  • Taos, New Mexico is considered one of the most underrated places in the country. This is how we prove that to be wrong. Meandering through the downtown historic district, White water rafting the Rio Grande, and rising 5,000 feet above the land of enchantment with views that will leave you speechless.

    Brenda here. I am so very grateful for this video. You see this was on my bucket list but my back is so bad it will never happen. You gave me a gift by showing us this from your perspective. I sat and cried during this video due to joy. I just watched it a second time. Thank you! You just have no idea how much you impact others lives by showing your adventures. Bless you both.

    Oh my goodness I did not want this vlog to end! It was your best one yet❤. I have been a subscriber from the beginning and y’all just get better and better every week. I loved that you showed the whole process of a balloon flight , from filling to finish. The views were stunning, great camera work. And the pure joy on y’all’s faces was a joy to watch. Dropping down on that river, holy smokes! Now I know I need a balloon ride in my future ❤. And congratulations on almost having 100,000 subs! Won’t be long till you get that silver plaque!

    2:50- Fresh cacao in Taos not only kinda rhymes but it also somewhat hearkens back to the fact that archaeologists in Chaco Canyon have found traces of cacao on Native American ceremonial vessels dating back to pre-European times. Yes, that means that the Native Americans of what's now New Mexico had communication and trade with Native Americans in what's now the central part of Mexico and considered cacao to be a special commodity!
    Thanks for this!

    Thank you Kellie for always looking so good and Cody for the history lessons. Love your restaurant tours and the foods that you order always looks so good. Those fries that Kellie ordered that came with her steak look so good that i wanted to eat off her plate, like Cody did. That was a pretty cool chocolate shop as well and wondered how different those chocolate varieties tasted using those different types of coco beans. Inflating that balloon looked so cool. Another stellar video you guys, Thanks from Canada.

Hot air balloon ride is a bucket lister for sure, sadly may not happen in this lifetime. I was moved to tears by the drone shots of the sun rays spreading through the clouds gently touching the mountains and land and even on my iPad screen it took my breath away…twice. This may be my favorite video you’ve posted. I loved virtually sharing the joy and awe of your experience🙏❣️
