Quick visit to Valencia, Spain




Last Wednesday, during our school's Fasnacht break, Jennifer and Cam took a cheap Ryanair flight from Basel to Valencia. Our bed and breakfast was on the eighth floor of apartment building right across the street from the new performing arts and science centres. We took in two great Imax shows, Mysteries of the Nile, and the Alps. The centre of Valencia is great too....the Sorrenos Gate, started in 1492, and completed in six years, was part of the old Valencia fortifications. There really are oranges on the trees in the middle of February in Valencia. Fantastic!
