    Welcome back Scott, Cecile, and Liam! My first stop any time I come back from the Philippines is always Whataburger. In fact, it was the first place I tool my wife when she immigrated to the U.S. 18 months ago. She loved it too! She's also grown to love Chuy's Tex-Mex, Chicken Express, Chipotle, and anything from Buccee's. Agree with you on the security camera. Thanks for verifying the camera you bought on Amazon works over there. I will be sure to pick one up for our home in Kalibo the next time I go over this year. Loved the house tour on the other videos. Enjoy the cold weather in OK. It's been pretty cold this past week here in Texas.

    The most time that I spent in the Philippines was for 10 months and I was fine with eating food without really feeling like I was missing American food or te variety of foods. The thing that I love about being in the Philippines is that I'm not surrounded by junk foods and I eat healthier there than here in the States. I always lose weight when I'm in the Philippines and gain the weight back when I return. I can't wait to retire in the Philippines so I can enjoy life.

    I 100% agree about the food in the States. After 4 straight years of living in the Phils, I finally returned back to the U.S for a summer vacay in 2023. With the exception of reuniting with my family, the food in the States was the biggest thing I was looking forward to. Have a safe trip and enjoy the foods. Make sure to vlog your first few meals upon your return.

    Safe travels for you and your family. Blink is also my choice in US, but I use a different system in our house in the PI. Steaks here in the PI are not in most places not going to be of the same quality. Grass fed beef as well as Grain Fed can be found in the high end Restaurants in the High End Hotels are very good, but the price will give you sticker shock. It's Beef from New Zealand, Australia etc and very good. Best wishes for the future plans on retiring in the PI. You are preparing well and I have no doubt you will strongly positioned to be successful in Retirement. I am here for another month and a half looking forward to going to one of the Beaches you spoke to me about. Thanks again.

    • @Marker44

    The flights to and fro are a killer, even just to New Zealand or back to Mactan Cebu, we dislike it especially we are not getting any younger. Its always a relief to arrive at either destination for us. Worse when the passengers behind, bang your seat or the ones in front shove their seat back in your face. We usually fly with Singapore Airlines or Air New Zealand. Have a good trip, for what it's worth. LoL.

      I always dread the travel back and forth. One big reason why I don't think I could continue going back and forth in retirement, aside from the cost.

      @Marker44 ...Wow! I thought "no way" that I could monitor my home in the Philippines while back in the States due to WiFi issues. I use Arlo on my home here and was thinking of switching to Blink.
      Arlo has too many issues that make me deal with the customer service Indians a lot It's a pain in the ku. How do you charge your cameras in the PI from OK?
