    I just read that your not supposed to eat the seed of that fruit. Who would have known. They should have taken the seed out. I wouldn’t have known either Will. I loved this video. It’s such a relaxing place. It would be nice to spend 3 or 4 days there if one could afford it. Thanks for sharing this video! Praying you and Dawn have safe travels.

      It's recommended you don't eat them, but eating one or two raw seeds probably will not affect your health.
      It's also recommended not to eat more than two servings of Fish a week for the same reason, really. The toxins/chemicals can cause harm the more it accumulates inside your body.
      Plenty of things we put into our bodies have dangerous chemicals/toxins/whatever you want to say but are allowed at low levels/in moderation.

    The rambutan looked interesting. I’ve never seen one but heard they are high in vitamin c. Old fashioned bikes. Lol Everyone spoiled to e-bikes. Looked like a fun ride. No poisonous snakes? Yay. My daughter was close to being bit by a copperhead a few days ago. Scared her to death. Unfortunately where she is going to live soon has lots of them.
    Really enjoyed your adventure. Thanks for sharing. God Bless from Diane in Oklahoma!❤
