1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,560
What's up y'all?

2
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:12,200
Thanks for joining the Travel Tales and Talk podcast with Derek and Makayla.

3
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:13,200
I'm Derek.

4
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:14,200
I'm Makayla.

5
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,480
Thanks for listening and enjoy the show.

6
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:22,040
What's up y'all?

7
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,040
I'm Derek.

8
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:24,040
I'm Makayla.

9
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:29,720
And thank you once again for joining us on our adventure in Spain, Ronda, to parts unknown.

10
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,960
It's pretty accurate.

11
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:34,680
So baby, where are we headed next?

12
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,480
We are headed to the Caminito del Rey.

13
00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:41,680
For those who don't know, it's another hike for us.

14
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:42,680
A dangerous hike.

15
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,840
One of the most dangerous hikes in the world.

16
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:51,880
So this piece of hikeage, I'm sorry.

17
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:58,280
I don't hike so I don't know what the proper terminology is, but it is about, it's an 8

18
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,440
kilometer path, which is about five miles.

19
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:06,680
And it was once considered the most dangerous path in the world because it began to decay.

20
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:13,080
They laid down these foundations in like the 1900s and over time it decayed and they didn't

21
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:14,480
use it.

22
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:19,560
And then people would sneak in and people died trying to hike this trail.

23
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:30,080
Well, what Derek forgot to mention and add context to this hike is that these are paths

24
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:34,880
not really carved, but fixed to the sides of cliffs.

25
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,960
They are about 328 feet in the air.

26
00:01:38,960 --> 00:01:39,960
They're suspended.

27
00:01:39,960 --> 00:01:40,960
100 meters.

28
00:01:40,960 --> 00:01:44,920
And there's even a suspension bridge that goes in between some of these paths.

29
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:51,160
So it's an interesting hike on the sides of cliffs.

30
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,840
The path was created so the workers at the hydroelectric plant could transport goods

31
00:01:55,840 --> 00:02:07,000
and materials to maintain the plant and to feed themselves to have food and things of

32
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,960
that nature in stock.

33
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:14,180
Because they usually go and stay for weeks at a time because they were there to work.

34
00:02:14,180 --> 00:02:18,200
So we decided to make this hike.

35
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,000
Not just a hike, but a family hike.

36
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,520
So we had London Rose with us, the 11 year old.

37
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:23,520
The 11 year old.

38
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,280
And this is not a quick hike.

39
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:31,760
This is a three to four hour hike, which is going to be fun.

40
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:39,920
So when we arrived, we arrived in the check-in right and you get a hairnet, a helmet, and

41
00:02:39,920 --> 00:02:40,920
a radio.

42
00:02:40,920 --> 00:02:41,920
With earphones.

43
00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:42,920
With earphones.

44
00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:45,840
And there are three different options.

45
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:52,160
The first option is you can have a guided tour in Spanish or a guided tour in English.

46
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,720
Or you can take the tour by yourself.

47
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,160
Unguided.

48
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,560
I think we should have done the unguided tour.

49
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,960
That way we could have took our time.

50
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:04,960
Yeah.

51
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,760
Originally, I booked this excursion.

52
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,480
And let me say this right now.

53
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:20,000
If you're thinking about going to the Caminito de Rey, you will have to book this tour about

54
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,720
two months in advance.

55
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:27,720
So they release tickets two months in advance and I recommend you try to snag one of those

56
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:28,720
tickets.

57
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,400
Because they only allow so many people a day.

58
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,680
I think maybe a thousand a day or something like that.

59
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:34,680
Something like that.

60
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,080
And then tickets are limited anyway from the beginning.

61
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:38,080
Yeah, they're limited.

62
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,480
And they release them in two months increments.

63
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,840
So you gotta check the calendar.

64
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,560
And the day hours went live.

65
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,640
I snagged them and thought, you know what?

66
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:56,000
Let's get the tour guide so we can kind of learn about this path and the walk, et cetera,

67
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,400
et cetera.

68
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,640
And I booked this darn tour guide.

69
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:00,640
He was amazing.

70
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:01,880
Don't get me wrong.

71
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,000
But this man was not with the whole pausing to take no pictures.

72
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,360
He's like, come on.

73
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,120
The group is leaving you.

74
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,160
Speed up.

75
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:20,280
And so I found myself in the back of the group often with another woman.

76
00:04:20,280 --> 00:04:25,620
This other woman, she was with her husband and she had the same idea that I thought.

77
00:04:25,620 --> 00:04:31,920
But when she booked her ticket, she booked her ticket like two weeks prior to our trip

78
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,120
and she had to get what was left.

79
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,000
And what was left was the tour guide.

80
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,440
She wanted to do the non tour.

81
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:39,440
The unguided tour.

82
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:40,440
Yeah, the unguided.

83
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:46,200
She can take all of her pictures at leisure as well.

84
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:50,120
I did enjoy the guided tour, but it did seem like he was pushing us along.

85
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:51,120
Oh yeah.

86
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,840
It was like, you got two seconds, maybe three seconds.

87
00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:54,840
Hey, this is that.

88
00:04:54,840 --> 00:04:55,840
All right, let's move.

89
00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:56,840
Yeah.

90
00:04:56,840 --> 00:05:03,320
And what you don't realize, when you're up there on those cliffs, the view is beautiful.

91
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,800
It's so beautiful.

92
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,600
And we really, like you could easily spend like a half a day.

93
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:11,600
All day.

94
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:12,600
Yeah, or in Derek's case, all day.

95
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:13,600
All day.

96
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,800
Up there, just watching, looking at the views.

97
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:23,000
Just imagine walking along the Grand Canyon, like being down.

98
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,320
On the side of the Grand Canyon.

99
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:25,320
Yeah, on the side.

100
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,920
Not on top, but on the side, inside the canyon.

101
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:28,920
Yeah.

102
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:33,040
So you can look down over the edge and see the water below you and everything.

103
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,920
And it's just breathtaking.

104
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:39,960
Yeah, I think with the guided tour, we could have had lunch in that rest area.

105
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:40,960
Oh yeah.

106
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,280
With the unguided tour, we could have had lunch in that rest area instead of blowing

107
00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:45,280
right through.

108
00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:46,280
Oh yeah.

109
00:05:46,280 --> 00:05:47,280
I think he gave us like a five minute water break.

110
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:48,280
Yeah.

111
00:05:48,280 --> 00:05:49,640
I was like, dude, I want to take this in.

112
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:50,640
Nope.

113
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,640
He was like, you got some cookies, eat that, drink your water.

114
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,640
You got some water, drink it, let's go.

115
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:55,640
Let's go.

116
00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:00,400
And he mentioned something about the local habitat and the animals in the area.

117
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:01,400
And then he just moved on.

118
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,240
I'm like, well, are they going to come out?

119
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:04,240
Are they nocturnal?

120
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:05,240
Will we see one?

121
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:09,360
He's like, oh, there's a bird, there's a this, there's a that.

122
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:10,360
Let's go.

123
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,160
I was like, man, I wish he would slow down just a little bit.

124
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:14,160
Yeah.

125
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:18,320
So if you're thinking about booking a ticket and thinking, oh, I'm going to book this guided

126
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:22,760
tour, but I'm going to do a self guided tour.

127
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,560
No, you're not going to do it because the hard hats they give you are color coded.

128
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:27,560
Color coded.

129
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:28,560
So I tried that.

130
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:29,560
That's how he spotted me.

131
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:30,560
Like, oh no, no, no, come on.

132
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:31,560
Yes, yes.

133
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,880
Because I had blended in with the unguided tour people.

134
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,960
He was like, no, your hat is clearly not the same color.

135
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:39,960
You belong with us.

136
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:40,960
Let's go.

137
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,440
The guided tour was blue helmets.

138
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,200
I believe unguided was yellow or something like that.

139
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:46,200
I think it was red.

140
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:47,200
Red.

141
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,200
Yeah.

142
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:49,200
It was a different color.

143
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:50,200
Let's put it that way.

144
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,200
Different color.

145
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:55,380
And this is where my beautiful wife in her Instagram moments, she's taking pictures of

146
00:06:55,380 --> 00:06:57,320
every cliff, every rock.

147
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,440
Hey, London Rose, there stand here.

148
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:00,440
Now lean over the edge.

149
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:01,440
I'm like, lean over the edge.

150
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,240
You know, Good and Well, don't do anything like that.

151
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:05,720
Hold on to the rail and lean over.

152
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:06,720
I did not say that.

153
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:07,720
I want to get the mountain.

154
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,240
I'm like, no, I'm not doing that.

155
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:10,240
That's a long fall.

156
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,240
You're not going to throw me under nobody's bus.

157
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,680
You better get out of here with them shenanigans.

158
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,200
Once again, I have photographic evidence.

159
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:19,680
But they were spectacular pictures.

160
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,680
I was like, you better not do me.

161
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:22,680
Spectacular views.

162
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,040
No, no, it's once in a lifetime.

163
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:26,040
You got to do it.

164
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,300
If you're in that part of Spain, you got to take that tour.

165
00:07:30,300 --> 00:07:32,600
You got to make that walk.

166
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,840
And it might sound crazy.

167
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:35,840
It may sound dangerous.

168
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:40,960
I know we mentioned that it was once the most dangerous path in the world, but they've renovated

169
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,960
it to where it's as safe as it can be.

170
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:51,720
Yeah, and it was only the most dangerous, look, dangerous, dangerous hike path in the

171
00:07:51,720 --> 00:08:02,720
world only because when they shut down that area because the path needed to be repaired.

172
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,160
And people were sneaking in.

173
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:10,400
They were climbing over the fences, going through the fences to get on these cliffs

174
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,800
paths that weren't stable, and they were falling off.

175
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,520
And that's why it was dangerous.

176
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:22,240
It's not like now they build new, like the government actually came in.

177
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,120
The government said, hey, we're losing too many citizens to this.

178
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:31,840
Let's just go on and we'll spend the dollars to get this done right.

179
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:32,840
And that's what they did.

180
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:38,600
And because when you're walking along the path, you could see the old original stone

181
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:45,520
concrete walkway underneath these new and improved metal ones that the government set

182
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:46,520
into place.

183
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:47,520
Yeah.

184
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,960
And then also people were breaking in trying to scale the cliffs.

185
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:50,960
Oh yeah.

186
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:56,560
Like we're talking about straight up and down, and they're trying to scale these cliffs.

187
00:08:56,560 --> 00:08:59,520
And unfortunately, they meet their demise.

188
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,240
But some people love doing that stuff.

189
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,280
I'm not one of those people.

190
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,200
And this is where, you know, I almost lost my wife on this one.

191
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:07,200
Stop it.

192
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,680
Man, she was running on this small path.

193
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:13,800
Her coat got caught on the side of the cliff.

194
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,320
And she goes a stumbling, I'm like, oh no, exaggeration.

195
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:18,880
She's going to fall over the side.

196
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:19,880
I'm like, oh no.

197
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:20,880
And she like, oh, I'm good.

198
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:21,880
I'm good.

199
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:22,880
I'm all right.

200
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,480
I only stumbled because I was, I was fast.

201
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:27,480
I'm not going.

202
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:28,480
I was not running.

203
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:29,480
I'm not crazy now.

204
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:30,480
Come on.

205
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:39,320
I was speed walking, speed walking really fast because you know, I am clumsy by nature

206
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,000
and that's why I thought I lost you.

207
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,960
He called my name in such an aggressive manner.

208
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,320
My reflex attitude clicked in like what?

209
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:50,800
Because I was like, stop running.

210
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,040
No, don't run.

211
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,240
And I guess God was like, I don't like ugly.

212
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,960
It made me trip.

213
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,120
And I tore my jacket on the side.

214
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,480
I don't even know what it, cause it's a smooth rock.

215
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,880
Like what, how did I tear my jacket against this cliff?

216
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,280
So my jacket was literally.

217
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:10,500
It was ripped open.

218
00:10:10,500 --> 00:10:16,120
It was all I have was a sleeve.

219
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,120
It was ripped open.

220
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,920
And when you fell, I thought, I thought you had cut yourself.

221
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:21,120
I thought you were hurt.

222
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:22,120
No.

223
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,120
And you bounced up.

224
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,600
You, I'm trying to take these pictures.

225
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,200
I'm like, baby, are you okay?

226
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:31,600
Cause you knew, you knew the tour guide was going to yell at me for being behind the group.

227
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,240
So I'm trying to get my picture in real quick.

228
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,560
You calling me for unnecessary stuff.

229
00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:38,840
There's signs all over it said, do not run.

230
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,720
I was not running.

231
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,520
Once we're going to sell this now.

232
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,120
I was not running.

233
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:46,680
You were a light job.

234
00:10:46,680 --> 00:10:47,680
Whatever.

235
00:10:47,680 --> 00:10:50,000
I thought you were going over the side of the cliff, baby.

236
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,000
My heart is beating so fast.

237
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Don't call my name like that.

238
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:54,000
That's all I got to say.

239
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:55,000
Because I was terrified.

240
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,560
I'm like, she is not, she is not, oh, she's not, Makalah.

241
00:10:58,560 --> 00:11:01,120
And you just start talking.

242
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:05,240
I was just trying to get to this spot that I saw with this beautiful view and I wanted

243
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,360
to take my picture.

244
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,320
And I knew that guy, the tour guide was going, yeah, come on.

245
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,720
No, I was not.

246
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,560
No, I want to get my picture in.

247
00:11:15,560 --> 00:11:17,640
We were all into the other group.

248
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:18,840
They creeping up on us.

249
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:19,840
They were.

250
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:20,840
Oh man.

251
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:21,840
That was, that was hilarious.

252
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:22,840
That was hilarious.

253
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,240
But I wasn't the only one.

254
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,440
No, I was not the only one.

255
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,200
We met our new traveling family.

256
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,200
The Langles.

257
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,200
Yep.

258
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,200
Yep.

259
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,200
Miss Langles.

260
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:35,480
She was back there with me as Beth.

261
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:36,480
Well, okay.

262
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:37,480
Let's rewind.

263
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:44,240
So in our group, like I mentioned, there was this couple that got their tickets late.

264
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,160
So they had to get what was left, which was our tour guide.

265
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,720
And they were Beth and Hank.

266
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,360
And Beth spent a lot of time with me.

267
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,600
So she and I would swap pictures.

268
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,120
Like she loved pictures as much as I did.

269
00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:59,720
So and what I do rather.

270
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:04,400
And so she would take pictures, you know, and if I took a picture, a beautiful picture

271
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,720
and she was in it, we would airdrop it to each other and everything like that.

272
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:13,880
So Beth was back there too, getting her shots in, collecting her memories as well.

273
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:18,880
But Derek would like to take a moment to tell you a little bit about the Langles.

274
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,960
I just can't stop laughing because you almost fell off the side of a cliff, baby.

275
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:22,960
I'm so sorry.

276
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,360
But the Langles though, we met them standing in line and we started to talk.

277
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:28,880
We sparked up a conversation.

278
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:35,480
We come to find out that I think Beth and Hank both lived in Kentucky.

279
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:43,080
Beth graduated from UK and their retired school teachers touring Europe, Spain and Portugal.

280
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,240
It's a bit exact.

281
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:45,360
So let me interject.

282
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:51,440
So how they stood out to us, okay, you know, we're here in Spain and even though like we're

283
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:56,840
on these tours, it's not often that we see another American.

284
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,120
So it's like, hey, you know, it's almost like seeing a family member.

285
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,280
It's like, hey, you're from my country.

286
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:09,520
Because we were in line and there were a lot of people from different parts of Spain, Germany.

287
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,720
There were a lot of Frenchmen there in our group a lot.

288
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,400
And then it was Beth and Hank and us.

289
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,280
We were the only ones from the United States.

290
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,480
So we naturally gravitated towards each other and linked up.

291
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,640
So yeah, we just sparked a conversation like that.

292
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,360
And they spent some time in Lexington.

293
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,400
We currently live in Lexington.

294
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:30,400
They're retired educators.

295
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:35,480
I think Hank was a principal and Beth was a fifth grade teacher.

296
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:40,960
So we had that where my wife is a Spanish teacher, had that connection and they kind

297
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,320
of live close to us in Columbus.

298
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,960
But they retired and moved to Colorado.

299
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:51,440
And they're in Spain or in Europe because it's like nine feet of snow in Colorado.

300
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,720
They said they have to get out of there.

301
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:59,000
I was like, yeah, why did you retire to Colorado?

302
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,000
Snows all the time.

303
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,520
Well, that's my birth state.

304
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,320
I was born in Colorado Springs.

305
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,160
I mentioned to Hank, I said, I've never heard anyone retire to Colorado.

306
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:11,960
They always go to Florida, somewhere in Texas, somewhere warm.

307
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:17,840
So and the crazy part about them, they had a business card, a travel business card where

308
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:22,380
they had all their information on it, email address, phone numbers, QR code.

309
00:14:22,380 --> 00:14:27,460
And what they do while they travel, in most cases, they go to like these third world countries

310
00:14:27,460 --> 00:14:30,240
and help out with their dentists.

311
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:35,320
They help people with dental hygiene, those who can't afford it, they go out and provide

312
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:36,320
it.

313
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:37,320
An amazing cause.

314
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,120
So we're going to hopefully link up with them one day and make one of these trips.

315
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,800
They were from, they had just came in from Nepal when we met them in Spain.

316
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:51,040
So those are going to be our new travel buddies.

317
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:59,680
So, we're still on this walk and there's this, was it a rope bridge that we had to cross?

318
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,440
It was a rope bridge.

319
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:02,440
I didn't want to do that.

320
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:03,440
Like Indiana Jones.

321
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,320
I did not want to lie to you.

322
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:07,920
I wanted to turn around.

323
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:12,600
I thought it was going to be like the path was going to be like that, the wooden path.

324
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:17,280
I thought it was going to be our way, all the way to the end.

325
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,880
They didn't mention this suspension bridge made of ropes.

326
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,920
Yeah, the rope bridge was how you got out of the Camino de Rey.

327
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:29,200
That was your last tour of the hike.

328
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:33,080
You got across this bridge to get to the other cliff to get out because that's where the

329
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,080
exit was.

330
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,520
And I think what got me was the tour guide said, there can only be four people on it

331
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:38,520
at a time.

332
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,400
I was like, oh, come on, bro.

333
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,600
Are you serious?

334
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:44,600
Are you serious right now?

335
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:45,600
I didn't even hear him say that.

336
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:46,600
I guess because I was in the back.

337
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:47,600
You were in the back.

338
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:48,600
Yeah.

339
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:49,600
And I was like, four people at a time?

340
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:50,600
More than four.

341
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:51,600
Well, it can only handle so much weight.

342
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:52,600
I was like, oh, man.

343
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:53,600
I've been bamboozled.

344
00:15:53,600 --> 00:16:01,200
I don't know if I would have made this trip if I knew that was the last part of it.

345
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,200
That was pretty scary for me.

346
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:05,840
I don't know.

347
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,360
I was excited.

348
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,680
I felt like Indiana Jones somebody.

349
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:10,680
I really did.

350
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:11,680
You the adventurer.

351
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,680
We're doing all this because of you.

352
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,680
I think you're trying to get the insurance money.

353
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:17,680
Hey.

354
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:25,200
So we're wrapping up the hike and we really have no plans.

355
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:26,200
We have to make a decision.

356
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,200
Where are we going next?

357
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,160
Are we going to go to Granada?

358
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:30,680
Because it's pretty close.

359
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:35,400
Are we going to drive directly to Sevilla?

360
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,120
So what did we decide to do?

361
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:42,760
This part of our trip, I had no plan.

362
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,800
There was no plan.

363
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,360
There was no plan for the Ronda day.

364
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,040
There was no plan for after coming to the day.

365
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:54,160
And I just remember on that little break, our little water break, looking at my phone

366
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,920
thinking, hey, where are we going next?

367
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,320
And clock in locations.

368
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:04,800
And I thought about Granada, which is another city in Andalusia.

369
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,800
I wanted to see the Alhambra there.

370
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:08,800
This beautiful.

371
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:17,440
That's another beautiful Moorish building that we learned about in Spanish class.

372
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,840
And then the other thought was Malaga.

373
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:27,720
Because when we landed in Spain, we went and we saw Gronika in Madrid, which is that huge

374
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,840
Pablo Picasso painting.

375
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:37,920
And it got me thinking, hmm, Picasso has a childhood home in Malaga that is now a museum.

376
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,240
And I thought, well, why not?

377
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,120
We could take London Rose there.

378
00:17:41,120 --> 00:17:42,840
She's learning about Picasso in school.

379
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,320
She just saw Gronika.

380
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,560
Why not?

381
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:47,560
So I had Derek.

382
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,720
I said, hey, here's our option.

383
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,960
We got Granada or Malaga.

384
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:52,960
We can do them both.

385
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,800
We can drive to Malaga, then to Granada.

386
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:55,800
Or you want to go, you know.

387
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,800
Then we just said, hey, let's just do Malaga.

388
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,360
Malaga's pretty close, 45 minutes away.

389
00:18:02,360 --> 00:18:03,560
And let's go.

390
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:04,960
So we hop in the car.

391
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:06,520
And we're off.

392
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,480
And we checked the tickets.

393
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:13,360
Tickets were pretty affordable to this, you know, Picasso museum.

394
00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:15,320
And we get to Malaga.

395
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,240
Yes.

396
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,880
And drive straight to the museum.

397
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,760
And what are your thoughts?

398
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,040
My thoughts are we should have done more.

399
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,280
We should have done a whole lot more.

400
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,120
We dropped the ball once again in Malaga.

401
00:18:31,120 --> 00:18:33,560
Well, I'm just talking about Picasso's house.

402
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:34,560
Oh my goodness.

403
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:39,000
It was kind of disappointing.

404
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,640
I thought it was going to be his childhood home.

405
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:42,640
It was.

406
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:43,640
But I thought there was going to be furniture.

407
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,960
Maybe his old cribs and couches and sofas, something.

408
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:50,960
It was just his paintings.

409
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:51,960
Yes.

410
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:52,960
Kind of a letdown.

411
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:58,880
It was his home, which I could imagine was beautiful back in the day.

412
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,360
It was multi-leveled, you know, beautiful architecture.

413
00:19:02,360 --> 00:19:04,520
But it was basically an art gallery.

414
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:11,040
They had one room set up to the way they thought his living room would have looked based off

415
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,560
of pictures and things.

416
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:18,880
And you know, the nerd in me, you know, the home decor nerd in me was like, oh, this is

417
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,040
beautiful, you know.

418
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:26,280
But after that, it was just like, you know, back to reading about the paintings.

419
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,960
Not to say that, you know, that wasn't exciting.

420
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:35,440
It's just that when you're expecting this, but you get this, it's like, oh, I wish I

421
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,120
had did a little bit more research.

422
00:19:37,120 --> 00:19:39,480
And maybe we could have just drove straight to Granada.

423
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,840
I thought it was going to be something like Graceland.

424
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,680
Yes, exactly.

425
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,680
But it wasn't.

426
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,800
And you know, my family didn't want to eat or do anything there.

427
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,840
It was just like, oh, let's, I'm tired.

428
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:55,840
I'm tired.

429
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,760
We did a hike and then we drove all this way to go see these paintings.

430
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:00,760
Let's just go to Sevilla.

431
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,480
I don't feel like driving to Granada.

432
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:09,400
And so I'm looking at the GPS and I'm seeing, you know how you look at your, the map you

433
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:10,720
can kind of see when there's a water.

434
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:11,720
I'm like, wait a minute.

435
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:12,720
Are we by the beach?

436
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:13,720
The beach was like behind.

437
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:14,720
It's probably a mile away.

438
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:21,720
Not even a mile, like a couple of blocks away.

439
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:27,360
And I don't feel like going to see no beach.

440
00:20:27,360 --> 00:20:28,360
Let's get on the road.

441
00:20:28,360 --> 00:20:30,240
I don't really do beach, baby.

442
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,800
I would have liked to just, just seen it.

443
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:33,800
Just seen it.

444
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,480
Just say, hey, we went to Malaga and we went to the beach.

445
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:37,880
You saw the beach.

446
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:38,880
And nope.

447
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:46,480
So we hopped in the car and not realizing that we missed out on a lot because, you know,

448
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:51,360
and I talked to my friend, the one that lives in Spain, she was like, oh no, you should rather

449
00:20:51,360 --> 00:20:52,360
do this in Malaga.

450
00:20:52,360 --> 00:20:55,000
There's not much to see in Malaga.

451
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,160
And I was like, okay, well, all right, forget Malaga.

452
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,160
Man, we started doing some research.

453
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,600
Derek, tell them what we missed out on.

454
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,600
We missed out on a lot.

455
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:08,960
A lot, I tell you.

456
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:15,440
So we missed out on the cathedral of Malaga, also known as the one arm lady.

457
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,760
I wish I was seeing that just because of the name.

458
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:24,800
And then they said the port of Malaga, it's this amazing architecture.

459
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,840
You should get, you gotta go see it when you're there.

460
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:31,040
I looked that up and said it's a must see.

461
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,000
And then go to the beach.

462
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,000
You mentioned it.

463
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:35,000
We should have went to the beach.

464
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:36,000
I kind of want to go now.

465
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:40,040
Cause they said they have nice beaches.

466
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,580
Nice beaches that we missed out on.

467
00:21:42,580 --> 00:21:44,520
And then the fortress built by the Moors.

468
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,720
Can you pronounce that for me, honey?

469
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,480
The Spanish teacher, the linguistic.

470
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:50,480
The manquita?

471
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,240
No, that's the one arm lady.

472
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:54,240
We have notes you guys.

473
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:55,240
Right here.

474
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:56,240
Oh, the Alcazaba.

475
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:57,240
Yes.

476
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,240
Yes.

477
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,360
Yes, we missed out on that.

478
00:22:01,360 --> 00:22:06,040
Another Moorish structure that we missed out on.

479
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:07,040
Yeah.

480
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,760
I love taking that stuff in.

481
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:15,920
You know, we're learning so much about the Moors all up and through Spain and particularly

482
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,160
the Andalusia region.

483
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:19,160
Very.

484
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:23,160
Another structure that has stood the test of time.

485
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,560
And the great thing about it is once again, they didn't destroy it.

486
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:27,560
It's still standing.

487
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,800
Yeah, cause you never know.

488
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:39,520
When Ferdinand and them came on in, they either, they chose to either keep what these Africans

489
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,080
built or tear it down.

490
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:42,080
Yep.

491
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:46,120
The good thing they kept it, cause it's from what I read is in Marvel.

492
00:22:46,120 --> 00:22:49,440
It's a must see and we didn't do it.

493
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,440
Well, we just gotta take another trip.

494
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,560
I'll let you plan that one too.

495
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,080
Let me find somewhere to hike.

496
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,640
I don't know about no more hikes, babe.

497
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,200
So we have, I have a question for you.

498
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,740
I think we talked about it.

499
00:23:08,740 --> 00:23:13,480
So what is it that you wish you would have known before you arrived in both locations

500
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,360
that we visited on that day?

501
00:23:16,360 --> 00:23:24,560
Well, for the Caminito del Rey, I wish I had brought snacks and things.

502
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:28,280
I did get a little hungry and I was thirsty.

503
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:29,280
I wish I had done that.

504
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,880
And I felt like I did a pretty good job with the shoes I had on.

505
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:38,280
I wasn't uncomfortable, but that, for me, that's pretty much it.

506
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,920
I wish I had brought more provisions.

507
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:42,880
What about you?

508
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,600
For me on the hike, I wish I had better shoes.

509
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:47,800
It's a rocky surface.

510
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,840
Once you get off the walkway, there are rocky surfaces and my ankle would turn a little

511
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:52,840
bit.

512
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,240
I do have ankle issues, Achilles tendon issues.

513
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,440
So that did cause a problem later on in the day.

514
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,680
And then the next thing, headphones.

515
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,320
Oh yeah, I forgot.

516
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:07,640
The headphones, the headphones they gave us for those radios were trash.

517
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,840
They were like Dollar Tree headphones.

518
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:15,000
I wish I would have brought, I wish I would have knew because one side didn't work or

519
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,120
it'll go out and it's all scratchy.

520
00:24:18,120 --> 00:24:19,400
I wish I had better headphones.

521
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,380
That would have been a better experience for the guided tour.

522
00:24:22,380 --> 00:24:29,480
I would have even preferred to bring the earphones that I save, the ones you get from your flights.

523
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:30,480
Those were better.

524
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,240
And cause they all use aux cord.

525
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:34,240
So yeah.

526
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:35,240
Yeah.

527
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,520
I would have brought better headphones if I would have knew that.

528
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,960
And then we just spoke about Malaga.

529
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,920
I just wish we would have spent the night.

530
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:49,520
Spent the night, went to the beach and gave the city a chance.

531
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:53,700
We had a family friend tell us, oh, there's nothing to see here.

532
00:24:53,700 --> 00:24:57,520
We should have do what we always do and just hang out.

533
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:58,520
Yeah.

534
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,560
You know it's different when you live in a place.

535
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,880
It's different than use your tourist eyes in your hometown.

536
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,160
Cause they see it before they see it all the time.

537
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,160
So it's like an everyday occurrence for them.

538
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,400
For us it was brand new.

539
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,240
So we missed out on that.

540
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:17,240
We're going back.

541
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:18,240
I'm claiming it.

542
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,280
We're going back soon.

543
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:26,120
So we're back in the car babe and we're headed to our final destination.

544
00:25:26,120 --> 00:25:27,640
The reason why we're in Spain.

545
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:31,120
Yeah, we are listening to my husband Derek.

546
00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:33,840
I want to go to Granada.

547
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:34,840
How close was Granada?

548
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:36,600
Granada was a two hour drive.

549
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,240
Sevilla was a two hour drive.

550
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,080
In the opposite direction or the same direction?

551
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:42,080
No, it's the opposite direction.

552
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:43,080
It was going north.

553
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,640
So we're going to go two hours in a different direction than where we're headed.

554
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,160
Don't act like we have not done it before.

555
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:48,160
I know.

556
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:49,160
Don't do it.

557
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,160
I'm just saying.

558
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:51,160
That's why I made my decision.

559
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:52,160
You weren't driving anyway.

560
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,120
I told you to take a nap.

561
00:25:54,120 --> 00:25:57,600
I just wanted to lay eyes on Alhambra.

562
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:58,720
That's all I wanted to do.

563
00:25:58,720 --> 00:25:59,720
Lay eyes on it.

564
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:00,720
That's okay.

565
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:01,720
We're going back.

566
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:02,720
We're going back.

567
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,040
That was also our first experience with getting gas.

568
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,040
Leaving Malaga.

569
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,040
We went up to the gas station.

570
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:09,040
Oh Lord.

571
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,040
You want to explain now?

572
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:11,040
I went to the gas station.

573
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,720
I think I gave the guy 30 euros.

574
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,840
I thought the gas hand was going to move, but I forgot.

575
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,200
It's in liters.

576
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:22,120
You forgot to mention the full service.

577
00:26:22,120 --> 00:26:23,120
Full service?

578
00:26:23,120 --> 00:26:24,120
Yeah.

579
00:26:24,120 --> 00:26:29,440
We went in and we drove into the full service gas station where they pump your gas and everything.

580
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:30,440
We didn't know what to do.

581
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:31,440
And we didn't know what to do.

582
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,400
I just told Derrick, you know what, let's just go find new places.

583
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:34,400
Let's just go.

584
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:35,880
You had these guys coming out to pump our gas.

585
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,160
We don't even know what type of gas to get.

586
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:39,440
So we just kept on going.

587
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:40,560
Like, no, we're not doing that.

588
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:44,720
We just found our own self-service gas station.

589
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:48,800
So yeah, we finally arrived to a gas station, self-service.

590
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,960
And I said, hey, put 30 on five.

591
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:58,140
The gas hand did not budge because they do liters, not gallons.

592
00:26:58,140 --> 00:27:05,120
So I thought I was getting 30 euros, 30 gallons, well, not 30 gallons, but $30 in gallons.

593
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:07,080
But I got liters.

594
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:08,080
Gas hand didn't budge.

595
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:09,080
Didn't budge.

596
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:16,240
So once again, those small little differences from the United States to Europe, liters versus

597
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:17,240
gallons.

598
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:22,200
Gas hand does not move with 30 euros in liters.

599
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,280
So lesson learned.

600
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:25,880
Lesson learned.

601
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,320
And then also, we filled that thing up.

602
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:33,080
When we turned that car into civilian, what we should have done, we should have did was

603
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,920
let the rental car people fill it up.

604
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:46,440
Because when you use your debit card in Spain, it holds 125 euros plus what you put in gas.

605
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:53,040
So I think we put 130 bucks in petrol in that car.

606
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:54,600
Then they held another $125.

607
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,360
It's a dollars or a euros?

608
00:27:57,360 --> 00:27:59,800
Euros, 125 euros.

609
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,320
And when I saw that on my bank statement, I almost lost my mind.

610
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,760
I thought someone had used my card after I left.

611
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,440
Oh yeah, I remember.

612
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,120
So I called the bank.

613
00:28:08,120 --> 00:28:09,880
I'm like, hey, someone used 100.

614
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,360
No, that's just the hold.

615
00:28:11,360 --> 00:28:15,360
Why do they hold so much?

616
00:28:15,360 --> 00:28:16,360
They don't hold that much here.

617
00:28:16,360 --> 00:28:19,360
They hold like what, 50 bucks?

618
00:28:19,360 --> 00:28:23,200
They held 125 euros.

619
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:27,320
So another call out there.

620
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:28,800
So we're off to Sevilla.

621
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:30,360
All right.

622
00:28:30,360 --> 00:28:34,640
We're in Sevilla for the big party.

623
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:35,640
Can't wait.

624
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:36,640
Until next time.

625
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:37,640
Next time, guys.

626
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:48,240
If you made it this far, you are the true champion.

627
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:52,560
You could have been anywhere, doing anything, but you instead chose to spend your time with

628
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:53,560
us.

629
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,840
And for that, we say thank you.

630
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:56,840
I'm Derek.

631
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:57,840
I'm Makyla.

632
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,120
Rate, like, and subscribe.

633
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,440
Do good, be good.

634
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:23,320
Until next time.
