it drives unlike any vehicle

01:48

that I've ever driven before then it was

01:50

time to make the 2-hour drive to the

01:51

Omani border which just happened to

01:53

coinside with rush hour traffic in Dubai

01:56

this is such an intense place to drive

01:58

something this big for the first time

02:00

thankfully we breeed through the Border

02:02

like almost a little too easy that's it

02:04

we'll see when I drive away if they come

02:06

to uh search the car our goal for the

02:09

night was to make it all the way to the

02:10

capital city of Muscat but we quickly

02:12

learned that the time that we saw in

02:14

Google Maps needed to be doubled because

02:17

the top speed of the Unimog is 49 mph

02:20

and going uphill it is incredibly slow

02:22

we going to make it up this hill I don't

02:24

know we're losing speed so fast from

02:27

there all that was left to do was drive

02:28

to the top of this mountain where we are

02:30

currently parked but this isn't where we

02:31

intended on camping our first spot was

02:33

quite a bit lower than this it was a

02:35

Lookout Point and we literally were

02:37

parked right next to a Toyota Corolla

02:39

but then I saw this little dirt road

02:41

going up a mountain that looked pretty

02:43

intense but I decided what's the point

02:45

of driving a Unimog all the way to Oman

02:47

if you're not going to try to get to the

02:48

most epic camping spots oh gosh this is

02:52

actually

02:53

nuts so yeah thankfully we' survived

02:56

last night we have an epic place to Camp

02:58

I breathed a deep I relief when we

03:00

finally made it up here last night but I

03:02

don't feel like I've been able to fully

03:04

exhale because we still have to make it

03:06

down this morning but first we'll give

03:07

you a

03:08

tour our friends are still here by the

03:12

way we have lived in a lot of vehicles

03:14

over the last few years we spent 2 years

03:16

living in this van during Co and we've

03:18

tested out a lot of other setups but

03:20

this has to be the coolest looking

03:22

vehicle that we have ever lived in plus

03:24

there is one super unique feature that

03:27

takes this thing to the next level that

03:28

we will show you at the very end I'm

03:30

going to show you around the outside and

03:31

then Carol will show you around the

03:32

inside this thing is from 1985 we're

03:35

pretty much driving an antique Overland

03:38

vehicle around Oman these lights also

03:40

feel like they are from 1985 you can't

03:42

see anything driving at night which is

03:43

pretty dangerous considering how many

03:45

camels there are wandering around Oman

03:47

but I'm excited to get into the desert

03:48

and test out these light bars they're

03:50

illegal to use on the road here boom

03:53

boom

03:54

wow right coming on the side check out

03:57

how tall these tires are so we got Mass

03:59

military grade tires on this thing that

04:01

we put to the test yesterday afternoon

04:03

we're pulling a house up the world stev

04:06

road so this might sound kind of dumb

04:08

but when I was looking at this online I

04:10

actually thought it was smaller than our

04:12

van something about the way it's shaped

04:14

and the way the photos were taken it

04:15

just looked like this this little cute

04:17

vehicle but this thing is a monster it

04:19

is literally three times bigger than it

04:21

looks in the photos so it turns out the

04:23

Unimog is 3 ft taller than our van but

04:27

it's 2 ft shorter so that's why it has

04:29

this really funny but super cool looking

04:31

shape so this is the original Unimog

04:33

like this is the 1985 vehicle and

04:36

everything you see on the back half here

04:38

was custom built from aluminum by

04:40

Freedom Overland and it's all powder

04:42

coated in this super cool silver color

04:44

with red accents this is our 90 L diesel

04:47

tank and then these are our Max tracks

04:49

that we can use in case we get stuck in

04:50

the

04:52

desert that was terrifying but what I

04:55

really like is this holder also

04:57

doubles as an outdoor table so as you

05:00

can see where you enter the camper is

05:02

quite High compared to the ground so

05:03

we've got these extendable stairs which

05:06

are a little bit of a pain but once you

05:07

finally get them set up they're a lot

05:08

sturdier than they look plus the stairs

05:10

make it feel super homey so the back has

05:12

a super unique design the entire top

05:15

half opens up and then down below you

05:16

have a spare tire and these back boxes

05:18

for extra storage there's a generator in

05:20

the bottom in case we need more power

05:21

and then we're not even using this

05:23

because there's so much storage space in

05:25

this thing coming around to the side

05:26

more storage down here on the bottom

05:28

right now we're keeping our our air

05:30

compressor hose in here another Super

05:31

unique feature that I like about the way

05:33

they've designed this Unimog is they've

05:35

actually done a conversion on the air

05:36

compressor that's used for the brakes

05:38

and you can attach that hose to the air

05:40

compressor underneath to air back up

05:42

your tires if you need to so that's a

05:43

pretty cool design once again I don't

05:45

think this is going to work but I just

05:47

got to

05:49

drive inside this little storage

05:51

compartment we have our lithum batteries

05:54

we have 340 amps of batteries which

05:56

feels a little small for this vehicle

05:58

but it also has an alternator char

05:59

charger which means that it charges as

06:01

you drive and I think we'll be driving

06:02

every single day so power is definitely

06:04

not going to be an issue for us on this

06:06

trip and back here we have all the rest

06:08

of the electrical setup this electrical

06:10

setup is so pleasing to the eye compared

06:13

to the mess of a cabinet that we have in

06:14

our van this thing is amazing lots of

06:16

cool design choices and a few

06:17

questionable ones one of the

06:19

questionable design choices being that

06:20

in order to turn on the inverter you

06:22

actually have to come outside and hit

06:23

that button there should definitely be a

06:24

way to do that from inside here we have

06:26

our gray water tank and our black water

06:28

tank both of which are 100 L which are

06:30

huge we may not have to dump these

06:32

throughout the entire trip but if we do

06:34

there are buttons underneath the

06:35

steering wheel that make it super easy

06:36

it's always a good thing you don't have

06:37

to carry your pea bucket through your

06:39

home oh I need your help okay put the

06:40

camera down I need your help all right

06:43

now let me show you around the cab which

06:45

is honestly I think super cool because

06:47

of how old it is so these seats remind

06:50

me of the old seats that are in my

06:51

grandfather's VW which I really like and

06:53

then all of these old physical buttons

06:55

there's something so satisfying about

06:57

getting like a real click when you're

06:59

turning on and off the headlights this

07:01

giant steering wheel makes me feel like

07:02

I'm driving a bus and there are eight

07:05

gears in this thing which makes it a

07:07

little challenging to drive especially

07:08

because when you're downshifting this

07:10

won't mean anything to you if you

07:11

haven't driven a stick shift but like

07:13

let's say you want to go from 5ifth to

07:14

third or from like 7th to third so like

07:17

you were going fast and then you're

07:18

coming to a stop you have to go into

07:20

fifth and then go over into third it's a

07:22

pretty complicated setup it took a lot

07:24

of getting used to but after 9 hours of

07:26

driving from Dubai I think I finally

07:27

have the hang of it there we go this is

07:29

how you switch from Two Wheel to

07:31

four-wheel drive we do have AC in this

07:33

thing which is really nice but

07:34

apparently they couldn't get the old AC

07:36

working so like none of this here

07:37

actually functions it all comes out at

07:40

car's legs which is great for me I guess

07:42

because I'm so close to the engine here

07:44

like the front of this thing is really

07:45

short there is a lot of heat that builds

07:47

up under here and I have to have Cara

07:48

put her legs up on the dash so that the

07:50

air can actually flow over in my

07:52

direction this is a backup camera which

07:54

is essential because of how big this

07:55

thing is so down here there are a few

07:56

more things that increase the learning

07:58

curve this is parking brake this is Ford

08:00

in Reverse I've never had Ford and

08:02

reverse on a giant lever like this

08:04

normally when you're driving a stick

08:05

shift there's just like a gear that you

08:07

put it in here on the handle so in my

08:09

jeep that I drove growing up I always

08:11

had to go all the way to the right and

08:13

then up and that was reversed so I've

08:15

tried to do that a few times muscle

08:16

memory is such a fascinating thing Nate

08:18

has not driven that jeep in over 10

08:20

years and his brain still wants to put

08:22

it in the same reverse spot as his Jeep

08:25

and over here we have the glove box

08:27

which I really like because it has this

08:28

little nod to the Past on it the Unimog

08:31

actually started out as a military

08:33

ambulance so it's cool to think about

08:35

the life cycle of where it started and

08:37

where it's ended up next to a herd of

08:38

goats on top of a mountain in Oman all

08:41

right let me take you up

08:43

top

08:45

whoa I'm serious I have almost fallen

08:49

out of this thing so many times because

08:51

I go to step and I just don't realize

08:52

how far down it

08:56

is not really a good way to get get all

08:59

the way on top a little terrifying

09:01

especially with this wind okay for how

09:02

much space we have up here there's

09:04

really not a whole lot going on we've

09:05

got a vent for the bathroom one 2 3 400

09:08

WS of solar and that is an air

09:10

conditioner okay and now I'm getting

09:12

down because I feel like I'm going to

09:13

get blown away good morning from the

09:15

future me and my goat friend would just

09:17

like to thank our sponsor for today's

09:21

adore well you think you want to try it

09:23

09:26

whoops this is just a slight preview of

09:29

what to come trust me you're going to

09:31

want to keep watching because somehow

09:33

Aman just keeps getting better and

09:34

better let's just say road trips don't

09:36

bring out the best version of myself

09:38

when it comes to nutrition we like to

09:40

call ag1 our nutritional Insurance

09:42

because it fills in the gaps in our diet

09:44

when we're doing stuff like this just in

09:46

09:51

Whole Food sourced ingredients that

09:53

09:56

digestion and gut health to energy level

09:59

I so thankful we discovered it when we

10:01

did gosh four years ago now and we've

10:04

been drinking it ever since all you do

10:06

is mix one serving with a little bit of

10:08

cold water preferably and that's it well

10:11

hi do you want to try ag1 this might be

10:13

the cutest ag1 ad ever what do you

10:16

think H I think these goats eat grass

10:20

which contrary to the green color this

10:23

doesn't taste like grass it actually has

10:25

a sweet fruity flavor to it like I said

10:27

10:40

10:48

you'll get five of these travel packs

10:51

for free I'm so excited to show you

10:53

around the inside this is one of my

10:55

favorite builds we've ever lived in

10:57

there's so many things I love about it

10:59

there are a couple things that I would

11:00

probably do differently it's very

11:02

apparent to me that this was designed by

11:04

men but I'll get to that later let me

11:06

start with the biggest most beautiful

11:08

feature and that is this door one of the

11:11

reasons we're so excited to Overland

11:13

Oman is just the campsites themselves we

11:15

know we're going to have some really

11:16

cool spots and we're just going to be

11:18

able to back into an epic spot and then

11:20

simply open this

11:22

door and boom like Nate said the Unimog

11:26

is 2T shorter than our van but it

11:28

seriously feels we have double the space

11:31

and a huge reason for that is because

11:33

the bed is above the cab which just

11:35

opens up this entire room but the best

11:38

part is that's not the only bed if you

11:41

had more people this bench turns into a

11:43

second bed and it is so simple literally

11:46

just turn these knobs and boom it's huge

11:51

you could easily fit four people in here

11:53

maybe even five if you have a small

11:55

person small child lays here two adults

11:57

lay here I mean this just blow blows my

11:59

mind but the fact that it's so easy just

12:02

makes it a million times better the bed

12:03

and our man takes forever to set up and

12:07

take down and so we just never do it

12:08

it's just a bed all the time which takes

12:10

up more than half of our space ow so

12:14

easy I'm still learning obviously now if

12:17

you've seen any of my tours in the past

12:19

then you know that I love storage and

12:22

this is like the storage of my dreams it

12:26

is everywhere we unpacked everything

12:28

from our huge suitcases into this place

12:31

and we bought the entire grocery store

12:33

and we still have leftover storage Nate

12:35

has all of his clothes up here and I

12:37

have all of my clothes up here I can fit

12:40

more if I wanted to plus there's some

12:41

hidden storage beneath this bench nobody

12:44

would ever know it was there so we have

12:45

some important things down there like

12:47

our passports backpacks and then there's

12:48

also so much space under this bench now

12:52

let's talk about the kitchen this is

12:53

another one of my favorite spots of any

12:55

van build and they did an awesome job

12:58

but like I said

12:59

definitely designed by dudes because

13:01

they didn't

13:02

prioritize um the cooking we have

13:06

this um what do you call this we have

13:09

this little camp stove it's portable the

13:11

whole thing folds up and goes into this

13:13

drawer which is actually really nice and

13:15

in the short time that we've lived in

13:17

here I've actually come to enjoy this

13:19

quite a bit I like that you can put it

13:20

away and have all the counter space back

13:22

if you're not using it and if you wanted

13:24

to cook outside on that little extra

13:26

table you could do that so I'm coming

13:28

around to it by guys thanks for hanging

13:30

out honestly that's one of the

13:31

highlights of the trip for me already I

13:34

don't know how it gets any better than

13:35

this we're parked on top of a mountain

13:36

all alone overlooking the ocean with

13:39

mountain goats I think they might just

13:40

be regular goats oh we have all the food

13:43

we bought up here in these cabinets we

13:46

have all of our drink related things in

13:48

this drawer plus our produce a few glass

13:52

things that I didn't want to like fly

13:53

out from up there just in

13:57

case this drawer is what we have over

13:59

plates and bowls and utensils I don't

14:02

even remember what this oh there's

14:05

literally nothing in this drawer except

14:07

for an apple and a pair and that should

14:09

technically go in this drawer this is

14:11

crazy here we have a dtic fridge which

14:14

literally just ate all the groceries

14:15

that I put in it yesterday there's a

14:17

teeny tiny freezer here we have a decent

14:20

Siz sink and beneath the sink do I even

14:22

need to say it look at all this storage

14:24

we have our trash down here some

14:26

cleaning stuff towels and a 10g water

14:29

heater also I love how all these drawers

14:30

have a lat so they don't fly open when

14:32

we're driving oh no what drawer flew

14:35

open now across from the kitchen we have

14:36

a microwave which is pretty cool but

14:39

honestly I'm a little scarred from

14:41

living in hour van and running out of

14:42

power a few too many times I'm sure we

14:44

could use this for a minute or two and

14:46

be totally fine but I'm going to try not

14:48

to use it because we're going to be in

14:50

some pretty remote places and I do not

14:52

want to use all of our power so just in

14:54

case we need some more storage I'll just

14:56

put stuff in there speaking of things

14:57

that suck up power

14:59

we have an air conditioner which we do

15:02

not have in our van but once again I

15:04

don't think we're going to be using it

15:05

just because it doesn't really seem

15:08

worth it plus after sleeping on the

15:10

beach and sleeping on top of this

15:11

mountain with this ocean breeze we have

15:12

not even needed it it feels amazing on

15:16

this wall we have our control panel and

15:17

I love how simple and accessible it is

15:21

up here we have our freshwater tank

15:23

levels so we have 200 L of fresh water

15:26

and we can see exactly how much we have

15:28

left in our van our water tank is hidden

15:30

beneath the bench and we don't have this

15:32

so we're just guessing how much water we

15:34

have left like we never actually know

15:36

which could be a little stressful

15:37

beneath that we have the gray water and

15:39

blackw tanks which once again in our van

15:42

we don't know if our gray water is full

15:43

until it starts literally leaking onto

15:45

the road so this is just so nice to have

15:48

now this screen is all things power

15:51

battery solar stuff we have 340 amp hour

15:55

so right now we have 294 left which

15:57

means we have 87 % of our power left

16:00

we're bringing in a positive 5 amps I

16:02

don't know why the screen's flashing

16:03

that just happened recently hopefully

16:05

that's not a bad thing yeah moving on

16:08

into ow the bathroom yes we have an

16:12

entire bathroom it is shockingly Big you

16:16

just push

16:17

it not so sure about this door I'm sure

16:20

it was great when it was new

16:27

but follow me I feel like there are

16:30

houses with bathrooms this big there's

16:32

like a normal shower head a nice big

16:34

sink this toilet is like a marine toilet

16:37

you use it like a normal toilet it's

16:38

great doesn't sink most importantly I

16:41

also love the floor in here it just

16:43

feels nice it really does oh also

16:46

there's a fan that bends which is always

16:49

a good thing in bathrooms in small

16:51

spaces going back to the dude designed

16:55

theme there are two things in here that

16:57

are missing two two very important

16:59

things in my opinion there's no mirror

17:01

even in the bathroom this could be a

17:03

full length mirror easy this could be a

17:05

mirror this could be a mirror we got it

17:08

we got it can't check my fit fit check

17:11

I'm just saying the second thing I would

17:13

think is a little more important to

17:14

every gender and that is a table we

17:17

technically have a table it's just in

17:19

here and it's made to go outside yeah so

17:21

we have outdoor table and chairs which

17:23

I'm sure we will put to use I've

17:25

actually found myself sitting here like

17:27

in the mornings with my coffee my little

17:29

breakfast this kind of acts as a table

17:31

but for one person but yeah Nate doesn't

17:33

really have anywhere to go I know not a

17:35

big deal for this week long trip but

17:36

just thought I would point it out now

17:39

last but not least the bed it's pretty

17:42

tall so they've provided some stairs

17:43

that surprise each step can open up I

17:47

have all of my toiletries in this top

17:49

one this drawer we've put all of our

17:51

electronics and when it's time to go to

17:53

bed we've just been using them to get up

17:55

here like this I'd say this is about the

17:56

width of a double bed pretty good m

17:58

mattress not very tall as you can see if

18:01

you're claustrophobic this might be a

18:02

problem especially if you're on my side

18:04

it gets even lower however the length is

18:07

great like I have at least 2 fet down at

18:09

the end so if you're tall this is not a

18:11

problem at all unless you mess it up my

18:14

favorite part though is this window

18:16

right here that opens I've woken up 2

18:19

days in a row to the Ocean Breeze in my

18:22

face conveniently right next to the bed

18:24

which I always appreciate we have two

18:26

USBS to charge our phone and these run

18:29

off of the 12vt battery which means the

18:31

inverter doesn't even have to be on for

18:33

these to work but all the other plugs

18:35

this one this one and this one those all

18:38

run off the inverter that pretty much

18:40

does it for the inside now let us show

18:42

you what is without a doubt our favorite

18:45

part of this whole Camp let's see if I

18:47

remember how to do this are you ready

18:49

for this

18:55

yes we have a balcony this adds like

18:59

5T at least this changes

19:03

everything all right before we drive

19:05

down the mountain Cara is going to make

19:06

us our last supper Nate I mean lunch you

19:10

cannot say that is it going to be that

19:12

bad I don't know I genuinely don't know

19:14

we don't do stuff like this think we are

19:16

not professional off-roaders I trusted

19:18

the Unimog and kind of got myself in a

19:20

little too deep to turn around last

19:21

night for some reason going back down

19:23

feels more intimidating than climbing

19:27

up

19:29

tahini yesterday we stocked up on all of

19:32

these beautiful locally grown fruits and

19:36

veggies I've made us little um kind of

19:38

like tacos I don't know what else to

19:39

call it flatbreads maybe and then salads

19:42

pretty much all the same things but in a

19:46

ball GL you're enjoying that last meal

19:49

stop all right you ready for this

19:52

no put these on so you can't see the

19:54

fear in my eyes let's do this bye goat

19:57

bye goat

19:59

wow what an adventure this is a pretty

20:01

intense start just getting up over these

20:02

rocks I'm not even hitting the brake the

20:05

gear the gear is just holding us I'd be

20:08

burning up The Brak if I was using the

20:09

brake all right it's about to get

20:11

exciting at least I'm distracted with

20:13

these beautiful views this looks like a

20:15

roller coaster it just disappears oh my

20:18

gosh this is terrifying oh this might be

20:20

the most intense part of the whole thing

20:22

holy crap all right we got this we got

20:24

this woo oh my gosh there's no way you

20:29

can appreciate how like this we are

20:31

right now mhm wo that's just as exciting

20:33

as I thought it was going to

20:36

be take your your seat belt off you know

20:38

where the door handle is yeah I don't

20:40

like it when you say that we're just

20:42

crawling down gosh nothing does this

20:46

Justice you have no idea how sketchy and

20:50

scary this is we go down go

20:56

down wow we're so IAL right now oh my

21:00

gosh all right we're so close literally

21:03

we're so

21:05

close Jesus Take the

21:10

Wheel we made it it was all worth it my

21:13

heart is

21:15

pumping that's gross are you having to

21:18

pick that up yes that's all used toilet

21:21

paper I don't be touching things

21:25

Rose what watch out you

21:27

see there's a dumpster right at the

21:29

bottom of this mountain making it the

21:31

world's best campsite thank you all

21:34

right let's find some gas let's

21:45

go more goats I hope people watching

21:48

this video like itats

21:59

that's a awesome truck oh thank you so

22:02

one interesting thing about Oman and I'm

22:03

assuming this is because it's an oil

22:05

rich country is that the gas prices are

22:07

actually fixed so the sign by the road

22:09

where you would normally see the price

22:10

it's just a logo and right now the price

22:12

is fixed at25 Omani Ral so we put in

22:16

almost 66 L and it costs 17 Omani Ral to

22:19

basically fill this thing from a quarter

22:21

of a tank to

22:26

full okay now we are heading to our our

22:28

new campsite for the night Google map

22:31

says it should take 2 hours which means

22:33

it'll probably take 4 but that's okay

22:36

get out of the road little guy check out

22:39

this

22:42

[Music]

22:43

Oasis we're driving through our first

22:46

Like official mountain town and it's

22:48

just amazing we're surrounded by these

22:51

gigantic mountains and all the homes are

22:54

so ornate and beautiful there's also

22:56

something about the white houses

22:58

contrasted against the dark mountains

23:00

we're just going to be getting more and

23:01

more remote from here on out so we just

23:03

stopped to get some cash at the ATM and

23:05

run a few more errands and I'm so sad

23:09

that we're here during Ramadan because I

23:11

love stopping to get a coffee on road

23:13

trips and there are three coffee shops

23:17

in this one strip they're all closed cuz

23:20

they're all fasting I don't know I might

23:21

not be getting any uh local coffee in

23:23

Oman how cool is this

23:26

town these houses are

23:29

H what is this

23:32

place

23:33

wow so cool also believe it or not we've

23:37

actually been to Oman before it's been

23:39

several years but we came here for 5

23:42

days back in

23:45

2018 okay yep and we just rented this

23:48

little car and drove as much as we could

23:50

because that's all we could afford at

23:52

the time it has been our Dream to do

23:55

this trip for 6 years since the first

23:57

time we came to aan because we couldn't

23:58

afford a camper and everyone that we

24:01

talked to that was like sleeping in a

24:02

rooftop tent just had the most epic

24:04

stories it's been on our bucket list

24:06

ever since and it is living up to the

24:09

height so when we first started

24:10

traveling and set our 100 country goal

24:12

there were a lot of people that gave us

24:13

a hard time about traveling so quickly

24:15

and I always said that we were young and

24:16

the goal was to see as many places as

24:18

possible so we could go back and spend

24:20

more time in the ones that we enjoyed

24:22

most and we're actually doing it if you

24:25

would have told 2018 carara and Nate who

24:27

were in who had just hit 100,000

24:30

subscribers that we would still be

24:32

traveling 6 years later and we would be

24:35

back in this country in this vehicle

24:38

things went way better than we expected

24:40

yeah was driving through such an epic

24:43

Camp the walls are tightening in they're

24:45

getting steeper this is

24:49

incredible let me see hold on we're

24:52

going for it no I'm kidding I'm kidding

24:55

no idea if we can fit under this bridge

24:59

okay I'm ready all right car is

25:01

literally up on the ladder making sure

25:03

we don't scrape this

25:07

bridge we're doing it we're good yeah

25:11

hopefully it's the same height all the

25:13

way through so

25:15

crazy no

25:19

problem we did it this better be a good

25:23

beach that was nice in 600 M you will

25:27

arrive at your destination just driving

25:29

off of the side of the highway towards

25:31

the beach wa very uh why are all our

25:35

campsites so

25:37

dangerous wow this is

25:51

sweet

25:56

so so the app that were using to find

25:58

most of our camping spots is called eye

26:00

Overlander and I was reading some

26:02

reviews about this spot and it said at

26:05

night they are bioluminesence in the

26:07

water what I thought you were going to

26:09

say

26:14

goats hello world how good is

26:22

this what a day

26:33

turns out we have a dining room after

26:35

all some reason kind of feel like want

26:37

to fall off yeah it is a little scary wa

26:40

look at the sky wow honestly if we just

26:44

turned around and went home now it was

26:45

all worth it this is everything that I

26:47

hoped that it would

26:50

[Music]

26:57

be all right all right we're heading

26:58

down to the beach may may not be going

27:00

on a night swim oh this is going to be

27:03

good I can see it in the waves already

27:05

look at that there like a glowing string

27:09

of Neon Lights being washed up on the

27:11

beach we've seen bioluminescence a

27:13

couple times at this point in our lives

27:15

but I've always had to like go in the

27:16

water and like Splash really hard with

27:19

my hand to see it it gets even brighter

27:21

when you step on it it's like stars on

27:24

the

27:25

ground all right let me see the bottom

27:27

of your feet my

27:29

God I wonder if this W that was a good

27:32

one this is so magical wo I'm not sure

27:36

if you can see what's happening right

27:37

now but we're just kind of moving our

27:39

feet around in the sand and it's just

27:41

uncovering all of this bioluminescence

27:43

I'm sure there is science to it but it

27:45

just feels like magic right now I've

27:48

never seen anything like it I'm just

27:51
