WORLD'S LARGEST GYPSUM DUNE AND HOT SPRINGS IN THE DESERT (faceplanting)

  • We drove through the border of West Texas into New Mexico, and we were greeted by a magnificent host of desert mountains. Just when we thought the mountains were grand, we entered into a pure gem in the Land of Enchantment- the world’s largest gypsum dune. We enjoyed a wonderful day and evening at White Sands before continuing farther north in our van.
    Despite the thoughts of the desert being tremendously hot, several cold nights brought us to the idea of treating ourselves to a natural hot spring right on the Ro Grande. And it was certainly well worth it.

    Such beautiful places!!! I definitely want to visit White Sands! Can't wait to see where you're headed next! The food you prepare is amazing! I would never think to prepare such elaborate dishes on the road! Bravo!

    So happy to see you guys are still traveling and thankful for the cooking inspiration! (although our van doesn't have a fridge) we are currently in Florida but soon will be making our way to The Wild West. Your videos are so awesome, we can't wait to be there!

    • @ChadandClaire

      It’s definitely a weird time to travel, but we believe there is a safe way to do it especially with living in a van. Excited for you to be in the Wild Wild West! 🤠 Safe travels!!

    These get better each episode. It makes me so fucking inspired to see other people doing what they truly love, no matter what the social standards are. No matter what this and that person says. Keep exploring! Can't wait to see you guys soon.

    Another great video! You have no idea how helpful these videos are. My wife and I are in a 1992 Toyota motor home and loosely following your path. We have been in Florida for the past three weeks and are just east of New Orleans at the moment. After that we are heading to Big Bend and then to White Sands! Of course visiting a few stops in between. Cant wait to follow your lead in those National Parks. (Except my wife is now refusing to slide down a sand dune ha ha.)

    • @ChadandClaire
      @ChadandClaire  4 роки тому +1

      That’s so cool that you’re following our path! A 1992 Toyota motor home sounds super cool!! Big bend is incredible and you can always try a smaller dune! 😂 Hope you’re having a great trip! Thanks for the support Ben!

    Hello, looks like you had fun. I live in NM has have been there multiple times. Never rented a sled--as I am alway by myself. I don't think I'd be too coordinated. Never been at sunset though--I need to do that!! Funny story about White Sands National Park is it was sneaked into a bill. It helps gain more land.

    • @ChadandClaire

      Interesting story about white sands! I gotta look that one up! It was beautiful at sunset!

    I adore you guys, you're the best! You've given me so many ideas on how to use a smaller more manageable vehicle to travel. Are you guys going to come out to Washington state at all?

    Need some outriggers on the Captain America Styled sled lol... Yeah the desert has a beauty to it, but when you start heading north to the Giant tree's, that is my idea of beauty.

    • @ChadandClaire
      @ChadandClaire  4 роки тому +1

      Chad here. I completely agree. I love the desert but can’t wait to see some real big forests and trees. Oh and the captain America sled was far too powerful.

      @ChadandClaire  4 роки тому +1

      Hey Alex! Yes! We do plan on shipping to Canada! We need to take some time to figure out how to add that option to our website. But, if you are interested we also can do your order through PayPal, Venmo, or Zelle as well! Just shoot us an email of what you’d be interested in and an address and we can make it happen. 😁
      Thanks for your support!!! 🥳

    I don't think 30$ is a good price for a hot springs. In desert hot springs California can soak all day in hot springs for 7$ a person
