THE MOST STRESSFUL DRIVE OF MY LIFE!

This week is a rollercoaster in so many ways! The road to our first park up is as scary as a rollercoaster, but the views make it worthwhile. We leave the mountains early to get medical help for poor Harry. Luckily our final second stop in the middle of Spain is fabulous & free!

This is the real spain that so many people miss. Well done for giving it a go. The old stone built villages are something else. So glad you enjoyed it.

[@caravaningincarathevan467]

You brought the good weather home with you. Xx

[@thejohnosontour]

love the vlogs wow that was epic in a 9 meter motorhome good skills tbh

[@johnbarnes9270]

Hey Lynds. Try the schawse sachet for paella it’s really very good. Enjoy your trip. Travel Safe. Regards John

[@maureenlowther7621]

I am surprised Harry went in the pool with an ear infection? Perhaps he should wear ear plugs to protect his ears.❤️❤️

[@daviscrt]

Wow that road was bad. So cool finding free camping in the middle of Spain. Thanks Don

[@user-zu6rf9bj1h]

Absolutely fantastic, thank you ❤

[@iancampbell7684]

Wow that road would have terrified me. Hope his ear is getting better and what a great video to watch when going away on holiday next week. Keep enjoying.

Great to join you all again, its been such a great holiday guys 👍

[@ronnykenny3965]

Hi Roaming Radfords, thank you once again for an amazing trip, so sad it's coming to an end but then again all good things must 😊. Love Spain een though I've never been there 🚍🚍

[@Scud_and_thesTig]

Love the driving challenges we get when transversing Spain and not just sticking to main roads 🤣👍💙❤️

[@gerlar67]

Another cracking vlog, I must admit, yeh find some brilliant stops, thanks for sharing. Safe travels back home.

[@Rolliemoho]

Hey guys, we live in Andalucia and just to let you know that if the swimming pools don't have the right levels of chlorine they can cause ear problems 👍🏼

[@Livingthedream2025]

We had a similar problem with our habitation lock! Sprayed lubricating oil into the lock mechanism, worked perfectly afterwards. Unbelievable difference 🤗

[@wanderinwilds]

Bloody hell that road it was stressful watching that never mind driving it 😳😱 well done 👍! Glad to hear Harry’s ears are on the mend 😊 and those Spanish Aires are fantastic! Your right in the UK they would be abused ! Great Vlog guys 😃 xxx

[@000caro555]

Another great video, sending love to Harry. X

[@robertrauter8459]

loved it........thanks

[@sallymurray2147]

Great video Steve and lyndsay you were so lucky to have stayed there for free it certainly was a nice place

[@markclement8972]

We have driven from the UK to MALAGA for since the 80's. The main road through Madrid was built with a lot of EU money so it used to take a bit longer. It was nice stopping in places that spoke no english as they were cheaper. We got by and it was a lot more fun.

[@paulcolman-ql7tk]

Great Videos, just one thing the tennis court does look suspiciously like a padel court, big in Spain, look it up, what a game!

[@geoffreyruncieman9503]

Lovely scenery 👍

[@MrCraigcur]

Want lovely video again mate . Plus great to see u play with your kids that something I miss as I lost my dad last year still greving lost off my dad. But otherwise keep videos coming

[@denisesmith7201]

Hope the antibiotics kick in quickly for Harry, ear pain is even worse than toothache. Fantastic vlog as always, great driving 👍👍👍👍

[@LindsayWright-bj3ek]

im guessing swimmers ear. yikes painful

[@toniprrp]

Madness!! Great vlog 😀

[@stephenclarke8876]

Another great video, I feel his pain as every time I used to go in a foreign pool I get an ear infection, I now wear ear plugs or cotton wool

[@jodymcwilliam1734]

Hi I suffer every time with ear infections when I swim. I use swim ear plugs really help and I use cl-ear ears for minor ear infections or swim ears which takes away excess water away. I hope it helps Eddie for next time x

[@tony-yp6qk]

Hope harry is ears are ok Hope everyone is ok Another great video has always Steve Lindsay Eddie Harry and George 👍

[@mistyeyes6710]

Hope Harry's ears much better, earache can just ruin your days, bless him 😢 that hill to that fabulous place was a little scary but well done for doing it & not giving up, food did see experience but it filled 5 of you so i guess it wasnt that bad plus everything free, wow that amazing, how do they keep the place going, awesome vlog guys 🍻🌹❤

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

good vidon the travels niceoplace cool vit thanks lee

[@user-ru3jh8om6s]

Another great video sorry Harry had a ear infection did he get it from all the pools will miss theres blogs when you get home.still plenty of videos follong you at home .

[@pamelaselway6669]

In land Spain is absolutely brilliant but i know what you mean about the roads running out. We would also try and turn round. You did really well. Surely if you withdraw money without a prepaid card and just say you want it in pounds it is the same. We never had a problem with Nationwide .

[@cabranakamaistro584]

We missed you in Morocco, happy hour ☺️

[@howarddavies6685]

One for the ‘what can we do now!?’ Situations when all else has failed. With your front wheel drive unit, you will get better traction is you reverse up the slope. Engine weight AND weight transfer (rear to front) will give you traction when normal driving fails. Limited situations obviously but may be just enough to get you out of the mire. Bon route mes amis! 👍

[@caveman3474]

It was scary watching it. Bloody hell take care

[@sccobyste]

Been there done that crapped myself feel your pain

[@motorhomehappiness1268]

Wow absolutely fantastic video guys and that road trip going up the mountain looked really scary and I hope Harry is getting better take care guys xx

So strange seeing American Fast Food joint like Carls Jr DEEP in Spain. Especially one like Carls that was started nearby my house.

[@stockman747]

You should come and do the wild Atlantic way in the west coast of Ireland sometime 2600km to you see narrow roads .

[@RoamingRadfords]

We did the Wild Atlantic Way in April 2017

[@aarondrake-worth]

Great video as always. Those stops look amazing!

[@viv-i-vangoesforth]

wowzers.....that road!!! Deffo makes you appreciate life when you know at any second you could loose it. Those 18 years motorhoming got you guys through, Steve. Your host sounded amazing. You just dont get that kind of hospitality in the UK sadly. Trust the Europeans to show the UK how it should be done and done brilliantly well. I'm so sad Harry had such a bad time with his ears but absolutely it was the right thing to do to get medical help. I'm glad all worked out. Again, that last parkup!!!! I mean, free parkup AND swimming pool. It makes me feel so angry about the lack of support for leisure vehicles in the UK. Its such short sightedness and local authorities in the UK should take note. If ever we regain free movement in the EU, or we rejoin, you are going to see all the overcharging sites and tourist areas that either over charge or dont support, crashing and burning as they get deserted for a proper welcome and service in Europe. I cant wait to be able to take Viv-i-van to Europe( maybe next year after my knee replacement) Best wishes and respect to the family- Kenny

[@lordbisnick3932]

We are in the middle of a six week trip through Spain and that village is what it is all about. Have had some hairy roads like you but thats part of it. Not looking forward to returning to the cold and damp in November. As always a great video.

[@EdithWeston]

10:47 Looks like Cetraxl Plus... best ear solution around... sadly now it's prescription only.

[@edwardsfamily6184]

For my ear infections I use a medication spray called otomize ear spray it's very quick and good to use 5ml bottle try to get some of that if ya can very good stuff

[@RoamingRadfords]

Is that over the counter, or do we need a prescription?

[@edwardsfamily6184]

@RoamingRadfords I got it off my doctor from a prescription ask a doc for it the medication works instantly I used it twice and my ear healed in 2 days very strong antibiotics are in it

That is one scary road 😮

[@GeoffAnthonyClinics]

Another great video. Just wondering if you had to choose between Monzo or Revolut which would you recommend? Thanks. ❤

[@RoamingRadfords]

Thanks Geoff. It’s tricky to choose, and it would depend on your personal needs, but this may help you decide www.monito.com/en/wiki/monzo-vs-revolut. That said, we have both and I’ve had the Monzo work when the Revolut didn’t a couple of times, so I’m slightly favouring Monzo for this reason

[@GeoffAnthonyClinics]

Thanks so much. God bless ya all. 👍😀☘️

[@shaunhewitt]

Definitely wouldn't get that in the UK you can't even park in a lay-by anymore 😅

[@grahambrown8123]

A friendly dive master advised me to always wash out my ears after swimming anywhere. In hot climates the sea is often full of plankton and if a swimming pool isnt dosed correctly can be full of bacteria. His advice has kept me free of ear infections. I simply put an unopened bottle of water somewhere where it will get warm (more pleasant than when its cold) and thoroughly wash out each ear. Otomize can be bought online in UK after completing an ear infection consultation.

[@griswald7156]

Ear wax protects your ears dosent it ?

[@grahambrown-theoffsitecons6345]

@@griswald7156 Definitately but water trapped in the ear with bacteria or plankton will cause an infection quickly. Washing out with warm sterile water doesn't remove the ear wax but does displace the dodgy water leaving the ear canal a lot cleaner.

Hi guys, I'm enjoying your videos, but here's a random question what editing program do you use and ever wondered to do a tutorial on video editing?

[@RoamingRadfords]

Thanks Barry. As this is a Motorhome travel channel a video on editing wouldn’t work with the audience we’ve built up, however I did do one on our other Steve & Lynds channel that you might find interesting. I show some of the behind the scenes editing in Final Cut Pro that I use to edit the videos and the process we go through in making and editing a video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZrLmIVpZdyZasU
