today is a travel day for us we are
taking off on an airplane we are flying
to Malta do you remember on Christmas
Day the actual present that we got the
kids the big adventure that we got the
sailboat thing that we're going for
seven days of learning how to sail well
that's happening right now we are
leaving the campground right here we're
gonna take an airplane we're going to
Athens Airport we're gonna fly to Malta
we are going to get on a sailboat we're
sleeping on the airplane on the airplane
we're sleeping on the sailboat made in
2014 we sold all of our possessions put
our jobs and set off as a family for a
1-year adventure in Costa Rica the one
year was not enough so we rolled up our
sleeves and figured out how to make this
journey continue we are world touting
[Applause]
join our family Largo Jessica Avalon and
will as we travel the world to connect
deeply to local cultures go on epic
adventures and grow closer as a family
[Music]
in the last episode of world town we
journeyed up to Delphi Greece to try and
see the home of the world-famous Oracle
so let's talk about the main event here
what makes this town the city this
ancient place so so so significant
magical powers some magical powers but
bad weather did its best to try and
derail our plans why won't they let us
in oh sorry yeah I know are you gonna
open later or no we went yesterday we're
now heading to Malta to begin our 10-day
boat life adventure hey Jess are you in
AP good morning
by the way I'm totally loving that new
haircut of yours again so many mid-bite
learned nothing it's okay I'm not in the
middle of eating a nasty orange but I
like this haircut too
I don't know what its gonna mean you
like it like this but the things are
those yeah I like the TV antenna look
good morning well good morning what are
we doing today it's uh it's chocolate
its travel day so these are crazy days
for us trying to pack up a family of
four in a space this big what everyone's
like I did this I did that I'm clearly
dyeing my hair at the same time go
whatever Avon's packing list with her
long go I'm gonna go for his packing
list with him in a minute wills digging
bags out from underneath
[Music]
two backpacks and hopefully they're all
gonna fit in Ryanair we're taking
Ryanair against or like it's a bag too
small let's measure it it sounds kind of
chaotic and I mean I think it is I think
it'd be a little dramatic to I mean we
always get there I don't think I'll be
ever mystified ville no we have gotten
there just in the nick of time
fun stuff anything about toilet reason
cause the kids are packing by themselves
and we know that sometimes that means
are they gonna take something that I
supposed to take and maybe take
something that's not on the list I got
these new things at the dentists I
totally love them different gums helping
your gums right so with the kids
we have always ever since they were old
Prasad they've always dressed themselves
we kind of and with packing as one as
soon as they got to a point where they
could understand what I was saying I
would tell them okay you need one pair
of pants and they go get a pair of pants
to put it in the bag I don't even make
them a list unless we're going someplace
and doing something new like sailing and
the people that were working with have
given us a list it's very specific of
stuff that we typically don't take I am
this serious it's okay I'm a serious
minimalist Packard I'm not
[Music]
so I have a question for you
yes you sure that you want to trust
right here after the fiasco report last
time I never wanted to fly around here
again frankly but they were the only
airline left flying it's an array of the
only one we're gonna take oh well okay
we put at least expensive one five times
as much and gone on a different airline
so we felt prey to their their their
devious tactics and we're prepared we've
weighed the luggage we've weighed the
kids we've measured everything we
printed our boarding passes Greg you
don't need to be wait well you didn't
need breakfast so now you're under the
weight limit you're okay I'm I'm so
nervous about taking Ryan Aaron yet I
like to stick to my guns when I say I'm
not using someone again damn it I'm
convinced that we've
learn how to beat the system in Ryanair
we want to get charged we will make it
fine we will actually bring your own
water we will not get charged for that
we won't use the bathroom no no this
will be a charge free flight for us I'm
so excited this is this is us learning
how to travel 101 do you think this is
gonna work guys and what do you get one
thing - what its gonna be like do you
think it's gonna work what's gonna the
bow
you know what I mean I am I'm yeah I
hope it's gonna float
okay so I'm going to admit it I feel a
lot of responsibility going on this boat
for ten days because I'm the wild card
although I've been on boats before and I
bound them for up to three weeks I've
never been on a sailboat and I've never
bought it about this small and I get
seasickness
I got a ton of ginger powder so I'm
hoping this gotta help but have those
little things that go on here risk for
the pressure points what do you think
he looks darling house
so we decided instead of leaving the car
at the campground paying what was it 15
euros a night just to store it we are
gonna do airport parking here which is
gonna be a lot less and hopefully it's
gonna work out right we'll look so it
looks a little scary but we got all the
valuables out of the RV so we'll be okay
you come rob us now we're all locked up
ready to go
[Music]
and we have arrived we are well I don't
think I'll just be carrying this much
weight yet but I'll manage I'm just
gonna be happy I'm not gonna not gonna
poo poo on right in here anymore good
thing Ryanair dude - like $1000 we had
two pants for you because you're so
fresh pleasure microphone being so
nothing report right now nothing to
report right now this is Jessica
reporting the are vnn the white your
phone's not going on
[Music]
that's right
no that one right there behind it yeah

different than baklava that they eat
well you know my bank will buy this
addiction is they're so sweet I have to
do a little piece a little bit every day
what are you eating you always get me
when I'm eating I'm always eating I
don't know it's similar to baklava but
it has a different feel Oh like a
different dough oh my gosh
mmm it's very sweet do you guys want to
try it you know a J site this is like
shredded wheat that breakfast cereal
shredded wheat wonton see so if you're
wondering where the last month went if
you look at the little weather thing
down below it automatically sprinkled
today's date which is February 16 the
last time we did a video was like no
sorry January 5th we found a way to time
travel
these videos are less than a week apart
we've just been relaxing chilling we
went to Maui
we basically what we did after we
finished with Delphi is that we simply
set foot down on the southern part of
Greece and the Peloponnese area and we
hunker down
what are you making how on
for like a whole month month and I do
some healing for this it doesn't look
much better but I feel better we caught
up with videos right half on biggest and
we had one really big big big goal we
align our goals for 2019 the first time
in such detail that would make a project
manager jealous we've never done this
great additive a task list we have goals
we have some goals we have and we have
more than one item on each one of those
looks like we did previously there's
tons more I can share more right now one
of our big things is we're planning a
group trip to Morocco and December I'm
so excited I don't know we were going to
a group trip to Morocco or did not know
we're gonna announce it just like that
oh well it's not open yet
you guys still planning and also okay
shut that if we're gonna get any of this
committed to the trip yes we are playing
a trip to Morocco we did put it out on
Instagram now we're putting it out to
you guys if you guys are seriously
thinking about going to Morocco so I
think it'll probably be another month
before we actually have registration
open and all the details and the prices
and all that if you're interested coming
we'll put a link in the description so
like a five thing question and you can
get on the kind of pre pre lists to
register before we open it and advertise
it because there's only gonna be a
certain amount of space so
but own that we had a great time in the
Peloponnesus we did
[Music]
how you feeling so far about right here
well I'm pretty happy to get on this
flight without any extra charges with
extra charges you didn't tell me about
happy reporting we made it past security
we've got all of our luggage intact and
no fees I'm Ryan and we got you not
charging me for this bag of carrots I
got down there
what's in the snack bag Avalon
anything else
we would hide that quicker fighter is
coming to put - let him see that
or the ride just about as comfortable as
an Athenian bus we are landing it is a
good day though a very comfortable ride
honesty that never reclines I just
wanted I want to note for the record
that I saw Whitecaps on the water when
we were landing I have good vision and
I'm an adult glasses vision the people
behind the camera don't know that and
with all that we are now in a new
country
it's beingness you know how they look I
think we have to talk to camera Ward
security now immigration
we're the taxi and we're going people
driving the other side mode yes I'd be
like the UK side aqua on the left-hand
side of the road well you're having
flashbacks from your days and you can
RBI I have no such such concerns this

something I'm actually a superhero I'm
just pretending to be a mommy right now

dream will bring to pushing your hair oh

here we go
welcome aboard m/v look see because this
is gonna be your high net yes see what's
that look so far look forward such a
newbie I don't know I need to lingo stop
it that way yeah that way well hi there
Jessica you what I've done is I've made
up the three big cabins for you also
gonna become manager also your Kevin
for this week will be this side so this
is our master cabin oh boy
with awful lighting
unpacking a bag what what just happened
[Music]
what just happened
not only I think I'm gonna throw up
already I just tripped the boats have
these little things these what are these
for
this why is it like a window like that I
tripped on this thing I don't know
Margot's bag and I tripped but I didn't
see that and then I came in here and
bang my head on this and this thing's
like a palace compared to the RV I
should be running into bags this
monstrosity you can stand up in every
bedroom I can't say that for the RV I
know we definitely know I'm actually
embarrassed how little I know we're
gonna look back on this video one day be
like oh my god the birth this is calls
are called realizing a dream starting
very very slow oh my gosh it's totally
moving all over the place
it's gonna be a long week we're gonna
determine whether we're gonna make it to
the sailboat in the future ship the RV
all over the world and this isn't
exactly rocking that much but I hear
rocking we might need a bigger boat that
doesn't rock as much that's a good idea
and I'm thinking I'm thinking catamaran
all the way okay yeah the same issue do
I really think about the rock right now
so as I was saying this is going to be
Wow
this is gonna be one of the things that
we've determined for the next couple
days can't we make this life work out
for us or are we just gonna go and say
boy that was a dream of ours until we
all realized there was no way this is
gonna happen I don't think that unless
me if someone gets sick the entire week
then we're gonna throw in the towel on
this one but we're gonna try our best to
make the best of the lighting mercy and
of the experience
we've been on the boat for about I don't
think it's been an hour yet we'll a
Navajo went out to get pizza and I'm
gonna tape this because I don't know oh
my god is totally crooked I'm all over
the place everyone in the family is
super excited to learn how to sail and I
literally were dock I mean the guy did
say it's pretty Rocky I feel I could go
throw up right now like I want to put my
big coat on my puffy hat and my uggs and
go lay up on the deck for the next 10
days Steve said that it's it's
particularly rocky right now because of
a swell and you guys know this has
really been a fear of mine like I'm the
weak link I'm the one who gets motion
sickness and I got sick in the car
getting here for 15 minutes and then we
got on the boat I was off the dock and
I'm really sick right now I don't want
to be I don't want to be the one that
prevents us from realizing this dream
and I'll do it but I'm kind of just
worthless right now so I've got my
ginger tea I'm gonna make myself a cup
of tea Steve said that anything ginger
really works great which this thing I
really dislike most in life is ginger
but I'm gonna eat it I'll eat it raw
I'll drink it I'll do whatever I have to
do I've got the pressure point bands
I've got Dramamine I'm gonna do whatever
it takes to to make it through this
because I don't want to be the reason
that we don't sail because everyone
really wants to do it
what's hot broad okay maybe maybe one
day we'll flashback to this like we'll
be like ice out sailing like belly flop
and all over the place and be hanging
off like a rope and he'll flash back to
this of my first hour on his sailboat
where all I wanted to do was cry Carla
my bed and throw up
so stranger things at the time and I can
overcome this
[Music]
[Music]
time to let it go and baby won't you
come on breathe be open skies this bed
is too small all right what this is
meant for two people that you have
survived the night the first night and
no we didn't sleep all first go but you
know it's so nice to be an inn because
of lemonade we can't all fit in the same
bed firstly I'm squished
I am very squished oh it's so
comfortable daddy said when he woke up
he said I haven't slept this well in
years you have the nice bed you don't
understand if you sit back there all you
hear all night is either the door
bumping up against the wall or the boat
bumping up against the other boats in
the dock I like what we're sleeping
that's exactly right
you're gonna have to just get used to
vote light because the master suite up
here lemonade you hear the dogs barking
you'd hear how did you sleep Largo yeah
you slept well you didn't hear anything
no not really
yeah well did you hear that much are you
just being tonight it was loud it was
yeah
so you didn't sleep well you dramatic oh
no I was awake when dad came over to do
whatever he was doing up there's a lot
of creaking and cracking and everything
else on this boat Steve did say we gotta
get we're gonna have we're gonna hear
that into in it yes to get used to it
and we warm enough like that's like
aliens look at that thing were you warm
enough um with hot water bottle yes
larga were you warm enough
mmm would hot water bottle yeah I was
just fine your mom in the hot water Otto
she is my little hot water bottle I am
pretty warm okay so this is our life for
