    Great Vlog - really enjoyed it. Playa del Cura ; Latin = Care, Italian = care ... but think in Spanish they intend 'priest's beach' as Cura is an old, still used word for Priest in Spanish, hence, as you said .... the priest died in the sea. 😎 Hope you are both well !

    Good video , we've a place in Catral , were just back home to the UK last week infact , love a walk along the ' town beach' in Torrevieja as we call it....' Scottish Couple in Spain ' who you're probably aware of live just near there....or did .
    One tiny criticism.......its a bit annoying......every palm tree or lamp post is curved like a banana , cars are about the length of buses.....everything looks distorted .........or poss its the vodka I've consumed haha.

      Hi Stevie, yes that's the price I have to pay for using a 360 camera. You have outlined the disadvantages very well. The advantages are, I don't have to think too hard about where to point the camera as it films everywhere at the same time so I don't miss anything. I re-frame the pictures afterwards. It's a great storytelling camera but the distortion can be offputting I know. Thanks for watching and for your comments. Best wishes, Mike and Yvonne.
