An avid gamer since childhood has brought me to a strange goal of virtually traveling the world through Microsoft Flight Simulator. Starting in Colorado, USA I have a goal of flying to as many different countries as possible in a small engine aircraft.

((Have a business trip this weekend so I am unable to continue the journey around the world and the tour of Mexico. For roleplay purposes you may imagine me spending some time exploring fishing villages, looking at Mayan cultural ruins, and relaxing on the beach. We will continue on Tuesday next))
Not my favorite thing but sometimes necessary with my goals. I think my longest was a three hour trip from Alaska to Russia.
We have reached the Yucatan and ancient Mayan kingdoms. Today we flew over some beautiful lakes, some thunderstorms, and some beaches. I have found that I do not like flying over the ocean but need to get used to it before our transatlantic leg. #MSFS2024 #flightsim #mexico #Maya #worldtour
Today we flew from Veracruz to Cardenas. Cardenas is a small town in the state of Tabasco in Mexico. It is not a popular tourist destination so not many people speak english. We will be flying towards Chichen Itza within the next few days. #MSFS2024 #flightsim #WorldTour #Mexico
Veracruz City is a port town on the gulf of Mexico in the state of Veracruz. It was established in 1519 by Hernan Cortez a Spanish Conquistador. This city is not a popular tourist destination but with a rich history, castles, and the blending of many cultures it does look pretty cool to me.
First leg for 1st September is Veracruz City. 2 things I noticed, the mountains in the state of Veracruz look a lot like Kauai Hawaii, and the cities look really cool. I would go here in a heartbeat. #trivia in the follow up posts. #mexico #flightsim #worldtour
Our final flight of today took us to Tuxpan de Rodriguez Cano. This is apparently the closes port to Mexico City and as such it is an important economic city. Interestingly in 1870 a colony of US Confederate Officers was established here to avoid prosecution. #mexico #flightsim #WorldTour
Today's first journey takes us from the heartland of Mexico to La Pesca on the gulf. This small city is basically a fishing town often used for weather reports. I never realized how empty northern Mexico actually is (first two photos) but this little town on the gulf looks amazing. #worldtour
that is giving crazy final fantasy vibes.
Overnight flight to the middle of nowhere Mexico. New Laredo to Las Norias. I wasn't able to find much about this region of Mexico, but it looks like it has an amazing cavern system and some interesting Eco-Tourism. If anyone knows this area of Mexico let me know what it is all about. #flightsim
I love this. We need more international cooperation with all nations.
Our 6th stop is Nuevo Laredo in Mexico. Often associated with drug cartels and other forms of organized crime this city is actually one of the most important locations for North American Commerce. It hosts the most border crossings b/w USA and Mexico. #flightsimulator #worldwidejourney #aviation
Started a journey around the world in Flight Simulator three days ago. I decided it would be fun to post about it here so feel free to join in on the journey if you wish. The goal is to fly to every continent in the world except antarctica and to learn about the places I land in.
