We only made it to the beach once. Water was lovely but beach was crowded and a long walk!

Loved theses scenes done in ceramic (from ceramic museum).

Walking around the city you look up and see amazing images in stone, marble and even alabaster.

More of the street art near our apartment.

One night they had fireworks over the city. We had a great view from our apartment.

Right across the street from our building is a small bookstore.

It is a dog friendly city. There are usually water bowls at cafes, and cafes have hooks like this.

They have an underwater tunnel so you are looking up at the sharks...very cool!

A sawtooth shark. I'd never heard of it so was excited to see it. They are big and scary looking!

They have two beluga whales that are part of a study on communications between whales.

A great example of day vs night on our block.

A bit more from Valencia

14 juli 2024, Spanje ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

We have enjoyed our time here in Valencia. The city is a fun place to explore, beautiful architecture, great food and interesting history. It’s been warm but manageable with highs in the mid 80’s (luckily we are leaving just before a heat wave is forecasted). The city is very bike friendly, with bike lanes in many areas and bike rental shops everywhere.
The last few days we’ve visited the aquarium, tried to explore parts of the city we’ve not been to, and purchased a few items to take home. The aquarium is the largest in Europe. It was fun to visit as they had many types of birds and fish we don’t have in our area or at our local aquarium (eg beluga whales, sawtooth sharks).
Monday we fly out at the crack of dawn. Next stop home, Sunset Beach.Meer informatie
