    The guanches lived only in Tenerife. In El Hierro, bimbaches; in La Palma, benahoaritas; in La Gomera, gomeros; in Gran Canaria, tamaranes, and in Fuerteventura y Lanzarote, majos.

    La Gomera is excellent, in fact I know a hotel on the Island, which is amazing and is on the top of a cliff with great views. However they have a private beach down below, accessible only by private elevator, which, is a door camouflaged in a piece of rock. Total Bond style, that quietly drops to down to an amazing beach complete with a fab restaurant. First class cuisine, beautiful clean sandy beach, but only accessible by the hidden rock elevator and PIN. Only in La Gomera. Great vid mate!

    I live in Andalucía, and you make us want to go explore Canarias. It is much more beautiful than I actually thought

    I get the magic of my islands back when I see them through your eyes. Thank you very much, Freddie and Monika. You'll always be welcomed and loved over here.I would recommend you a trip to La Palma, la Isla Bonita, and watch the currently erupting volcano and El Hierro, very tiny and where the Time Meridian was stablished for the first time.

    • @FreddieDobbs

  • @Jean-de-lune
    @Jean-de-lune 2 роки тому +1

    Great Part 2 and filming as usual by Monika. Interesting to note that Columbus had a thing going for Dona Beatriz Bobadilla. There was a bit of a moment of comedy as you were going up the stairs of the tower and were describing a night on the tiles and returning after a few pints to visit his Bobadilla. Well I suppose there hd to be a bit of light relief before an unknown Atlantic crossing! Hotel absolutely superb. Breakfast superb. I understand the need for superlatives!

    Definitely a Fiat 127. So glad you liked La Gomera. It is stunning. Europe's best kept secret, alright. As I said before, we went in 2002. Also earlier that year, we went to Bali and did a couple of days on Lombok. No electricity then. Has it commercialised now?
    Now to have the rest of my lunch with the image of CC bob bob bobbing along with Bobadeer still in my mind.

    Fiat 127 they were sold as in U.K./IRL. My first car in 1979 was a red 3 door . Red was the best colour for them as you didn’t see the rust as much that way 😂 . Great video again Freddie & Monika. Also the rock at 15:25 I was there on a tour and apparently they’re volcanic plugs, the centre pieces from past eruptions which became exposed as the softer outer layers eroded away.

    • @FreddieDobbs
      @FreddieDobbs  2 роки тому +1

      I see an immaculate 127 in Gomera with rose tinted glasses and wonder where they’ve all gone!
      But of course this is where- they’ve all disintegrated away!😆

    Awesome channel. I’ve been following you about 6 or more months. Only stumbled on your channel because it was suggested on UA-cam as I have a Triumph Bonnieville too . You and Monica do a great job on filming and editing and also adding in the gear reviews as well facts about the area for tourists. Beautiful vids lately. Nice music choices too! Love the connection with old cars too! I’m in Canada , so we would never see those type of cars on the roads here as daily drivers, yet I’m in my mid 50,s and I remember many of them as they came on the market. Look forward to your future work! 😎👍👍

    Been watching your vlogs, most of the U.K. ones and I think all the Canary Island ones and enjoyed every one even though the commentary is not always accurate. As a frequent visitor to the Canaries (25 times in all but not visited El Hierro) I like to see places you visit as we have visited as we always hire a car and explore off the touristy track. Also I have the same interest as you when I come across an old rare or classic car or motorcycle, love your enthusiasm, I have a 1972 Honda CB450 K5 in show condition and yes I do ride it but only in summer. Monika does a great job as well, thanks both.

    Cheer's Freddie & Monica, Another very nice video from a stunningly beautiful & historic sight. I could say many thing's, but the number one thing that hit me in this & a few other of your vid's is how classy Monica always dresses. She remind's me of how properly dressed our society used to be 50-60yrs. ago. None of this provocative attire that many(not all) women wear today. I know some people will be offended by my opinion, but @ 70 y.o. I don't care. It is what it is so deal with it. Hat's off to you Monica & thank you!!!! I know this might be an unusual comment, but some thing's need to be said & complimented upon. Your a very lucky man Freddie Dobbs. That said ; I think your great too!!! Have a beautiful day; from the other side of the pond. Illinois,USA

    Thank you Freddie and Monika for all the hard work you put in compiling these vlogs.Really enjoying them! Much appreciated.
    One for Monika. If you're looking for backing tracks to go with your videos, may I suggest you take a listen to Matt Large - Autumn in Prague (yes, I realise you're in Tenerife, and it's not autumn), but I think it suits riding on the twisty mountain roads, or evening rides through the towns. See what you think?

    Hello again Freddie / Monica.
    Indeed, that house that you had behind you at the end of the video is the Casa de La Aduana in La Gomera. Too bad you couldn't get into it; since you had seen the well, from where it is said that Columbus supplied himself with water for his long journey.
    I sincerely think that if you have had in La Gomera, that sensation of a virgin island to tourism. When you visit the island of El Hierro, you will realize that this is truly the most virgin island in this province. Along with La Graciosa (which belongs to the other province and that one has no roads). 😉
    Freddie, I see that you are a fan of the history of the Canary Islands, so I recommend you again, that you visit the Museum of Science and Nature of Tenerife, so that you can contemplate authentic Guanche mummies.
    Keep enjoying the islands.

    • @FreddieDobbs
      @FreddieDobbs  2 роки тому

      Thanks for confirming, Ignacio🙂
      I was hoping El Hierro may be an even more unspoilt version of La Gomera, so I’m glad you’ve confirmed it- we will visit.
      Muchos gracias Ignacio!

    Hey Freddie, that little buzzy electronic sound at 10:00-10:04 is your cell phone frequencies being picked up by the camera or your mic. I'm guessing it's in your pocket close by. I heard it in another video too. Obviously it's no big deal, but if you've noticed it and you want to stop it, just put the phone in airplane mode when recording. I work with audio equipment and this sound has bitten me many times!

    This is just awesome to watch! Really enjoy your vlogs guys😍 For how long you're going to be in Tenerife and would be nice to explain how is life there compared with the Uk?

    Interesting video. I am going to stay there for the second time this summer. I don’t know if you realise that the island is not called lagamera, but La Gomera?

    yeah, Fiat 127, my uncle had the 3 door with a 1050cc, and what a great raspy exhaust note it had, we had the van version later on, the Fiorino, had a gear shift like stirring porridge

    Nice video Freddie, I have the same TCX boots as you,if you clean them and cover them in olive oil,the oil soaks in and replenishes the leather a treat..

    Thanks for the informative videos. I’m planning on staying on La Gomera for a few weeks and work from a laptop, did you encounter any issues regarding to Wifi and connections overall?

    Said it before, and I'll say it again.... Monika, you have a director's eye and a cinematographer's skill for composition and colour. Freddie, you have apparently unbounded enthusiasm and such a likeable demeanour. Why isn't the Discovery channel begging you both to do a series? BUT... Please clean your bike and lube your chain!!!!!
