Hi, my name is Aymara, this is my husband Gordon and we're Ways of the World
0:06
We've been slow traveling through the Yucatan Peninsula for over 30 days
0:09
and today we're finally crossing the peninsula from Bacalar to Campeche to start exploring the
0:14
area's colonial cities. At the end of the day we finally made it to the Rainbow City after an
0:19
exhausting seven-hour bus ride. Good morning
0:57
We have a long travel day ahead of us today. We are crossing the entire Yucatan Peninsula from Bacalar to Campeche
1:04
And in order to do that, we have to take two buses, I think smaller buses, so I don't
1:08
know how comfortable it's going to be. The first one is from here to a city called Chetumal, which is like 45 minutes
1:15
And the second one is from Chetumal to Campeche, which is like six or seven hours
1:20
So let's see how that goes. When we bought the tickets the lady was very clear. She's like way out there
1:35
And then but it's like the opposite direction of traffic to Chetumal. So I saw this bus
1:40
and thought that looks like the bus to Chetumal. Thankfully I went this way and he said that
1:45
we can use this ticket so let's see. I have the best seat in the house for our trip to Chetumal. Got all the leg room. So
1:53
we're off to a good start. So far bus travel in Mexico has been a breeze. Like the buses
1:57
are relatively comfortable they're usually on time and they're easy to book so it's been pretty
2:02
smooth sailing hopefully the next bus will be like this too we made it to tzedemal i think we
2:09
have like two hours of wait here just because that was like our only option and now we have to figure
2:15
out breakfast because we haven't eaten and we have no idea where we're gonna eat there's no cement
2:22
around here So, let's see. Are you hungry
2:34
I'm hungry. We have about two hours here, apparently. So we can find some food
2:45
Let's keep the other spoon dry. We use this one for steering and we keep yours clean dry in case we need to put your vacuum That brilliant That how I keep you around Hats in the room
3:03
I think I could use another one. It's not that hot. So, brilliant
3:10
You have to admit. The bus driver just confirmed that it's going to be a long very long travel day with a lot of
5:03
stuff so we should be entertaining but it's pretty comfy here we have a lot of room so let's get set up
5:12
alcohol wipes like the nasty window so we can get good shots
5:17
of the trip so we can show you how it looks outside these are very handy there's always people's foreheads
5:37
I so sorry We at our first stop We in the middle of nowhere Not really sure what happening
6:10
It's getting close to lunch time though. I'm a little bit concerned about the food situation. We didn't really bring a lot of snacks so..
6:16
I see some options. That was like a quick five-minute stop, and we're back on the road
6:22
A cigarette stop. It's like a turkey. Memories. Where's the cement? Where's the cement
6:32
Where's the cement? Where's any kind of food, besides for chips? We just made a stop, which was my bathroom stop
7:01
I've been holding it for like two hours. They didn't have toilet paper
7:05
I came back to the box to get toilet paper because I have it. And the guy said that I don't have time to go now
7:11
So who knows? I might be on my side. Let's quickly show you our home for the next nine nights
9:41
Wait, this is our living room right here. We have a huge bedroom
9:49
This way we have the bathroom. Oh, I see myself in the mirror
9:56
Very clean. Fully equipped kitchen. Working space. We have another desk in the bedroom
10:07
Last but not least... Our balcony! Oh, you can totally open it
10:13
You can open it. And you fall into it. I always thought that you wouldn't die
10:20
No, obviously. Why would they open that? Oh well. Let's go get some food
10:30
Whenever we are somewhere that has a kitchen, the first thing we do is go grocery shopping
10:42
We sign up for the local gym. Now it's time for us to have dinner, we just ordered some fresh salads and honestly we're exhausted
11:03
I'm happy that you did not have to be in that bus today, it was a very long travel day but
11:08
we made it and we've been walking around, we're inside the old town and it looks adorable
11:13
it's really pretty here, it's quite the change of scenery for us from what we've seen in
11:18
and we can not wait to show you that in the next couple videos so please don't
