    Hello Kiki! Great post and insight! Lots of awesome information! Just curious… what happened after they confiscated your drone? Did you get it back once you left the country? Thank you!

      So in Egypt, they held me for questioning for about 5 hours when I arrived, kept the drone, and I’m one of the only people I know who actually got my drone back. And it’s because I went 10 hours before my flight, had my local guide come with me to speak to the police and then I sat for 8 hours in questioning and barely made my flight. They only gave it back to me because I had a local guide who somehow knew the police officer. They don’t really ever plan on getting it back to you. I 100000% would NOT recommend doing this or testing if you can get away with bringing a drone somewhere where it’s not legal because you’ll likely get it confiscated, spend time in questioning and that money and time will just have gone down the drain.

      In Belize, they confiscated it when I arrived and I got it back on my way out β€” that was a lot easier than Egypt but this was YEARS ago. So I’m not sure what the situation is like now. I would absolutely not bring it through Egypt.

    Thanks for mentioning the DroneMate App! I will definitely use that in the future, especially when I get into FPV drone flying. Beautiful pictures, btw!

Unforgettable memories from the ultimate girls’ weekend getawayβ€”with 18 kids, sunshine, and pure luxury atΒ @lascasitaspm 🌴✨

Las Casitas is managed byΒ @vehm.mx, the premier property management company in Punta Mita. They oversee the most exclusive villas in the area, and every one of their properties is fully staffed and loaded with luxury amenities.

This gorgeous beachfront estate in the exclusive Kupuri community features three private casitas, 12 bedrooms, 13.5 bathrooms, a stunning infinity pool, hot tub, gym, and beach access. It’s designed for big groups, but feels intimate, relaxed, and totally elevated.

The real MVPs? The incredible full-time staff. We had a chef, sous chef, pastry chef, butler, concierge, and housekeepingβ€”literally someone looking after our every need. Every meal was a gourmet experience, and every moment was effortless (which, with 18 kids, is saying a lot).

@vehm.mxΒ helped us coordinate in-house massages for the mamas, and organized a piΓ±ata for the kids and a mariachi band to celebrate Oliver’s birthday THREE-esta!

Perfect for a 40th birthday, girlfriend getaway, or large family tripβ€”we’re already planning our return. I can’t recommend it enough (or stop talking about it)!
