Hasta la vista...

¡Vaya con Diós!

¡Vaya con Diós!

Searching this phrase gets me to Vaya Con Dios?

[BobH]

WOW!

I don't know who that group is, but it sure has some sexy women in it and some jumping music.

Apparently the group is called Vaya con Dios (from Belgium), but that video didn't make that clear.

On the YouTube I saw reference to "The Night Owls". When I searched on that name I found that there is a recently formed group by that name residing in Austin, TX, which is only 65 miles from here.

Amazing what the Inter Webs produce, eh?

[BTW: ¡Vaya con Diós! is Spanish for 'Go with God' and is often used by native speakers of that tongue of my acquaintance.]

I've known the music of Vaya Con Dios for a while...and some of their songs are quite rhythmic...
Coming back to your Spanish expression... What a lovely expression that is..., to send someone on their way with God; wow! (Never knew that).

[HansV]

Rudi's video clip is indeed by the Belgian band Vaya con Dios; 'Nah Neh Nah' was one of their biggest hits in Europe. They gave their last concert last month.

[Rudi]

WOW! Thanks for the link Hans.
This is news. I have know of their music for a long time and this news saddens my heart! I will miss them.

As of 2014, Dani Klein was performing her last international tour under the Vaya Con Dios formula.[2] Vaya Con Dios officially stopped with their last concert on Saturday 25 October 2014, in Vorst Nationaal.

Bobs expression was VERY timely in deed, and maybe I can reiterate the expression for Geoff to the individuals of the band too (esp. Dani Klein) - Vaya con Dios!!!

Geoff's thread has been thoroughly hijacked now!

I prefer the much earlier version by Les Paul and Mary Ford.

Me too, but they are not singing that song; they chose it for the name of their group.

Now you have to promise Costa Rica photos!

Wow. This normally never happens in Scuttlebutt.

Two unusual things. One was in Antigua - I was only just getting used to people riding motorbikes without helmets - but one girl was riding a motorbike, no helmet, on a cobbled street, talking on a mobile phone - holding it with one hand. I hope she didn't need to stop suddenly. It was quite a feat.

The other thing - and I'm told its not uncommon - was an armed guard. They are common in banks and jewellery stores - but there was an armed guard, with quite a big gun, literally riding shotgun on the back of a beer delivery truck.

(Sorry to hijack this thread).

[Rudi]

That's no different to China where they have vicious guard dogs protecting the savoured cargo.

Now to have an armed guard dog - that would be something!

[GeoffW]

[Rudi]

Excellent. Love the look in his eyes...as if he spotted the "enemy" and doesn't know what button to press....

"Shoot if you see a cat out there!"

best advice on cats I've heard in a long time.

So there must be others who don't like cats.
