    Looks like you met Chaco the Bengal cat in Baja! He allowed all of us to accompany him thru Alaska with @wingsandwheelsalaska. He also did his best to keep the dogs in line. Enjoying your trip. :) Safe travels.

    This was great. We don’t want to take the Baja ferry because of Carlos🐾 and the dog requirements so we were curious how TMC worked. Their website is vague so this was awesome. Thanks.

    That's intense! I'd be so nervous about my vehicle the entire time. lol... I've always been curious about the Santa Rosalia ferry to Guaymas/San Carlos. I think that's the Baja ferry though that you mention.Really cool seeing they allow dogs. Damn, that's a crazy experience and then boom you're straight in the middle of Sinaloa!

    Very well done, every time i watch your Mexico trips i want to go that much more. I noticed you have the pocket 3 to video. I have one on order now and looking forward to trying it out. Can you tell me how you like yours? And how has it changed the way you vlog?

    Hey, Thanks! Yes, we added the Pocket 3 around New Years so we are getting it pretty dialed in now. I have to admit it's become my main vlog camera. It looks great, is easy to always have around, the mic is wonderful and it's become my A cam really fast. I think you will love yours.

    New subscriber here Kim switzer curious how you imported temporarily your revel to europe ports of transfer and cost to do so or better to buy one there and bring it back ?

    The temporary import process is really easy and we had IVSS UK as our shipping broker. Here is our video about shipping to Europe. It was super easy and our favorite way to see Europe. You can only bring back 25 year or older vehicles to the USA for import. And we had a Revel that we loved so buying and old van there didn’t make any sense for us. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qneXq5dvpLGyl7A.htmlsi=IP-CRNQ02_RNkfoZ
