Tapas. Rioja Wine Country. Logroño. First Time in SPAIN Travel VLOG 🇪🇸 PART 1

The moment when you said is looks like New Orleans it was fun cuz all the people think that the buildings in New Orleans are French, but New Orleans was burn and all the buildings there are Spanish xDD

[@sierralovesdogs]

Yes!!! I totally thought New Orleans was French! But I learned it was Spanish!

[@themechanictangerine]

Was it burned? I think I read that a hurricane destroyed the wood buildings and the Spanish governor ordered the city to be rebuilt with brick and mortar

Es lo mismo en el resto de lo que hoy día es Estados Unidos. Salvo la costa Este todo el resto formaba parte del Vireynato de Nueva España, junto a lo que hoy día es Méjico. Sin embargo Hollywood hizo una película protagonizada por Fred McMurray y Charlton Heston donde "se cuenta" que los primero exploradores del medio oeste, la cuenca del rio Missisipi, fueron Lewis y Clark...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Seguís sin comprender que en España hay retretes que tienen cientos de años más que la más vieja de vuestras catedrales.....

Of course it reminds you the streets of New Orleans. New Orleans was a part of the Hispanic Monarchy. It belonged to the Captaincy of Cuba and to the Viceroyalty of New Spain. (1763/1803) Spain left its mark specially on architecture. The balconies on its facades are essentially spanish.

[@sierralovesdogs]

@@isabelrodriguez6717 YESSSSS!!! I meant to look this up and so appreciate your response because it had me so curious! We are always told New Orleans is French!!! Thank you so much! Love learning little tidbits like this!

Those colored trash bins are for recycling different kinds of waste. The green dome-like ones are for glass bottles and jars, blue is for paper and cardboard, yellow for plastic and metal containers (bottles, cans, etc.), brown is organic and the other one is for the rest of the waste (non-recyclable). Recycling works quite well, except for plastics, I'd say.

[@sierralovesdogs]

Makes so much sense!

[@KraM881]

The fact that you think the streets are empty because it's siesta time, is both funny and sad😅😅😅 siesta is just like a quick nap after lunch, 10-15 minutes and you are up again, ready for whatever comes next. But only SOME people does siesta. Most of the people don't get lunch at home, just like any other country😅😅😅 Loved the video and your energy!! Hope you had fun in Spain, next time come to Penedès, it's the Cava region, you'd love it😊😊

@@sierralovesdogs Ham (jamón) was carried around, and eaten in public as a sign by Christians to "prove" they were "Old Christians" and not "conversos" or Christians of Jewish origins, nor, much less, crypto Jews or crypto Muslims. This was in the 15th, 16th centuries during the Inquisition. The exhibition of pig legs is a survival of this social and ethnic prejudice.

Logroño isn't a bad place to start in a spanish trip, but Haro should probably be the next logical step to get into the wine culture of La Rioja. I used to loves blackberrys (moras) when I was a child, but only the ones which came from a zarza (as the ones you pick there). 13:05 The cabra, which is also the name for the goat in spanish, is a fish which tastes like shrimps. There aren't cobras in Spain, and we don't eat snake meat.

I liked seeing the bell that was on the label in this one. And the place to dump the wine in the floor. 😅
