Great Video. I'm planning a trip to Ainsa but I'm wondering if anyone speaks English in this Region. Do the locals speak Spanish of Castillian?

Hi guys, great video. Would you say a 74 year old would do ok walking around those trails and maybe checking out the mine? We’re going to Ronda next month but we’re taking my in laws and I don’t want to start walking around if it’s too much to handle for them. How long did it take you to walk around Ronda? Or what you show of Ronda in the video? Thanks!
@ColleenAndGary
@ColleenAndGary 3 ай бұрын
We were in Ronda in September. Walking around the town and on the walls is not difficult. However, most parts of the walk on top of the walls do not have safety rails. The trail to the gorge is not long but is very steep and there is no shade. We are in our early sixties and had no problems (except sweating!). It took about 10 minutes to descend and 20 minutes to return. Slow and steady! Of course, everyone is different. Enjoy your time in Ronda and thanks for watching.

February is a busy month here, but the Super Bowl won't make it any busier. Everybody's here for the weather! But, it's fun to hit the bars and watch the big game. Last year the Schooner Wharf Bar had a big super bowl party......very funky classic KW kind of place on the harbor. Same goes for the Green Parrot (but not on the water). For a more sports bar experience try Jack Flats. And Shots & Giggles or Pickles Pub are good too. What's great about KW is you can easily walk to all these bars in less than 10 minutes, beverage in hand.

We lived at MM15.5 from 1989-2007. Smather's was "made" by importing Bahamian sand in 1961. Prior to that S. Roosevelt simply had a seawall for the length of it just like you still see when leaving KW via S Roosevelt. Higgs Beach was also "created," but in 1955.

Love everything about this video: the hosts, the scenery, the music! It's as if you'd made a souvenir video just for me. If Key West weren't already my favorite place to be, I'd be on my way now! You left out the lower Duval nightlife craziness, for which I'm glad. Your vid is totally G-rated, though parts of Key West generally are not. Though for completeness' sake, you might consider a nightlife video with the same "just a glimpse" touch - about all I could stand! And what I personally would like better, a "Key West Tidbits" video with snippets of memories - either yours, or those of people you've met, or meet. fwiw. Thanks!

Any that y'all could recommend?
