    Ben made such a fuss about possibly being left on an island, but we all know he’d love it 😂
  • @Mlee03
    Ben - “why do people take their children on trips?” Also Ben - “what’s a trip we could take with the cats?”
  • @Cami_2006.
    The baby discussion had me dying, “Do you want your baby there or you just had nowhere to put your baby in for a few days”, as someone who doesn’t have children that’s honestly something I always wonder.
  • @noobie.nailart
    41:43 Bens' quiet "that's my monkey" about Abubu was somehow really adorable! 😅
  • @alyssaferry600
    As a parent, I could not stop laughing at them trying to figure out why people bring their tiny babies on vacation! 😂 Cris is right, we like our babies and just want to bring them places with us 🤷🏽‍♀️ We don't know why we do it either lol
  • @AlexxShmalex
    When I went to Mexico with a bunch of friends, we got to our hotel and found out only the Premium Adults Only side of the resort had air conditioning throughout. So we asked about the premium rooms just, ya know, out of curiosity and they offered to upgrade for free even though rooms were a $300 difference for each person. We tipped the woman very nicely, but I’m guessing when you go during an off season, independent hotels are more willing to offer free upgrades because of the vacancy

    As a mom, i can tell you there is no person on earth who wants the baby or toddler to stop crying more than mom. We bring snacks,toys and anything else we can think of to accomplish just this.
  • @Le_Cube
    I’m glad I was part of your vacation and will continue to support by purchasing Holo Taco😂
  • @Liz-ug6sq
    I’m honestly so proud of you guys for taking vacation. 😂 Please take more, it’s good for you.
  • @novarage1923
    C: Define Baby B: if you have to be held and cradled Me, a whole adult: IM BABY
  • @Nana7408
    “Freaks in a sex positive type of way” LMAO BEN
  • @SHHMANDA1
    It’s funny to see their dynamic. Ben tends to simply not understand and simply is more willing to think of different scenarios why ppl do what they do 😅
  • The congratulations you received for having dinner on a beach was my favourite anecdote of the stream. xD
  • @prairievibes
    As a polyamorous person, I’m DYING at Ben’s pineapple shirt. 🤣 45:28
  • @justpeachy97
    Zyler going back and forth between them in the beginning is so adorable. He definitely needs his parents 💜💜
  • @KimbiW
    Greece has lots of cats! Good place for Cristine to go on vacation if she can stomach the flight Edit: also iguanas are pretty quick when they want to be!
  • @jakim4u2
    My Dominican self is so happy to know you visited our wonderful island 💕
  • @allie56ify
    I wonder if Cris would be more comfortable with flying overseas if you guys drove from Ottawa to Toronto/Montreal and took a direct flight from there to your destination. So it’s just one plane and she doesn’t have to worry about layovers
  • @0delia
    Definitely call Air Canada. My husband and I EACH got $800 for our missed flight!
  • @tebetheia
    I love how much Zyler has come around to Ben 😂❤
