    You two are killing it. I love watching your adventures as you keep it real. Frankie in a bikini top was too funny. Stay safe 😎🚐🥾I almost forgot - I will be buying a Moon Shade and an air conditioner for my van in the upcoming month. How do you like your air conditioner?

      Hey MyLibertyVan! Thank you so much for the love, we are so grateful!!! Frankie looked good in that bikini - he's actually the first one of us to wear it haha Exciting about your upcoming buys!! The Moon Shade is 1000% worth it (Don't forget to use our discount code! get $30 off with code FNAVANLIFE moonfab.com/fnavanlife). The Zero Breeze is definitely awesome for directional cooling so when you've got the cold air blowing right on you, amazing! It won't cool the whole van down but it will cool you!

    Great video great place! You have to visit Chichen itza of you can?? Not sure if you still allowed but I went when I was younger and saw all the Mayan ruins climbed the main pyramid also went to Tulum and ruins there and saw the Senotes etc amazing stuff but bit off ten beaten track was a 4 and half hour coach excursion from where I was in Playa Del Carmen didn't know when I booked so was bit of a mission but so worth it!

    That place is very beautiful. I love how you had a cute patio to pull up to with your Moonshade. Nice in the produce haul! That toilet paper thing.. I have friends that are Mexican from Mexico and they said it was hard to get used to putting the tissue in the toilet. And their parents never would… so really it’s not weird if you thought it was. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Looks like the owners are doing a great job expanding! Yep for sure I would stay there.

    • @FnAVanLife

      Thank you so much 😊 Yeah the toilet paper thing isnt weird to us but we know it could be to people in the states. They really are expanding that place one of the coolest thing is you can pay 800 usd and stay for a whole year.

    Checking out places, that's what it's all about! That doesn't look like chapala though from the view of the mountains it looks like you're on the western shore of the lake looking across the water toward ajijic, mountains further north, and chapala to the right (more east along the north shore). I seem to remember Jerry of JC Travel Stories taking us to an RV park in chapala which is where I was expecting you went. But the vistas tell a different story.

      Okay, that explains it. Did it help?
      The reason for me is that it's summer and we have a lot of irons in the fire with family so don't get to watch every night. When we do, we're binging to catch up and do several at a time. Unlike winter when we have a lot more nights free to watch. So we haven't missed any but this time of year it can take a few days before we get to them. I don't know what other people are up to but could be similar causing instant response to be low. Lots of stuff going on. Today we went to the fair with the grandkids so no videos. Just how it goes I reckon. Have fun and keep gettin' it; all will be well. ☮️

    • @FnAVanLife
      @FnAVanLife  2 года назад +1

      yes we talked to a few, a lot of them either weren't there or were a bit more introverted. They pay $800 for the whole year to park there. The bigger structures like patios and the like have to be approved by the community and then if they decide to leave, they have to leave the building too or find someone to buy it, they aren't allowed to remove anything they build on the site. There was a whole container home!!! It's certainly a peaceful place to live for $800 a year!!!!
