This JS instantiates a marker at these coordinates: this.markers = [{ lat: -28.092472, lng: -52.419667 }]; which points to a field in southern Brazil. Anyone wanna go see what's there? :) https://www.google.com/maps/place/28%C2%B005'32.9%22S+52%C2%...

Enter the lat/long as your first answer on savethedate.foo, it links to an unlisted youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9N9K898TtWQ&feature=youtu.be...

This reminds me of another puzzle which requires being able to afford to travel to specific geographical locations (Cicada 3301). I really hope this isn't how Google intends to find new employees.

I think "you can always count on a good time at the beach" refers to actual counting.

And here's the transcript, with some numbers:

    0:00Magic
    0:03I.
    0:06See
    0:10_
    0:12a
    0:16beach,
    0:19-yes.
    0:21_
    0:25I
    0:28explore

There is muffled audio at the end of the video. What is it from? That's a clue.
