    Looking forward to the happy coincidence of being in a rural spot on August 11-13. I assume our "naked eyes" will be sufficient to catch a few falling stars!

    Cuando abres el vídeo, en la esquina inferior derecha de este hay un pequeño botón CC. Haces click en el y te aparecerán los subtitulos en inglés, luego colocas la flecha del mouse de nuevo sobre CC y te aparece la opción de traducir subtitulos, haces click, seleccionas español y listo, te aparecerán los subtitulos traducidos al español
