    This confirms the rumor that JCD is going to replace Jeremy Clarkson. I watched all 54 minutes and was clamoring for more!

    The best tortilla you don’t find in Spain but in Argentina!

    The Spanish people will be thrilled with the post prod choice of latin music as background for the Spanish sights.

    Next time, use Mariachis. That will get the massage thru faster.

    #2 No, you won’t. Meat, yes but not tortilla espaniola (english keyboard here) or any of the other nice Spanish foods.

    And don’t even try to compare jamon crudo with jamon iberico de bellota. That’s a sin.

    Travel shows including a segment on food. Easy filler. Good thing this was more about tech including a segment on test driving a car. Easy filler, or was it the other way around?

    I’ve always wanted to put on a travel show with a longish segment in each country about using their bathrooms. What kind of flush mechanism, what kind of toilet paper. You know, filler.

    I’m just jealous.

    Next time you’re here, John, let me know and my wife will make you a REAL Spanish omlette. And Pedro’s right – the choice of background music was most unfortunate.

    Good stability control in the Focus, John. For an American.

    I’m not sure John selected the music. He may not be to blame.

    I enjoyed it a lot.

    I shall see my great nephew for the first time tomorrow. Mama is from south of the border down Nicaragua way.

    #11 Obviously. That’s why I said “post prod”. The blame might fall into a macfan that vlogs but since I saw the video here, I made the comment here.

    John,

    I’m glad to see you had a good time in Madrid and Toledo. I was in both of those places last fall and I had a great time.

    A couple of comments:

    In Toledo there is a church which has towers where you can climb to the to of to get a panoramic view of the town. It seems like you missed out on that.

    Also there is a local dish called Cocido upon which it appears you missed out.

    Also re the Tortilla Espanola… Judging from the one you were eating, I could do better right here in NYC. But I’m sure that one was good. A good tortilla is fabulous no matter where it is made.
