Hotel Astoria Palace Valencia

... but that a mouse had run under the bag or something. It was just so bizarre.<br><br>Anyway, I get back on the bus and settle in for some more sleeping. Sure it's 2 in the afternoon, but I'm "traveling." (Side note. I know putting the period inside the quotes is proper. But doesn't it just look stupid? I mean, from a design perspective it really should be on the outside. Or am I wrong and it looks stupid because it's wrong and I have it all backward in my head?) And so ...

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 ...

... plus no waiting lines, no choosing or comparing products and prices. And when you return home (or your "campfire in the wild") you can prepare some new amazing dishes with all that you find! <br><br>Here a collection of our favorite recipes that we made up during this trip (more to come): <br><br>Banana chips<br>Needed:<br>Some green more tough bananas called "plantain" (1 or 2 is enough for 2 persons)<br>Salt<br>Sun flour oil ...

... qui chante à mes oreilles!!<br>Exposition de Sorolla, artiste peintre espagnol natif de Valence. Il a décrit l'espagne du début du XXe siècle sur d'immenses fresques. Isabel est enchantée de me faire découvrir sa ville et les trésors dont elle regorge. Mais mon besoin de liberté recommence à se faire sentir.. l'envie de continuer la route reprend le dessus!<br>

Trained to Valencia from Barcelona.. missed the first one because someone´s (mine) watch had the wrong time.<br><br>Stayed in an awesome B&amp;B which had its one Apple I-mac in our room!<br><br>Did a late night tour of the city, visited the Valencia cathedral with one of the only recognised Holy Grail artifacts, a cup which dates from 1BC apparently used by Jesus at some point. They also had the shrunken ...

... a lot of faculties of the university on the map except the one of psychology, neither do they put a map or route description online with the faculty. That made me end up in the middle of the maze of faculties, but psychology was unfindable and I didn't have more time because I had an appointment at three so I had to go. At least I had seen the location of the University which isn't too bad. Not charming whatsoever but there are parks close and it is not too far from the beach ...

... made it and found ourselves some seats. There was soem lovely scenery but after 6 hours i was sstarting to get a bit bored of it. At the end of the line we caught a metro which brought us about half an hour back out of the city as we are on the outskirts of Valencia. We had the first (and hopefully only) taxi of the trip to the hotel as we had no idea where it was. It ...

... seeing windmills and the famous, gigantic bull cut-out on the mountain? You know, the black silhouette of a HUGE bull? That's exciting stuff. After three hours of driving we reached our destination in various states of restfulness. Valencia is beautiful, so I got over my sleepiness as quickly as possible, jumped in line for the museum tickets, and started listening to all of the Spanish, and Catalan, around me. We must have waited in line for an hour, but because we had been so early ...

... und etwas Bargeld angereist. Im Restaurant in Sueca hatte ich mit der Karte bezahlen wollen, danach bei der Bank abheben, selbst in der Deutschen Bank in Valencia war ich, aber die tarjeta spuckte keinen Cent aus. Und so sah ich mich vor einer Woche Ferien mit fünfzehn Euro Taschengeld. Dabei hatte ich doch viel vorgehabt. Mein Vati hat mich wie immer gerettet, und mir Taschengeldvorschuss per Schnelltransfer gewährt... Achso, Valencia habe ich natürlich ...
