- disaster strikes again on our motorhome trip to Spain - Is Spain off??
We cant believe it this week when it looks like our delayed start to our trip, is delayed even more!
Are we even supposed to go to Spain or is the universe tryingh to tell us something.
Before all that though we take an explore around the Pilgrim start point of the Camino De Santiago
We are Corrin and Paul and we travel 9 months of the year in Europe and the UK, with our two brilliant travel hounds, Pippa Poodle and Dolly Doodle
Great video, hope you do eventually make it down to Spain. Beautiful scenic village you visited. Hope Dolly be on the mend soon. Pizza looked yummy!! Take care xx ❤🏴🐶🏴
🥰🐩🐾🐾Thankyou, it was a beautiful village , we are hoping for a positive outcome at this afternoons vet visit in Dax so we can finally hit the road to Spain 🇪🇸☀️🥰 the pizza tasted better than it looked 🙂😂
Sorry I had to laugh looking at Dolly sulking. It really made me chuckle..😂 Colleen… x
🤭🐩🐩🐾🐾🥰she is a comedy dog for sure 😂 she is so brave, but does love a sulk 😂
Vets in Spain are excellent. Highly recommend. Xx
🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾Thankyou , much appreciated, we hope to be heading off today after a revisit this afternoon in Dax 🥰❤️🇫🇷🇪🇸
Hope Dolly is still improving x
Thanks for watching, we will know more tomorrow
Bugger, darn dog, not healing. I'm glad you are enjoying France and learning more about the country. It is a positive 😊. Those people and their darn dog and what it has cost you in money, hours, and plans changed.
🇫🇷❤️it’s a silver lining in the cloud , some of the places we have been to are stunning, the history and architecture is so interesting, so not all bad xx Dolly is doing better, hoping for a positive update tomorrow xx
Recently found your channel & loving it! The way you present your content is so watchable. I too saw Liam & Janine complete the pilgrimage - very plucky coup le. My daughter has a Cavapoo, Darcey, who seems to be more poo than cava - she is identical to Dolly! Hope the wound continues to heal & safe onward travels, wherever that may be!
🥰❤️🐩🐾🐾aww Thankyou so much ! A cavapoo sounds adorable , but more poodle than cava is like Dolly , more poodle than Labrador , nice to hear she has a doppelgänger 🐩🐾😁 she continues to get better with one setback yesterday, Dolly sends love to Darcey x 🥰 and yes we saw that vlog and thought wow, that’s a long trip, we only made the hill up to the citadel 😂
We are really enjoying your vlogs in freezing Canada. We are unable to go to Spain ourselves this year so we are travelling along with you! Thank you 🤗🇨🇦
Aww Thankyou ! So nice to have you with us 🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾 tonight’s vlog reveals our progress and where we are now 🙂🙂🥰🇪🇸☀️
Hope Dolly recovers bless her. Loving the Pizza machine 😂
Dolly is luckily back to her old self 💖🐾🐩 so glad to have put that event behind us 😢 the pizza was surprisingly delicious ! 🙂
I love that place. I was there in May on a motorcycle holiday, staying on a campsite near Biaritz. I even had a walk around the campsite/aire that you were on and took a note of it for future trips.
The pilgrims walk looks tough. Even the first day from St Pied de Port is straight up into the mountains.
When you get to Spain you might enjoy Salamanca. A large university city in northern Spain. I only spent one night there in September, but I really liked it, very vibrant. No idea what it is like in January. You can go to Spain and call in at the vet on the way back. Alternatively, they do have vets here in Spain.
Good morning ! Thanks so much for all your comments and recommendation, really appreciated, we are certainly looking to start heading into Spain , the the pilgrims walk does look tough doesn’t it ! We managed a walk up the citadel hill ! Must have been amazing on a motorcycle in May 🙂 safe travels for 2024 ❤️🥰
When we had a problem with our dog a few years ago we used an inflatable collar, like a donut, it stilll stops them from biting the wound but he seemed a lot happier with it as they can still see everything around better.
🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾 good morning, we did ask the vet at the time but they didn’t have one, typically we have some at home which will be added to our first aid kit ! Thanks so much for commenting, much appreciated 🐩🐩🐾🐾❤️
There is a you tube channel called "those Happy days" where they actually walked the pilgrimage which was a quite interesting watch.. lovely couple with a lot more guts than me
❤️🥰Thankyou so much , really appreciate your kind words and support, yes those happy days are a great couple and were brave on tackling the pilgrimage , the hill was enough for us 😂
Good luck getting to Spain 🤞. Nice camping car aire by the beach in Biarritz
🐩🐩🐾🐾🥰 Thankyou , really looking forward to Spain , may well be in Biarritz , hopefully good news tomorrow ❤️
Best you look after the dog Spain isn't going anywhere soon, if you end up staying in France you have lots of choice in that area, I love a bit of food from a vending machine, money in food out, no cooking or washing up , lovely 😂😂, another enjoyable vlog keep them coming 👍 0:00
🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾🇫🇷oh yes, the pizza tasted so much better than it looked 🙂 and France really does have a lot to offer in this region… appointment this afternoon with Dolly and then decision time 🥰 thanks again ❤️
Lovely place folks and very informative. The aire looked lovely, too. Hope Dolly gets well soon. ❤
🥰🐩🐾Thankyou Paul , she’s doing ok, a little setback yesterday, so hoping for good news tomorrow .. the sure was really nice 🙂
I’m pleased to of found your vlogs some weeks ago and enjoy the content immensely. The history of the places along with the scenery you capture and present amazingly well. Thanks for sharing and hopefully better news re the dog .
❤️🥰Thankyou so much for your lovely comments , really appreciated xx 🥰
They say never work with children and animals as they can spoil your plans……NEVER!!!!! they are a part of your family and we do what ever we can to help them. Look what you have seen so far, things that you would have never seen as you would have just driven through. Spain can wait it will still be there. Big hugs for you all xx
Aww thanks Tracy , couldn’t agree more 🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾 luckily we stayed local and when the complication arose the vets knew the history and treatment and dealt with it so well xx 🥰❤️🐩🐩🐾🐾
Hope your both ok and Dolly is behaving herself 🤣🤣 enjoying the vlogs. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us xx
Hi Julie , all is going much better and thanks for your kind words , tonight’s vlog will show where we managed to get to ! 🌞🇪🇸 xx
Well you really are going through it on this trip aren't you, poor Dolly, poor all of you. Fingers crossed everything will turn out right in the end, hopefully you do get to Spain, I'm sure you will and it'll be great, take care and stay safe
Aww thanks very much, it’s looking much better , we can now look at our options and see where we can get to and enjoy with the time we have left ! 🐩🐩🐾🐾🌞 thanks so much 🥰
Guys, I'm sure you will, but please keep all receipts and name and address of vets for the dogs treatment, even when not connected to this dreadful injury. Even for worming tablets en route back to UK. I won't name the insurer but we once had to contact each vet we had used in tiny French / Spanish villages, over a number of years, to provide a complete medical history for our dog for an (unconnected with travel) insurance claim in the UK. Hope you have a great trip and the injury heals well.
❤️hi Paul, great advice Thankyou , the vet we have been with are amazing, every receipt is hard copy and pdf copy via email , we are with Tesco , so hope it wasn’t these you had an issue with ? They have always been pretty good with us .. but we will update as we go ! 🙂🐩🐩🐾🐾 Thanks for your comments, very much appreciated ❤️
I have little Papillons x3 they are small enough for the cat blow up neck pillows which are so much nicer than the cones of shame to wear. I am not sure that they make them for larger dogs though. Thank you for sharing. My Hazel snores all the time too. 🙄
Hi Sally 😂 yes if Hazel is like Pippa it doesn’t half rumble the van 😂 , the vets only had the cone of shame and Dolly is really good at wearing one , but as we now realise , good at getting one off 😥 … and 3 Papillons ! Wow I bet that’s fun , Lovely dogs xx 🐾🐾🐩🐩🥰
UA-camrs happy days did this pilgrimage it was good nice to see Dolly is okay
Ol
🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾Thankyou ! Yes saw their vlog, very interesting and braver than us , we managed the hill to the citadel ! 😂🥰
Glad you enjoyed Pied du Pont or whatever its name is. Its well worth visiting. Can I just say as a wheelchair user cobbles are crap. We did the lower town along by the river and the bridge and little shops. Any hilly bits forget. As for the rest of your hols. Spain is expecting rain so check the weather for France. If you do come then this may interest you. Los Pueblos mas bonitos de Espana. This translates to The Most Beautiful Villages of Spain. We have done lots and they are really good. The site is in Spanish but it lists the names and has a map so you can see where they are. They are all across Spain. Good luck and take care. And Dolly for goodness sake behave and keep that collar on darling.
❤️🥰Thankyou so much for the comments and recommendations, yes those cobbles although beautiful , the pavement was stepped on each side, so quite restrictive 😥 so glad you experienced some of the city as it’s beautiful 🥰 we’ve noted your recommendation for Spain and have had a word with Dolly 🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾🙂
So nice surprise to see you in SJPD!! Absolutely beautiful to be there where so many emotions start to arrise in pilgrims heart. I walk 7 caminos, not just the Frances, but also in del Norte and others in the mountains of Picos del Europa and the Primitivo. Always emotional for me to see some of this places where I walk. Thank you! ❤️ Buen Camino.
🥰❤️🇫🇷🇪🇸Thankyou, it’s such a lovely place to visit, so much scenery, history and architecture, so glad we visited xx 🥰🐩🐾
Lovely to hear your take on this area, glad to learn more of the history and the pilgrimage. Pizza and cakes looked yummy. Hope it’s good news for Dolly tomorrow 👍
Aww thanks Jane, it was a lovely area , the pizza till was the last option ! But to be fair it was ok 🙂 and yes, hope we can move on a little more tomorrow, as ever , Thankyou so much 🥰🐩🐩🐾
Interesting to see SJPP in the quiet of winter. I was there last May and it was rammed with walkers starting their Camino. I waited in a long, long queue outside that passport office to get my ‘credencial’. Beautiful start to an amazing walk.
🥰it was very quiet and allowed us to wander freely and appreciate the history and architecture, a beautiful place ! How long does it take on average to do the walk ? I bet it was amazing 🥰
Dolly obviously doesn’t like warm weather, and France is nice this year xx
Haha , yes she is sending a message for sure 🐩🐩🐾🐾🇫🇷 x
Great vlog 😊. There are so many great towns and villages just like Saint Jean Pied de Pont in the french Pays Basque. One of our favourites, on the coast is Saint Jean de Luz. All the villages around La Rhune ( the mountain) are gorgeous. You can walk up the mountain or take le petit train de la Rhune to the top. It's possible that it doesn't run in the winter months though. The architecture in the Pays Basque is identical everywhere and makes it so special 😊.
Hi Tanya ! 🥰 Thankyou , and Thankyou so much for the recommendation, it really is a beautiful area , the history and architecture is amazing ❤️❤️🐩🐾 we shall definitely take a look xx
Hi both, fantastic vlog as always ❤ Those pizzas were far nicer looking than we expected 😋 Loved the walk through town, baguette vending machine and great park up 😍 Poor Dolly, she was so cute when sulking and Pippas snoring made us laugh 🤣 Hope it's good news on Monday but no matter what happens we know you'll make the best of it x Looking forward to Tuesdays update lots of love Julia and Gary ❤️
Hi Guys ! Lovely to hear from you , hope you are enjoying the house sit ! 🙂 yes hopefully tomorrow will bring a bit better news xx 🥰❤️🐩🐩🐾 and what a lovely town we visited 🙂
Not to worry Redders's , if you don't get here , I'll keep you updated on what you're missing weatherwise . Great vlog we're at Santa Susanna north of Barcelona . Like you , warm with cool spots but we're moving south on Tuesday . Take care , love from the Redders's .
Evening Redders ! 😂❤️ appreciate the updates , we are hoping for better news tomorrow so we can make moves towards Spain 🇪🇸 ☀️ keep us posted 👍👌🙂Redders out 🤣
You will have to go to Ronda in Spain if you have time you will love it
❤️Thankyou , really appreciate the recommendation 👌
Hondarribia is also very beautiful.
Thankyou for the recommendation, very much appreciated xx 🥰❤️🐩🐾
I do hope you get to Spain after all that's happened. If you haven't got much time head to Hondarribia just over the french border in Spain. You'll love it it's the Spanish pays Basque, a beautiful old town, beautiful beach and lots of lovely walks. We just spent 4days there and noticed there's a carpark overlooking the beach which is free in winter and there were about 5 motorhomes that were there everyday soo I assume they'd stayed all night. Looked but didn't see any no overnight parking signs. Check out tapas opening hours and restaurant opening hours, different again from France 😂. We had friends round today for Galette de Roi, the person who gets the feve becomes the king then has to choose their Queen for the day. Sometimes this is done under the table 😮, the galette is often accompanied by cider or on special occasions champagne. They're eaten throughout January but I think the first Sunday after Christmas day is the special day. The tradition is all over France and there's the galette frangipane that you had but there's also a galette briochée . Our local Pâtisserie has both. Glad you enjoyed yours 😊
🥰❤️wow, so much information you’ve so kindly shared, amazing , Thankyou so very much ! It’s lovely to hear of the traditions and celebrations, we did really enjoy the Galette ❤️ we have noted the town you have suggested , we love tapas , so it would certainly be a much needed treat for us to get there ☀️🇪🇸 once again , Thankyou for taking the time to share this wonderful information xx
H i Corrin & Paul, we love your video as always. Sorry to hear about Dolly's setback, hope she heals well now. It was lovely to see you enjoying the Couronne cakes. They always appear in the shops just after Christmas. They are to mark the Epiphany, the time when the 3 kings arrived at the stable to see the baby Jesus, hence the crown. The French children love these . The bread version, which is big, usually has a little ornament in it and the kids compete to see who gets it in their portion. You have to watch the little ones or they can choke on it. The pastry ones like you had are called a gallette and can have either an almond or apple filling. We hope everything goes well now , Love and Best Wishes to you both & Dolly and Pippa. From Jo and Tony.
Hi Guys ! Really appreciate your comments, so interesting, the little cakes are really nice aren’t they ! We love the almond filling.. 🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾 Dolly has recovered so well , so we can now assess our plans going forward 🥰🥰 as ever , thanks so much for your support and comments 🙂
Hello lovelies 🥰 st Pied du port or whatever it’s called is I’m sure, there Those Happy Days started their pilgrimidge and Liam made it all the way but Janine didn’t she was plagued by blisters and had to stop half way through. It’s a good watch 😃 the place looked lovely and so did the pizza’s - bless Dolly hanging her head in shame 😢 at least she got a pink cone 😂 hope you do eventually get to Spain but I’m sure in true Reds style if you don’t, you will make the best of it 🥰❤️ great video and loved Freddy frogs drone shots 😍 xxx
Hi Guys ! ❤️❤️ yes Kermit is doing some great work , even comes back when called 🐸 🤣 we did see the vlog with Liam and Janine , we were so inspired we made it all the way up the hill to the citadel 😂😂 thanks for watching and commenting as ever , much love ❤️ x
Great to see you’ve been overwhelmed 😂
Lots of trees see ! 🤭😂
Non hay NADA There is nothing. Here in Spain weather today 24c nice and warm but freezing during night
Ahhhhh, oh you have no idea how much we wish we were there!
It was hand written all over the signs, I wonder what they mean by it?
Great vlog. I really hope this trips luck improves and you get some Spanish sunshine. You all really deserve it. Your like a breath of fresh air both. So positive🙌 best wishes. Fred Karen and Fetz the Cockapoo
🥰❤️🐩🐩🐾🐾aww Thankyou so much , really appreciated, such lovely comments 🙂🇪🇸☀️
Hi thank you for your reply, I’ll look into getting the adapters
Sorry I didn’t make myself clear the card is Resolute / Revoulte do think I would need to get one? Or do our normal cards work well enough,We are coming over in March for a tour. Thank you again and keep up your brilliant vlogs
We would definitely recommend a revolut card , it’s widely accepted and you can easily manage the amount and currency on it , you can pre load , or load up within seconds, the link will have the details .., here’s a link 👍🙂 safe travels ahead x revolut.com/referral/?referral-code=corrin5keh!JAN1-24-VR-GB
Just for some added information for anyone taking your dogs away, there are vets around us here in Hampshire who offer basic first aid for anyone travelling with a dog, or owning a working dog. Although your awful experience with poor Dolly was way out of what they teach, it’s well worth it for basic first aid. As I think I said before, we have always travelled on boats, and having an extensive first aid kit for ourselves and the dogs has been really important. Less so in a van as you can drive to the vet of course. Wishing you an easier onward journey.
🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾thanks so much for commenting and sharing this valuable information, it really is so helpful 🥰🐩🐾❤️
Loving your vlogs, we enjoy your walks round various towns etc. Quick question ref the camping cars aires, as I noted you said about getting your chairs out to enjoy the sun. Is it generally ok to spread out outside the van on their sites? Thinking of using them in July but don't want to be confined to the mh if you are parking rather than camping ? Will be our first french trip with the mh, so im probably over thinking it.
Hi Debbie ! ❤️ these are paid aires which have allocated spaces for each van, clearly marked out, it’s totally acceptable to get your tables and chairs out / awning etc as long as you stay within your boundary , some paid aires won’t have the space, but the ones we have been on all have 🙂there are lots of free aires and it’s on these the spaces are tighter and it’s frowned upon if people get tables and chairs out , as inevitably it’ll mean using a second space to do so … some do it and spoil it for others , some free park ups are car parks… hope that helps and thanks so much for watching and commenting, much appreciated xx
Loved that picture of Dolly sulking and nice to see you've got a dog who snores too. 😂 Do they bark in their sleep ?
Oh yes , we have the barking, running and tail wags 🐩🐾🐾😂
Biarritz is super, good choice. Pretty busy and pretty expensive but worth it 😊
❤️Thankyou , yes Biarritz is on our schedule , it does sound really nice 🙂 we were meant to go on Saturday, but needed to go back to the vets 🥲 , hopefully tomorrow will bring better news ❤️
TBH your not in a bad area. When Dolly is signed off, head over to San Sebastion. Its one of our favourite places in Spain. We park at the University and walk into the old town. Wonderful food and drink everywhere. A real treat. The whole Basque Region is a joy, so dependent on time etc, the area is your plaything, but it's not hot 😢. Also not sure if you are travelling back via Santander or Bilboa, both interesting places but may not fit in your timetable. Pamplona is doable but tbh not that interesting outside the tourist season. Decisions,decisions!! Have fun anyway
Hi Neil ! We are thoroughly enjoying the basque region and we have taken a note of your recommendations, really appreciated , we do love the walks into town , where it has history and architecture, our sort of place 🙂 once again, Thankyou and much appreciated ❤️☀️🇪🇸
Hello, Hope Dolly is doing well
Can you please let us know where you got your tap adapter kit and should we get prepaid card ? Thanks for any help 👍
Hi ! Thanks for asking 🙂 we got the adapter kit for the taps in a French Diy store , but I would guess Amazon would definitely have them, I’ll have a look and add a link 👍 ref the card .., do you mean the camping card , you can buy them at the machines or via web and have it delivered , you’ll need credit to get in, but you can add this as you buy it at the machine or online 🙂 if you look up three quarter inch tap adapter hose , this will do it ! .. and Dolly is so much better Thankyou xx 🥰
Perhaps you can just go on to Spain and use the vets there. We found the vet in Denia last year really lovely and I’m sure any vet would be able to help, especially if you get a copy of the notes to take with you??
We had thought of this, but the wound was complicated and unfortunately didn’t heal in the top section as expected , which needed further treatment , the vet is amazing but was very firm in a request to see Dolly again , which now we fully appreciate , thanks so much for commenting, we hope to be able to travel tomorrow after another visit 🥰🐩🐩🐾
brill video can you tell me what motorhome you have looks very nice
Thankyou 🙂 ❤️ it’s a Dethleffs globe bus i5 2011 compact A class 🥰
Absolutely love your trip to Spain so much information on them but is reds six foot plus or the doors to the house small following you all the way take care
🤣Hi Simon ! Thankyou for following us 🥰 Redders is just under 6 foot after a little age shrinkage 🤣 but the doors are a bit smaller and a lot older 🤣
Beautiful place. Shame about your pooch. Hopefully thats the last of your troubles 🤞👍.
🥰🇪🇸☀️we have moved on thankfully and our most recent vlog finally shares some good news x
Hi, we have been watching for a while but the video is really choppy lacking stabilisation. Is this the Sony? 👍
Good morning ! ❤️ yes , you are spot on , we did mention on the vlog we were having issues , it’s a great camera but we are struggling with it , appreciate the feedback, it really helps and we will certainly address it 👍❤️
Maybe you are trying to push water uphill? The days of wandering free around Europe may be over!
Good morning ! We got to Spain and have spent the last 2 weeks off grid ! Wandering free , it’s amazing ❤️🇪🇸 the water is definitely downhill , the only bump being Schengen 😥👍
Have you thought about asking the French vet about having the stitches removed once you get to Spain by a Spanish vet. I’ve had to get my dog treated by a Spanish vet in Burgos and couldn’t fault the quality of the treatment and care given.
🥰we had thought about this , but we were asked to stay local due to the complicated wound , luckily we did, it hadn’t repaired itself at the uppermost point, revisit and re staple all part of the payments and insurance , hopefully tomorrow will be better news 🐩🐩🐾🐾🥰
Hi,can't understand why you haven't carried on to Spain,the vets here could have sorted Dolly out no problem 😊re the cobbled road at the beginning of the video its probably a bit like Triggers broom!😂😂😂😂😂
Hi David, we did plan going on into Spain, but the vet was very firm in staying local until stitches out as it was a complicated wound and repair , we are glad we did as the top section hadn’t healed as expected and needed further treatment , all under the same vet / claim … ❤️🥰🐩🐩🐾🐾 Dogs first, Spain second, hopefully be there soon 👍👍❤️ thanks again, and yes triggers broom 😂
THINK THOSE HAPPY DAYS VLOG DID THAT WALK IN 2023
Yes they did, great couple 🙂 thanks for watching 🥰much appreciated x
Why hang around any vet will remove stitches.
❤️thanks, we were asked to stay local due to the complicated injury, which we were glad we did as the wound was not healing as expected, hence a urgent revisit for staples and assessment , all under one vet and insurance , along with opening up a little , we will hopefully have better news tomorrow 🐩🐩🐾🐾🙂
Really love your content but the filters are ruining the scenery way way too bright. Faces are too blurred and casper like. Dont want to sound harsh but the filters are too much.
Thanks , will have a look at the settings , we don’t use filters , we are a bit pasty tho ! 😂
There is a you tube channel called "those Happy days" where they actually walked the pilgrimage which was a quite interesting watch.. lovely couple with a lot more guts than me
Hi Kevin and Andrea ! Thanks so much , really appreciate the super thanks, so kind 🙂 we did watch the vlog with Liam and his wife, and wow, yes that was a challenge wasn’t it ! Braver than us too ! The hill to the citadel was more than enough 😂🥰❤️
