Confortel Aqua Four Valencia

... through the town. It's really interesting. But it's outside. And like 3 whole blocks away. That's asking a bit too much of me. Ha. Which reminds me. A guy asked me today what my plans were and I said I was considering being a lazy tourist and taking the red tour bus around. He just shook his head and said, "Why waste your money? You should just walk. Those buses are for old people." While I don't disagree, I'm happy to be called old if it saves me from walking. <br><br>OMG ...

I am never taking an overnight train again. So I left Granada at 10 pm on the overnight train to Valencia and since all the couchette beds were booked, I had to sleep on the regular seats. This train was so uncomfortable. Try getting sleep while sitting in a stiff chair with all the lights on and tons of people making noise, talking, moving about to get off at their stops and at one point a woman sat next to me with her crying baby. I barely slept at all and my ...

... I studied French in school :) but a good push. I think part of the enjoyable part is that I'm learning because I want to, and not because I will be tested (takes the pressure off)<br><br>It's about a 20 minute walk to school. I'm glad that I have Simon to walk with (I don't know if I would have found it otherwise). :)<br><br>Classes end in the early afternoon- Mostly I've treated myself ...

... in Valencia included ... giant archways from the old 14th century fortress walls the old markets (Mercado Central - fresh food market with almost 1000 stalls, all under a pretty glass roof) the new markets (Mercado de Colon - flashy, but no fresh food) the Valencia Cathedral &amp; bell tower (really enjoyed this audio tour. Saw the actual shrivelled up hand of Saint Vincent ...

... is nice. Jay and I found the best Japanese resturant, we ate there 2 days in a row! Buffet lunch for 10 euros, all you can eat- you order off the menu and they cook fresh sushi etc yum, yum! We loved the break for carb-loaded food. We were in a really good hostel so opted to cook most nights after our large lunches. One of the days we spent at the beach, hot temperatures and high winds made us pasty little things decide to purchase an umbrella to be sun-smart ...

... By this time it was slowly getting dark and we needed to get some dinner. We headed to our cafe from the previous nigth and ordered some more of the yummy paella. Tomorrow we are off to Madrid, another big city. I must say im gonna miss Valencia, i really love this city, it still has not lost its small town feel. We have an early morning train tomorrow, and a 4 hour journey to Madrid. Also we decided to cancel Blois and add the extra day in Paris. later sam!!

... while then found this pub that was pumping. So we went inside and had a few more drinks of beer. We met these Swedish girls who joined us. We kept drinking and talking until about 5am. By this point the night is done and so are we. Slept in until about 3pm he next day. At six o'clock we went to the beach just as the sun was setting and did the polar bear swim. We were expecting ...
