La Tortuga Overlanders

La Tortuga Overlanders A radical journey. 2 People, a dog and a modified UHaul truck seeking the meaning of life through Ce Join us in our comical adventure that has no end date!

A living journal about our journey from beginning to...whenever! We have experienced so much in our 48 and 58 years but are far from done, the best is about to start! With 5 children between us, it can't be any more difficult than that, and we have waited our entire lives to travel, explore, seek truth, find out the truth about ourselves - who are WE? So much of our lives has been defined by other

people, other dreams, other goals, others motivations - we aim to find US and in this journey perhaps better understand human nature. After all, isn't there supposed to be more than working, paying taxes and bills, then dying?

Adapt Improvise & Overcome
I know you all have the same stories about how fng strange life is right now so I’ll just move on to the photos of our new temporary life 😂
Yep. Garage. But wait!
We are going to have the most incredible SteamPunk garage apartment y’all ever seeeeen...
AND it’s about 8x the size of our so feeling’ oversized happy right now! 😍🙌
We’ve eaten every southern comfort food we missed, still shocked at the cost of everything, getting used to (not really) apartment dwellers...

So. We have been 4 full days repatriated.

Day 1 walk around in circles in our yard like Zombies
Day 2 call everyone like we never ONCE had WiFi the past 3 years
Day 3 shop like an idiot at Walmart and eat like pigs
Day 4 binge watch Tiger King on netflix
Feelin’ like ‘Merican again 😂
Oh, and that’s us camping in in front of our garage because it’s all rented!
Everything is bizarre to say the least but this is what I’m grateful for...

Endless water
Uninterrupted electricity
Internet
Good friends & Neighbors

I’m happy to be back home ❤️
David...not so much 🥴
Copper has adjusted to his new campsite really well and has several new running mates 🐕😊

I guess we shall all see what happens over the next few months!

*** update****
We are absolutely certain we both had ‘the Virus’ and of course we are here to let you know we survived . Pretty sure WebMD was not updated when I posted this at the end of January 😂

So according to Web MD, I have the Flu, Pneumonia, Lung Cancer or just just the common cold. David made it through last week so I’m hoping for the best 😂💪
And this is honestly the most beautiful beach to be sick on 😍

Still here enjoying this 🙌

Not all beaches are the same. This one, Playa Chacala is just north of Puerta Vallarta and it’s shady, breezy and cool at night!
Copper is definitely a beach baby and loves to swim 😊

8 days in Veracruz Mexico.
Still waiting to get our truck out of the Port 😂🤗
I hated this City when we drove through at 90mph (drama 😆 it was only avg. 25mph) 28 months ago as we raced towards the clear blue water of the Yucatan Coast.
It’s different now.
And so is Veracruz.
The internet is a little sketchy, the street food is a ‘lil squishy, the cat 1 hurricane winds every other day will knock ya down an alley...but this is a cool cat fun place to be!
We left Big Bad Beautiful Colombia October 22...
We’ve arrived with Copper. He’s exhausted also 😆🐕😆
