how many meters audrey four four

so good and the wine is also here

wow good morning good morning guys good  morning greetings from callao yes today  

we are taking you on a little day trip so  we drove about one hour north of lima we're  

currently in the province of callao and we're  going to be spending the day in a district called  

la ponta but our first stop of the day is the  fortress real felipe we're going to be doing  

a little tour here on our own because we all  know sam is not a fan of guided tours well  

it's not good for filming obviously when  you have someone talking the whole time so  

we'll be teaching you some history along the way  don't worry and yeah we're we are with my cousin  

and her boyfriend the four of us together  so it'll be fun and let's go check out this  

cool fortress that apparently used  to guard the city from pirates do it

to give you a bit more information this  fortress was built during the vice royalty  

of peru when callao was the main port of the  americas and connected the colonies with spain  

at that time there was a threat of pirates and  corsairs and in fact due to inadequate defenses  

several pirate attacks did take place when in  1746 a powerful earthquake and a tsunami that  

followed destroyed most of the existing defenses  the viceroy ordered this fortress to be built and  

this would become one of spain's most important  constructions in the new world so i don't know how  

well you can see but we are in the port area of  gadao you can see a few boats off in the distance  

hopefully sam's camera is able to capture that a  little bit better and also we have a whole bunch  

of cannons all along the fortress pointing out  to see because this was a defensive fortification  

and yeah apparently they needed to defend against  pirates back in the day so pretty cool spot we're  

about to go inside one of the towers now so we'll  bring you along and show you what's in there  

my cousin and her boyfriend have both been here  before when they were younger as part of like  

school field trips and they said it's a bit of  amazing there so excited to see what it's like

oh yes we can go up those stairs  apparently let's go here that is

this place really is a maze they  have so many little like paths  

hallways stairs going up going down  that breakaway whoa it's pretty cool  

but yeah whenever they were under attack they  would like shut the fortress completely down  

they had all the food and water they needed and  they would try and outlast as long as they could

central

there's the port

okay watch your step here those are some  super steep stairs going down you got it yeah

it's all flat same

we are in like a narrow little tunnel that's  maybe half a meter wide super creepy all black  

you need um the light on your phone to even  see anything in here super super creepy

all right we just learned something samuel  what is this this is absolutely fascinating so  

family friend georgie was telling us  that this right here is a listening  

hole that could have been used you could  hear the conversations of the prisoners  

so yeah they were not having any  kind of privacy no secrets no secrets

at the end of our visit we went  inside the peruvian army museum  

which has one section dedicated to  the incas and their arts and culture  

and another one showcasing historical uniforms  weapons and other military paraphernalia

hello hello so our adventure has ended what a what  a great um self-guided tour absolutely loved it so  

i'll first start off with the price point it was  20 soles so just slightly over five us dollars  

i'd say we spent almost two hours there there's a  lot to see there's a lot to see there's a lot to  

cover on foot a lot of spooky tunnels yeah there's  spooky tunnels there's incredible vantage points  

like you really get the sense of how this was a  military fortification site and you also get some  

great views of the port so yeah i would highly  recommend coming here this is an easy easy day  

trip from lima to come and visit this historical  site and we're not even done we're gonna go visit  

some other places and also have a meal so uh  hope you'll stay hope you'll stick around for  

that so yeah you can get here by taxi or you can  also organize a tour it might be a little bit far  

for public transportation but it was really cool  to visit really enjoyed it and it is almost lunch  

time we're going for italian very very soon we've  got it it's exciting i skipped breakfast for it so  

i'm ready i'm ready next we walked around some  of the side streets just outside the fortress as  

you can see this is a historic area that has kind  of been overlooked and neglected for a long time  

but slowly certain areas are starting to come back  to life even if it's just one street at a time

our first stop was sona monumental del  callao this is a colorful up-and-coming  

area featuring lots of street art  independent shops and restaurants  

foreign

oh

here you can hold this so i can pet here

that's all you get

the glass covered gallery formerly  known as casa ronald is now an art  

hub featuring various exhibitions ranging  from photography to murals and sculptures

so

that's a jellyfish and then  we spotted a submarine so we  

took a small detour to check  that out before going to lunch  

because i mean how often do you get the chance  to explore a submarine up close and personal

wow okay

how many meters audrey four four

will be in luciana

see

remember i only have one shoulder  you're almost there see no

it's not so bad because you  can just push against the wall  

you know there's no wall up here yeah there is  no wall going here's the wall ends there you go

that's pretty amazing

and right now we are doing a tour we're  going to go through six compartments  

this submarine can carry up to 12 torpedoes  

and yeah here we are never been inside  a submarine before this is kind of

kind of cool isn't it it feels claustrophobic  to you no not really i mean it's extremely it's  

quite narrow but i'm the hardest part  for me was actually going down because  

i only have one one good shoulder at  the moment i've entered this one and  

although i don't like heights so it was a double  whammy double whammy oh this is like the movie

foreign

that's the immersion

to give you a bit more information this was  one of four submarines for the peruvian navy  

that were constructed in the united states  based on the u.s navy's mackerel-class  

submarines these were the last submarines  constructed by the us for the export market  

ab tao served for 48 years in the navy and  made five thousand and three dimes it was  

decommissioned in 1999 and in 2004 it became  the first floating museum in latin america

so here we have the the bunk beds triple  bunks and i will admit it does feel a little  

tiny bit claustrophobic here because you do  have to squeeze through very small spaces but  

i think you can do it unless you  really don't like tight spaces  

then don't climb down and don't  come down here but i managed so

yeah almost there

that was an awesome experience so much fun  

we are late for our lunch reservation  but i'd say it was worth it

for lunch we went to tadera rosetto this  is an italian restaurant and because our  

relatives are friends with the owners we first  visited with them and met their lovely cat

so we got a little snacking board pecking platter  it comes with a little breadstick some melted  

bubbling cheese with pesto walnuts cherry tomatoes  it was bubbling a few seconds ago like the cheese  

was boiling just came out of the oven so you  got to be careful with that sam is claiming his  

piece of bread before it disappears the hungry  camera man the lonely the lonely camera man

it's good um love it love it i haven't even  started with the mains or possibly even dessert  

yet so good stuff coming all right so i got the  prosciutto pizza it's got a mountain of prosciutto  

it also has arugula it has cheese and of course  tomato sauce so look it's already been pre-sliced  

beautiful italian style pizza look at that wow

that's the real deal that's authentic italian food  

it feels like we could be eating this in uh  in italy for my pasta i got the spaghetti  

alaputanesca that is my favorite sauce it  comes with anchovies capers it's got garlic  

it's a tomato base and it's just so so delicious  if you like a little bit of a spicy sauce  

this is the right one i've already  sprayed tomato sauce on my shirt but  

that's just how it goes at an  italian restaurant so here we go

so good and the wine is also here you need  some red wine for a pasta to dinner so cheers  

for dessert we tried a few different  desserts including the pecan pie  

the nutella cheesecake and the homemade tiramisu

alrighty guys ready guys  we just left the restaurant  

what a day this was like this kind of reminded  me of how much fun travel could be you know what  

i mean yes two children just collided in front of  us um yeah we had a really good time super fun day  

this is a part of lima actually it's outside  of lima this is a part of cadal that we had  

never been to yeah so it was really cool to see  something new explore feel like tourists because  

we haven't really left the neighborhood much  lately i feel like this is the first like real  

authentic travel day we've had since we've been  in peru like we've kind of just stuck to familiar  

areas and we got out of our comfort zone not so  much our comfort zone we just went somewhere new  

oh wow those children yeah but um just enjoyed  everything uh the highlight for me was well the  

submarine was just amazing yeah wow i've been on a  i've been fortunate to go on a few different ships  

and yes never submarines never though though but  i mean yeah yeah we're like under the water and  

just crawling pulling down on that ladder  it's fascinating it's fascinating to see how  

confined you are like yes it's vertically  long but horizontally challenged obviously  

yeah we don't want to be stuck in one of those  for a while you wouldn't i i i it felt a tiny bit  

claustrophobic yeah um and the italian food and  just the hospitality getting to meet with the with  

the family who runs the restaurant yeah childhood  friends of our uncle yeah and so we got got to go  

up into the house and meet meet the pets and have  delicious authentic italian food and just overall  

a phenomenal day i'd say and let's do price point  before we forget because i know you guys always  

ask for prices my dish was 38 soles your was yours  was 40. yeah so let's do some math yeah it's like  

mine was about 10 bucks yeah around the 10 mark  exactly outstanding value when you think it was  

like really high quality authentic style italian  food i highly recommend it also just love the area
