Valencia city shocks us! motorhome trip to Spain
Good evening I’ve brought you outside to see this beautiful sunset in Valencia we’re in the Valencia City now um in a car park nothing fancy but uh wow I don’t know it’s not showing too well on this camera it looks really bright but it’s actually as you can see
It’s sort of bouncing off me it’s quite red uh red sky at night Shepherd’s Delight so they say so we arrived here earlier today and we are going to uh walk into Valencia tomorrow uh we’re very close to where the park is that’s quite something isn’t it
Here Comes reders oh now it’s going to look red bounced against him that’s quite a sunet isn’t it yeah it’s beautiful yeah that is lovely yeah that’s a red red isn’t a red sunset I know it’s gorgeous yeah in Van just same we’re in Valencia I know Valencia and it is a
Great little car park it’s fine isn’t it it’s quiet I mean there’s a main road there but you can’t really hear it no it’s really quiet um um police have been around about four five times so far yeah well I think it’s also like a trailer
Truck kind of Park as well so if they’re keeping an eye on things there’s a couple of motor homes here yep but yeah I think I’m going to have to take a few more pictures of uh it’s not coming out on the camera see it’s uh oh there we there we go I’ve
Tilted it up as you can see it now look at that So here we are we are walking through the very big Park that runs through the center of Valencia now how many kilometers did I say it was uh it’s a 6 kilometer walk yeah so we’re just about to find out I think it’s 6 km but it
Goes through the center so yeah it goes from one end to the other uh and there’s all sorts of different places the only thing I can sort of like it to a Central Park in New York everything’s a little bit different yeah it isn’t it um show you now The C Park we’re staying in overnight um is just at the other end of this park and halfway down the park is the old town or Old City the old part of the city so we that’s where we’re heading for today isn’t it it is luckily it’s a
Nice dry sunny day oh yes another scorcher another scorcher I think the weather’s going to break towards the end of the week but yeah I think it’s uh tomorrow’s going to be the highest temperature I think it’s going to be up near the 30s tomorrow um and then after that yeah
It’s dropping down a little bit uh but still nice yeah isn’t it and then the Sun so we’re still off goodd we got the solar beating down yeah working well there with that probably going to stay in that car park again tonight aren’t we yes a romantic car park walk down here
Then in the back yeah we um we’ll stay there again tonight it was quite quiet actually wasn’t it well it it doesn’t sound great if you say it’s on the back end of a building site but no but it is and it goes very quiet there’s police that come
By we seen them about three or four times last night but there are other vehicles Transporters and buses and things that Park up there yeah but it’s a big car park isn’t it and then it’s actually onto a park so it’s quite nice it’s all right yeah well there’s room
For the dogs to have a run around yeah and it’s walkable into the city yeah which is well which is where we said we’re off to now yeah yeah carp wise there’s another three vans there with us so you’ve got a little bit of security CU even if you don’t know somebody you
All look out for each other mhm it is always over just locking up and leaving it but that’s what you got to do isn’t it yeah so yeah let’s let’s go and hit the T into valenia Yeah is City H te I easy theie ofwhere when I return from the after you I am again where I I it all I had a feeling but the signs in the park have uh written in English as well which is quite good makes things uh useful and more interesting to
See water available for the dogs yep and we got the history as well Yeah Is I could You knew my Ringing with the when I return from my skin and bones I’m remembering the words you told Me take me back where I I it I had is wait hold on put me together take me back I belong I want it all I had aing but theing is all Gone want your ti know what you would see up there V Should we walk up the street oh yeah looks interesting doesn’t it Son S sick at The You We’re in the old cityia just ordered off of the menu Gia yeah and I’ve ordered spoon dish of the day so that’s local fried chicken with uh potato PS I’ve got P marara yeah P so you know when you come to the if you’ve got to
Try the abely yeah yeah language as well well I just tried in my best Spanish to order my food yeah and uh he said Perfecto so I think that means I didn’t do bad so my Spanish is coming on as well so trying I’m trying German and
Spanish and we’re trying to local food be rude not yeah Valencia is amazing it is like better than Barcelona we love we love BARC steroid yeah it’s beautiful every single corner you turn there is something stunning to look at uh we were going to spend one
Day here that’s not going to work we’re going to have to spend more yeah we’re definitely going back tomorrow only I think the only thing for p it was a long walk it’s about an hour and 40 slow flly from the car yeah without pipper we’ probably been a
Bit faster but we have to take her pace so it was quite long walk to get here and then of course got a long walk back so we’re not going to plus we wanted to stop for lunch we’re not going to see an awful lot today building wise so we’re
Going to come back tomorrow and do it all again tomorrow B Park yeah but yeah really recommend coming to Valencia really really recommend it it’s like a pork lentil dish is it it’s um it’s almost like a very thick pork lentil soup with um charito in it
It’s really lovely and Dy bread I’ve got pasta bnes which is a bit PL for me but there we go it’s quite I fancied so give a try try not bad for start kicking off here we go my P my P looks good smells lovely and chicken and potatoes which is quite
Literally pois Potato Brothers we go it is what it says on the chin yeah lovely so that’s us finished our lunch um and we’ve come back out again we’re going to walk back through the park back to the van uh only because we’re going to come back in again tomorrow Valencia
Is definitely not the place to come for one day uh definitely more two or 3 days here I think um there seemed to be so much to see but uh after we’d walked all that way and then had some lunch we were like H we’ll come back tomorrow and see
The rest so yeah back through the park now which is going to be a bit of a walk uh but it’s beautiful it really is I was right when I said earlier today it’s a bit like Central Park in New York it is just like Central Park lots of little
Sections ponds Lakes uh Ching paths Sports all sorts of things so yeah we’ve really enjoyed our day here and uh you know it’s been nice to see the park that’s a lovely park isn’t it yeah but we’ve only done half of it it carries on for about another 3
Kilometers behind us so uh yeah Long Way definitely a long way yeah and there’s a lot going on there’s people running cycling they keep fit areas yeah and they offer so much and there’s fitness centers Rugby Football yeah think of um bin there’s other Stu
Going on in there y we’ve um as uh not sure what I was expecting in valenia but uh definitely looks fantastic yes as uh up there with Barcelona well there’s a lot of places you can sit down and have a train call eat yes we did enjoy the
Menu Dela of course as an example we had a it was a a bottle of coke you know there only 30 bottles and that was €250 mhm in a glass with ice and lemon so really is a good price yeah yeah the whole thing came to 33
Yeah brilliant the only thing I’d say is I had spaghetti bise and then Pella and then cheesecake it’s a bit like having two meals wasn’t it yeah oh I mean obviously I’m not going to eat for the rest of the today and I didn’t have any lunch so it’s sort of that’s it
That’s my meal for the day menu of the day absolutely it’s just a meal for the day that’s all it is get stuffed for the day yeah so let’s head back to the van uh this going to be a good long walk is there uh yes and I think the girls are
Quite knacked now it’s not hot anymore it’s just a really nice pleasant temperature now so uh we’ll get back whilst is still warm and pleasant because at night it does drop down quite a bit doesn’t it it can do yeah do right let’s go hello and welcome to a very blowy
Park up in Valencia um the wind suddenly came in this morning it’s uh it’s amazing it’s just suddenly gone from beautiful sunny still to very very windy keep your Windows shut or it’ll blow them off kind of weather so um we had originally planned to stay in
Valencia for yet or Valencia for yet another day um but last night plans changed and uh we are actually moving on today uh the plan seems to be that next year we’re going to come back and do all the areas we missed so we’re going to do a proper in-depth of
Valena uh next year so yeah I don’t know if I showed you this before this is the car park we’re staying in I think I did when we had that lovely uh Sunset but as you can see today look at the palm trees behind me very very
Windy Dolly and pepper over there in the Parklands um they’re having a little run so I think Dolly’s yeah Dolly’s got a ball look so she’s been enjoying that oh here she comes oh there he goes what you got doll slimy it is windy oh goodness yeah that’s one of the balls
She got when uh she had a little shopping spend in France uh a month or so ago so y we’re just uh wrapping up and um I think we’ll be gone out of here by this afternoon which uh yeah you puffed out so that’s that’s our
Plans for today it’s been excuse me I’m just going to turn around it’s been a lovely stay in uh the city we’ve really enjoyed it uh we saw a lot yesterday uh but the weather is very different today and I think the weather has turned a
Little bit um I’m not sure but yeah very very windy out there at the moment and it’s set to be like that uh and for the next 4 days Peace So anyway we’ll catch you on the road a little bit later good evening uh hope you enjoyed
Valencia as much as we did I know it was a bit of a different one for us because I think we showed you more on this video because Valencia’s got so much to see we just uh every single corner you turn in Valencia there’s something there that’s
Whoa wow yes and so we kind of just put it all together on a video um but yeah there there was not a lot of talk in there we were just like oh look at that look at that oh God look at that yeah the only time we rested was when we sat
Down and had the food which was it was good menu Del deer we are going to so miss the old menu Del deers we are and Valena itself what a place it’s so clean yeah very well cared for everybody there was helpful yes and we we didn’t see a
Portion of what we wanted to see no we had intended going back um but we lost a little bit of ground and of course you may have seen in the news the tragic fire that occurred yes in the property next to the park where sadly people lost
Their lives and so many people lost their homes so you know we’ moved on uh we actually moved on about two hours before it happened um it was very close to the car park wasn’t it uh where the fire happened it was horrendous to read about it and hear about it especially
With so many people lost their lives it’s very very sad but as you can see in the W in in the video I’m talking about these ridiculously high winds and that’s what fanned the flames and caused the fire and the destruction to that particular building it was so windy um
And that’s mainly why we moved on so I think we moved on about 300 p.m. and the fire started about halfast 5 it did but you know the going back to the city amazing Place worth a visit yeah and we’re going back we are going back we’re
Going back next year and where we parked up at the air we described it in the Vlog it’s free there’s other people there as well it’s one of those where no you wouldn’t get your chairs out or put anything on the ground other than the tires but it’s super close to the city
Yeah um if you’ve got a bike or you like walking the police kept coming around and obviously because everybody the other Vans I think at one point there was maybe five of us there they were all being respectful too and the police would just do a loop see quite happy
With what they saw and then just drive off again wouldn’t they yeah exactly I mean it was by a park as well so the dogs had exercise in Fall time and so on so they were well taken care of uh but yes what a great stop that was yeah uh
Just want to mention the sound in the video at the end if you think the sound’s gone a bit wonky when we’re having the meal it’s because uh we had to put um The Voice isolator on because the surroundings were so so loud uh when we played back the raw footage you
Couldn’t hear our voices so uh if it does sound a little bit iffy that’s the reason yeah we got a thank you we’ve got a um some coffees to say thank you for so uh we need to say thank you to karice Bill and Freddy and Frankie the King
Charles Spaniels and in fact here’s here they are look at them that’s uh Freddy watching us on the TV cuz he’s a good boy um but Frankie wouldn’t watch us I think he no I don’t think he likes us oh maybe he’s watching tonight and we can bring him round come
On Frankie look at us yeah um anyway that’s the boys uh they are very goodlook so thank you so much uh we really appreciate it and we’ve got a shout out to Nick and shery hi Nick and Cher guys thanks for watching I think we’ll give another shout out tonight I
Met a lovely new friend tonight didn’t I Sam and this is Sam and uh this is Sam’s mom pushing him into the photograph because he’s he’s apparently he camera shy but anyway I made very good friends with Sam so uh he’s uh just staying uh one door he’s staying one
Door down he’s he’s one van down from us tonight with his mom and dad Michaela and Tony um so uh will say hi to you guys although if I shout you can probably hear me anyway probably can and then in between us in fact no I think
They they just gone to get water they’ve just gone to get water they’ve got a lovely dog I don’t think they do YouTube but their dog is a lovely dog it’s like a husky style dog and he’s called Kevin what a great name for a dog it is isn’t
It yeah okay uh yeah so we hope you enjoyed Valencia well we certainly did hope you did there is so much more to be seen we’ve only just scratched the surface but we will return yeah and bring you guys lots lots more well there is more to come on this trip there’s
Plenty more to come so uh keep watching the next video is going to be with you on Thursday and on Thursday we’re going to be taking you to a middle of a farmers’s protest yes anyway we shall see you on Thursday bye bye

We love Valencia, been there 5 to watch the Motogp. Every year we would stay in a different part and always finding new things to see as we walked around. The metro is great to use. The beach is fabulous, especially out of season. Much prefer Valencia to Barcelona.
We love Valencia too. Beautiful city, so many lovely buildings. Sounded like a really long walk back to the park up though
VALENCIA looked like the prettiest city so far, very sad about that fire,😔, nice to hear that the police patrol alot, gives you a sense of security, 🐶
Now you can understand why ive been here three times its an awesome city & if you get chance do the open top bus tour as you think what you have seen on foot is awesome!! You can only imagine what the but tour is like if they still do it of course as im talking about 5years ago me & my family last went & i totally agree with you about Barcelona ive been there too & Velencia is better even tho Barcelona isn't awesome too!!👌🏻👍🏻😎
Beautiful sunset Guys I do love a sunset 🌅 and one of the prettiest cities. We must stop there this time on our trip. Enjoy 😘 xx
Hi lovelies great video how lovely is Valencia 🥰 loved your footage of the park and the bee that was amazing! Such a shame about that fire I did see that on the news they recon the cladding had something to do with it! Didn’t realise you were close by 😢 so sad !!! 😢 take care guys, safe travels 😘🥰 xxx
Thank you another great video
Hiya Folks, Valencia looks lovely and fab weather, too. Park up looked nice and peaceful. ❤
Who's been drawing on the car park tarmac? 🤣
Ola Corrin Paul Dolly and Pippa What a lovely time you all had in Valencia. We visited Valencia on the 14th Feb. We stayed at Devesa Gardens about 20k south of the City. We took the bus in and like you fell in love with its beautiful buildings, helpful people and the historic ambience in the old town. Very sad to hear about another fire and you were so close too. We have since moved North and have enjoyed Barcelona on our trip towards the French border. Staying in Roses now which is a beautiful seaside town with a huge ancient fort. The promenade is beautiful a perfect little bay. Like you we have been affected by these very high winds. Safe travels to you all. Stay safe From Kate Pierre and Tasha 😘
Beautiful sunset. Maybe a microfon could be good for your channel. The sound is very bad.
Sorry we missed you this morning. We are early risers and like to move early so we have the afternoon to explore.
Good luck at the vets, please let me know the cost as maybe use next time if a better a price than Buchy. I checked Buchys price last night. We paid 35e last year and 43.50e this year. Quite a steep price rise.
Safe travels home guys.
Hope the flood damage is not too bad when you see it in person.
Maybe see you in a field or parkup again.
Looking forward to watching the rest of your vlogs❤
Hi Guys, what was the name of your Facebook page Please? can't seem to find it?
Hi Really saddened to hear about the fire and loss of lives, thankful you moved on safely. Looked such a lovely place, take care, safe travels ❤
I visited Valencia many years ago, It is a great city. Although I hear recently that it has introduced a low emission zone and is planning on a patrol and diesel car ban. Did you have to purchase one of these 'not so environmentally friendly tax stickers' for permission to drive in Valencia and create pollution?
We've been to Valencia a few times. The metro system runs all the way out to nearby towns so one year we rented a villa in Lliria. I would certainly recommend the science park and the bioparc.
Corrine, a suggestion ….. pan your camera shots slower please. You are too fast and we can't appreciate your views as the speed in which you turn is way too fast. Especially when you were trying to share your sunset. Kind regards, Stuart
Valencia is a wonderful city…always aspired to live there…enjoy…
Don’t miss the Albufera Park south of the city..
Another great video love watching them and seeing Pippa and Dolly don't change anything about them keep safe ❤xx
Would like to see more of the views when you are driving. Otherwise great to see one of my favourite Spanish cities. Much better than Barcelona. Dont forget to look in the old buildings and the old Market. Superb place. You need to get a map of Valencia when you go back because there is so much more to see there.The eco park is the greatest but i dont know if dogs are allowed. Spain has a lot of very strong winds in the Winter so very dodgy if there is fire. There is The Falas celebrations are around January/February which involves fire, so maybe they wont so it this year.
Hello just discovered you today. Nice video about Valencia, but only a tiny bit of it. You can use metro or buses to reach other areas, we do not walk all the city as its Spain 3rd biggest city. There is so much more to see in Valencia and surroundings and discover about its gastronomy. Always better to research for restaurants as we have very good ones. Hopefully you spend more time next time u visit. Safe travels xx
Our home city! We'll be heading back up soon to collect our summer clothes. Going to be staying in the small motorhome area in Turís.
As a Spaniard, I always say Valencia is the most balanced "big" city in Spain: not the greatest at anything, but pretty great in everything that does matter.
El Parque del Turia, which is roughly 2.5 times longer than Central Park (if memory serves right), is one of my favorite places in all of Spain, since it basically allows you to walk from the northernmost parts of the city, to almost the sea, without even setting food on concrete. The sheer example of how a tragedy was made into a wonder, for generations to come.
P.S. If you´re still around Valencia, please do some research and try to find a proper place to eat paella. No place worth its salt serves paella by the dish, much less included in a Menu of the Day. As we usually say, that´s no paella, that´s "rice with things". ;P
Best!
Another lovely free park up and so handy for Valencia and wow what great weather your still having 😎😎🐶🐶still looks warm with the windy weather sad news about the fire😢 thanks for giving us inspiration for our travels safe travels guys ❤😊
Amazing vlog again. What a park and city thankyou for sharing your day with us all. Loved the background music choice too and the flower and fauna treats. Cheered me up no end as alas another continuous wet dark day here in Devon, Cant wait to go on my adventures later this year when i retire and get first MH. Keep enjoying what you are doing and look forward to next instalment
Those girls have done so well meeting other dogs after what they’ve both been through xx
Have you thought of getting a dog pushchair for Pippa? We got one for our older dog and can now walk miles!
We love Valencia, only there for a few hours on a cruise stop. The Cathedral is beautiful
Love the style of filming, makes it feel relatable. Do you happen to know the name of the parking spot you guys used in Valencia? 😊
Miss the beautiful sun sets ❤ , we didn’t do València and like corrin says it’s stunning 😍 x
We absolutely loved Valencia!!
We had an incredible park up, highly recommend.
We also thought we would do 1 night, and ended up doing 3!
Totally agree, every time you turn the corner, you’re 😮 WOW!😮
Travel safely! The winds are horrendous!
Hi. You said in a recent video that your motorhome warranty wasn`t very good, did you use Engineer Aftercare Warranty as recommended by Motorhom Depot as i condidering taking out this warranty? Thank you for your time and enjoy your travells from Steve.
Hi guys 🤗 we're having a catch up and getting so excited to head to Spain next week 🤩 Valencia looks fantastic and that park is amazing 😍 So glad you were away before the terrible fire, really great vlog, thanks for bringing us the sun 🌞❤
