    It is very sad to see what's happening in Valencia as of the publishing of this video. I even thought about postponing it, but this has been scheduled for many days now. I just hope the video helps illustrate the beauty and rich culture of Valencia.

    We spent about 15 days total in Barcelona before and after a Mediterranean cruise. So much to see and and we did not get to see all of it. Your trip has inspired us to visit the other parts of Spain. So sad about the flooding. Valencia looks to be another beautiful city.

    Looks like you had a (very) little foretaste of what was to come in Valencia.
    A great series, Toledo, Cordoba and Ronda episodes really captured the essence and history of Spain.

    The Valencia filter on the instagram app was one of my favorites. I thought it might be named after Valencia street in San Francisco. But then I watched Traveling Robert in Valencia, Spain and saw the photogenic rainy weather and glowing sky there.

    So sad to see the flooding in Valencia. The video was spectacular. I love the plazas and the intricate detail on the buildings. You mentioned the River had been diverted from the area you visited so does that mean that the area that flooded was not the area in the video.

    I think the word you are looking for dialects is regionalisms instead. It is like in the English language someone says trousers in the UK, everyone else says pants or slacks, or how it is spelled like behaviour, centre in the UK. In the US we say behavior, center.

    Here's a question Robert. Does the word gaudy derive from Antoni Gaudi? I think so!

    • @TravelingRobert
      @TravelingRobert  2 місяці тому +2

      I think so too

    • @ednakrueger8381
      @ednakrueger8381 2 місяці тому +2

      @@philzail2532 here’s where I can answer this. When Mike (my husband) and I were in Barcelona we toured several places very influenced by Gaudi. According to the tour guides they said it was the overwhelming use of detail to all Gaudi did in his architecture and other art endeavors that lead to people saying something was to Gaudi (gaudy) meaning over the top with something. So y’all are correct.

    Hey Robert, there was a link to this hidden video at the end of your premiere today... just a heads up.
    edit: fun fact: the cathedral in Valencia claims to display the actual Holy Chalice, wich is often also believed to be the Holy Grail. The difference: The chalice is believed to be the cup used during the last supper, while the holy grail originates from Arthurian legend, and is said to be used to collect Jesus' blood from the cross. They are often referred to as the same object.
    Interestingly, The Cathedral in Valencia does not make this connection. They do not claim to have the Holy Grail, but they do claim to have the Holy Chalice.

    Hope people got out of places so they were O.K.

      It's been horrible. I don't think the big city got hit as bad, but I've seen videos of nearby towns and it doesn't look good.
