Hope Y'all made it home safe and sound. We've been watching the house build for some time now. Thanks for allowing us to ride shotgun. Take care and be safe..... Ingatz bro.... A Texan and Filipina, married 45 years. (And the Asawa has her own Buc-ee's lucky shirt as well!)
Good morning James looking good 👍😎it's must great to get out there can't wait its the time waiting that is the hardest part 😀and when Time comes it's crazy 😜ok by for now and thanks again for your video stay safe Sunday morning 😀
Philippine airlines, huh? Well best of luck to you guys. I fly that airline only if I must. I've been screwed quite a few times by them. It was probably your only choice flying from Iloilo during lock down. Safe travels.
@@DK-8181 I tried Cebu air back in 2013 a few time and those delays killed my vibes so Pal was my go to from then on. Both might be bankrupt in the next coming years
That was really cool you got to hook up with a friend can't wait for the next adventure please don't take too long to post I look forward to your videos 🤔
Wow that brings back memories My first trip to PI i wasn't able to make my connecting flight. I stayed in the place just on the other side of the parking lot, Syrian travels inn. The last shot of the food you shown before eating was the very first place I ever eat Filipino food. Lady was really nice and gave me few other dishes to try no charge. Never thought I would see that place ever again. So so cool 😎
Thanks for the update James and Mel so far so good hoping the rest of your journey runs as smooth. Nice to see you got time with an old friend 🙂 food looks good and a good change must feel good sure feels good to watch your journey 👍 hope you get a good night's sleep till next time stay safe and well the both of you God bless.
Iloilo airport brings back memories. Next time you fly into manila you should treat yourself and stay at the conrad hilton they have a great shuttle service as well. Hope you have made it back safely already..
Goodluck and happy trip sir texnoy with you wife..❤✈️🤗👊when u returm bring your family and till your friends try to visit here,,always welcome foriegners in my country!🇵🇭🇺🇸🤣🤣🙏
I would be so afraid of eating pre prepared food bc I would fear getting sick. I always eat from known places like McDonalds when I travel even though ordinarily I never do. I had diarrhea once on an airplane. Nothing worse. Well, almost nothing. You guys please be safe. I’ve been watching your year old videos now understanding more about you guys. How close to Terrell, TX are you? Take care.
I wish you both safe travels. I think you and Mel are an awesome couple. I started watching you when you arrived during the pandemic to work on your house. I will miss it, but I look forward to your life in texas too. I am in Michigan. Be safe guys
Excellent timing guys, at least you can get out and about in Manila. Manila is going into lockdown again later in the week. Not happy about it, have many relatives in Quezon city, including my stepson, who was just visiting his cousins! Safe onward journey! 😁😁
Oh that’s really nice. Someone Get up early thirty and willing to drive half way to hells gate and back just to make sure you Get Out of the Philippines 🇵🇭. Lol Yep lots of good people there for sure and seems like the ones you’re not related to are great friends .... Life is good.
Man its been a month and i took off from social media and when i get back i was surprised to see your latest video in the US! So i will start from here… hope you guys are doing great! Be safe!
Your timing is impeccable. You're getting out right in time!!! Let us know when you plan to travel back again because if your lick holds up then that's when the Philippines will have an open window Haha. Keep on keeping on man.
So true even here in cebu after a year of freedom we just got lockdown again to the 15days spin cycle. Meaning every 15days a different lockdown status craziness.
Love the channel Big Texas I am a young man my self my little sweetheart is in Bacolod city. I live in Arlington, Texas part of DFW as a 6th generation Texan with 10+ years of professional Chef experience I would love to cook you some grub sometime.
Hello my friend I was in the same hotel in 2020 July 30 I was there for three days I left my wife’s house in surigao City took a three hour private car ride to the airport in butuan only place I could catch a flight to Manila I had a rapid test done to go on the flight arrived in Manila was going to fly out that night to Chicago Korean Airlines said I had the wrong test I needed a swab test had to stay there in Manila for three days for my swab test to get my clearance to move on to Chicago I was there with my wife for five months because of the Covid finally made it back to the US on August 3, 2020 I’m hoping to go back to see my wife and now my daughter it was born last year before after I left my daughters birthday will be this December 17, 2021 I’m hoping they will let me go back without a quarantine for a long period of time we will see but I remember that little hotel it was OK for the time I had to be there until I can fly back to the states I’m sure you guys made it home already of the season we’re good videos from you in Texas with your beautiful wife thank you again for your videos stay healthy stay safe God bless Scott from Chicago
Six Flags, that was a really fast flight, were you guys flying on the concord? Your VIP Limo driver must be a pilot also, just couldn't hear the siren.
One flight done, 2 to go 👍 Really liked the comparison in last video Jan. to July , the visual refreshed my memory ! Never seen a San Mig store , sweet , I'll be saying cheers to you guys when you arrive back home safe in Texas 🙏😎
Safe travels guys and enjoy the sites along the way home. Time to get back to the Lone Star State for some Texas BBQ!! Look forward to see both Mel and you do some Texas two stepping on a video lol! I am starting my search in the Dallas area for a retirement home and get out of crazy Ca in 2023. If you have any recommendations I am all ears. Currently looking in the area of Whetherford. Once retired we plan on splitting time between Texas & Lingayen PI.
James I've been watching your older 2 yr old videos and learned that your father died from parkinson's disease. There is a class action lawsuit for parkinson's disease cause by paraquat which from the way your used and abuse herbicides and pesticides. Even though your father is dead you can sue in his name. You owe to yourself to follow through with this lawsuit.
If I wasn't saving all of my vacation time to go visit my wife in the Philippines, I would love to come and visit you. I would love to have a beer and a meal with you. You seem like very good people to me. I would be happy to be your friend
I think his terms are up so there will be someone else filling that position. I just hope it’s someone who loves the Philippines and it’s people more than they love their wallet.
@@albertthedogeinstein7983 kind of. I am going to use passive cooling and the first floor will be 6 ft underground. I am also exploring the possibilities of floating the walls as they lay on the ground and then raising them in 4'x8' sections.

Hehe, man have I made that ILO-MNL and reverse trip too many times to count. Good to see y’all arrived safe and sound in MNL. 👍🏼
That sound is an airbus. Boeing engines sound different.
Thought NCR was on enhanced and everytging closed. Continued safe flight
Excellent timing guys, at least you can get out and about in Manila.
Manila is going into lockdown again later in the week.
Not happy about it, have many relatives in Quezon city, including my stepson, who was just visiting his cousins!

You travel like I do. I want clean accommodation but don’t go for the fancy resorts. I love Korean food. I even make my own kimchi if I feel the need.

Did Melinda pack any of the dried fish to take back or did you still have some already there absorbing the Texas heat?
OFCOURSE SHE DID!!!!!! Whew smellllllllllly

Stay safe out there it's so hard to travel within the Philippines again
I was thinking man that plane is sure taking off fast lol

That has to be one of the fastest takeoffs and landings in the history of aviation.
Glad you were able to get out and try something new. Yesterday we tried a new to us BBQ place. I think it might have been the best BBQ I've had.
I always hated this drive going home ,
If I wasn't saving all of my vacation time to go visit my wife in the Philippines, I would love to come and visit you. I would love to have a beer and a meal with you. You seem like very good people to me. I would be happy to be your friend
"I'm in a hurry cause I ate some curry" lol
No sirens this time? lol departing airport looks so much like Jacksonville International. Swore it looked like yall flew over Davao City…fishy lol
manny pacquiao for president
Just love those ridiculous masks and shields!
Paper work, paper work, when was the last time you took a dump,,,,,baHAHAHA i KNOW. CRASS
I can't wait to get over there and build my castle. Hopefully du30 will be out of office then.
I think his terms are up so there will be someone else filling that position. I just hope it’s someone who loves the Philippines and it’s people more than they love their wallet.
@@TomBTerrific i agree, i dont like him either,, i think the ICC is waiting also.
I dont blame you!!!
You building the same style as James? (Cast-in-place)
