  • Our ship was detoured due to bad weather to Vigo, Spain. We walk through town and up the hill to Castelo do Castro.
    Vigo is a city and municipality in the province of Pontevedra, within the autonomous community of Galicia, Spain.
    This was recorded in September 2018.

    Enjoyed your video! Thank you! I’m happy you enjoyed it. I’m from San Francisco and walk the same streets of Vigo at least once a year. I was dispatched there for a project in 2000 and fell in love with an Española. In 2005 we married, in Vigo, she moved to the States, and we spend as much time as we can visiting her family. I really enjoy walking the streets as it’s a serious walking city...as is most of Spain. We’ll retire there in the near future.
