The plantain tacos looks awesome!

It's one of our favorites to make now. - Liz

Isn’t Yucatán fabulous? I love spending time exploring the region. Valladolid, I think, has gotten more popular with tourists since I was there in 2013. Anyway what a nice little town. The region as a whole, even though the landscape is flat, has a certain magic to it. The presence of Maya culture and antiquity definitely helps. I also remember a golden glow and quality to the winter afternoon light illuminating stone walls and colorful buildings ... and cloud formations. Thank you - now I’m going to have to go again this winter and stay in Merida.

*the Yucatán Peninsula

[@robertfenyk1199]

Oh ...we swam in Cenote Zaci on a cloudy day and unfortunately it looked less appealing than what you experienced. Nevertheless it was great seeing it in its sunlit state.

[@kylepifer9509]

Dresses to me are so much cooler than pants or shorts and tops!! Plus you look respectful of the locals.

[@ricardo_cn]

Finally! I was waiting for this video to see my hometown and I hope it was of your liking. Regards from the UK

[@EatSeeRV]

We loved Valladolid! It was a shame we had money stolen here but we did enjoy the area a lot. Wait for next week's video! 🤩

[@ricardo_cn]

@@EatSeeRV Sorry to hear. Really unheard off but it did happen... sadly. Any idea on where it happened? I am planning to come this year and I may know the people or If possible to find out who it was to shame him. My apologies for the bad experiencie

[@EatSeeRV]

I'm 99% positive it was a tour guide there. He was the only one by my backpack when I left it unattended. I kept an eye on it when I was in the water so it was likely when I went to take pictures. There were reviews of this happening to others on Google. I just didn't think it would happen to us.

[@SILVAWOODWORKING]

You guys are having such a great time in Mexico, and you both have a great open mind about knowing and accept that you are in a another country and embracing other cultures, People and food. Thats the main key to succeed abroad.

[@EatSeeRV]

We're living it down here! I totally agree. Thank you for watching! - Dennis ✌️

A very charming town in Yucatan, Valladolid is quite the destination to visit: there are so many things to do in Valladolid and all around the area. It's a place where art and architecture are at the forefront, with its beautiful pastel buildings and old historic churches, and the cuisine is simply delicious.

[@patricialaureles9475]

Mexico is sooo beautiful!! I love my country!

[@EatSeeRV]

It is!

Been to the bee area and loved it. 💯 They also served us lunch on our tour.

[@garretlewis4103]

The bee tour......it was all the buzz! 😀😂😀😂😀😂😀 Sorry to hear about the money theft. As you said, it could have been worse and it could happen anywhere. People are people no matter where you are in the world. Stay safe.

[@EatSeeRV]

😂🐝😂🐝 So true. If there's opportunity someone will always try. - Dennis ✌️

[@hideawayhomesllc5103]

Yes....bringing back more memories of our visit to one of my favorite small Yucatan towns. Stayed at the same restaurant/RV park, did a few cenotes and also did the Ek Balam ruins. Great vid, keep it up and safe travels.

[@robertfenyk1199]

Ek Balaam was stunning in the late afternoon right before the site closed. Those stucco masks on the pyramid...wow.

I really enjoyed today's Valladolid video! If you're in the city for a little bit longer, hopefully you'll get a chance to check out the Hotel Meson del Marques, located right on the edge of the main square. Really excellent colonial architecture, the food's really good, and the paintings adorning the walls are beautiful!

[@EatSeeRV]

Oh man we'll have to check out when we return! Thanks for the tip!

[@geraldb9706]

Awesome video! Valladolid looks like such an amazing place and surrounding area. I’ve seen other channels showcase this area and it really seems rich in history and traditions. Thanks again and can’t wait for next week! 👍🏻😎🇨🇦

Amazing videos. I love your style and production. Thank you for sharing such wonderful travels.

[@EatSeeRV]

Thank you!

[@thee_calamity]

That mondongo looks similar to menudo. It’s perfect for breakfast when you’re hungover lol. Squeeze a bit of lime in there. Add onion, cilantro, oregano and hot sauce and maaan that is good. I eat menudo with a bolillo (Mexican baguette). Hits the spot!

[@EatSeeRV]

I feel like we've tried menudo but I can't remember if and if so, where or when?! But we know the name! - Liz

[@aussiecanuck8067]

Aboriginal Australian bees are very similar.

[@EatSeeRV]

Oh wow! That would be wonderful to learn about !

Love you because you love cats. God bless you all 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@mariebrumer3440]

The senotes are beautiful. Really interesting about the bees. It's a bummer about the money being stolen, but it could have been worse. It's good that it was the first incident in the entire time in Mexico. Look forward to your continued adventures. Be safe!

[@oscarlugo8761]

Thank you for another great video. I never comment, but I just want to say that I like the figurative "plunge" you guys take (well, with Liz it's a LITERAL plunge.) It's extremely refreshing to see foreign tourists take an interest in Mexico other than our beaches and other popular tourist resorts and tourist TRAPS. You are seasoned travelers and you don't let the occasional petty thief ruin your adventures! Happy continuing travels! Congrats! You're already close to 50K subscribers!

I love pan fried green plantains with salt (patacones) that I first had on the island of Bocas del Torres in Panama. Glad I learned how to cook them.

[@Vancouver_Dan]

As always, thanks for a great video! You have it all: food, culture, activities and an overview of a nice looking RV park. I am very sorry to hear about the theft. As you noted, it could have been worse. As you said, it was a $1000 peso reminder to secure valuables everywhere. I had my change purse (containing less than $60 pesos) stolen from my pocket during a clever 2 person bump pick-pocket incident in CDMX. I realize I was a soft target with my purse in a loose shorts pocket with me completely distracted by the sights around me. The incident woke me up and led me to be much more careful about securing valuables and staying alert to who is around me. Now as for scorpions ...

[@EatSeeRV]

Sorry to hear you had a similar experience in CDMX. Bummer, but yes it could happen anywhere! Yes... As for the 🦂😣

Yeah we've tried chapulines (grasshoppers) in Oaxaca! - Dennis ✌️

Hey guys !! I was wondering which video you covered finding fuel and DEF . I forgot. Is DEF available at the pump or do you have to buy it by the jug?

We don't have DEF so it hasn't been covered. But you can buy it at an Auto zone here.

Have you tried Xtabentun? A Yucatan liqueur made from fermented honey? I found an overnight pharmacey after i tried it.

Yes we share it in our next video! Super tasty 😁

While watching the videos I always try to imprint the special bits I'd lie to comment on. I also am aware that sometimes I'm long winded with all the items I mention. Sorry guys. It's just the videos are so overwhelmingly interesting and informative. I so enjoy traveling with you guys to places I'll never see. Bit jealous I'm not 40 years younger. I have no regrets about my life, just times are so different as are the experience opportunities. I'm grateful I still get to 'join' you in your travels through this medium. Stay safe, happy travels and keep smiling. 🙏 👍 🎥 🌷 🙋‍♀️

U guys made out 🤔 ... that was really an inexpensive lesson 😏 ... enjoy 🤠

Valladolid will grow more because it is going to be an important terminal of the Mayan train and factories of various technologies are installed

You're right! That surely would help it

Excellent video, new street food, bees, cenotes , craft beers and a lowlife thief!!!! I feel bad for you guys. It sucks.....I’ve been there. If you want I’ll send Guido down to take care of it 🤨. Enjoy and be safe.

[@tarac5137]

I learned so much in this episode! Some of those cenotes must have had issues to require life jackets. As you (and other vloggers) have noted there tends to be less protective measures (guard rails, etc) in places (compared to US). Narcos was not for me, too violent! Oh, maybe you would like Ingobernable, we have been watching that to practice listening to Mexican Spanish. Safe travels! ✌🏻

[@EatSeeRV]

Honestly at the "required" place I think they were just nickel and dimming money out of us. What platform is Ingobernable on? We love watching Taco Chronicles for the same reason. Just dont watch it hungry! - Dennis 🌮

I have had that cow stomach before. My old boss is from Vietnam and him and wife made us some. It tasted alright but I would not eat it all of the time. Sorry to hear that your money got stolen. There was no locker or anything to put it in? It was nice to everyone swimming, Those tacos looked good that you made. Can’t wait until your next video. I liked today for your video but I could not find it. Is everything ok? Hope to see you soon! Stay safe.

[@inaperfectworld8087]

You say it was very hot and humid there , what time of year were you there , summer or ??? Also the water in the cenotes , is it very cold ?? Are you familiar with a restaurant called Restaurante El Cenote ??? Thanks.

[@EatSeeRV]

No we are not. But I did see that gordo x el mundo went there recently! The cenotes are cold but each cenotes water temp varies. That was Feb. April and may are the hottest months in the Yucatan. They don't have summer per say like the USA or Canada, it's a rainy season and dry season. - Liz

[@gogomogo7848]

Hi enjoyed your videos, I was here 2 months ago. I have a question and due to your extensive travels you would probably have some suggestions. The sea weed is making the beaches a mess on the east coast of Yucatán. Can you suggest any small towns on the north or west side where this problem might not exist? Thanks!!

[@EatSeeRV]

No as far as we know its a problem everywhere. We've also heard that the sargaso will be washing up on the beaches of Florida this year too. - D

[@genaroignot3332]

Nice princess !!

[@babsshaffer2652]

You two produce awesome videos! Such great music choices! A scorpion in your camper!? Creepy! Here’s a few questions: Can cenotes be salt OR fresh water? Why are you not masking up anymore? Do you plan to get vaccinated in Mexico?

[@EatSeeRV]

Thank you! Yes there are some cenotes that mix with salt water, but that's because of it's location. Technically the Cenote ha access to fresh water aquifer. We do wear masks, we just try to be mindful taking it off while we talk to the camera. We follow mask policies especially in public places, but outdoors or alone we take them off. - Liz

Fantastic VLOG! I really appreciate that you guys show the good and the not so good of your travels (scooter troubles...cat fur balls in shoes....money vanishing....bad wifi....scorpions on your pillow......tropical storms......hitting the RV roof in a tunnel......drinks that look like someone puked in them......campgrounds with no dump stations......traffic jams through small towns with forced donations......leaky RV roofs......getting food poisoning, etc). Here is an idea......I think if you guys get 7 new Patreon members then Dennis has to overcome his fear of heights and cliff dive in Acapulco (google it to see what I am talking about). You would get to 100k subs easily with that footage.....the only downside would be that Liz would have to find a new husband. Also.....I hope on your way back up north you have the opportunity to visit Guanajuato.....that is one amazing city. Would love to see it again!!
