Sights in Valencia




Interesting buildings in the old section of the city.


I thought this would be like tonic water or bitter lemon. It was quite a bit more medicinal than that. After a while though, in the 35 deg heat, it seemed pretty refreshing.


More of the old city, not really sure what it was.


Again, signs--pretty much the same as in Germany, but less emphatic somehow.


Interesting statue.


Looking up what exactly we just ordered for lunch....

We ordered a traditional salt cod dish--we got the above--basically potato chips with prosciutto and a fried egg--and that was just pointing at the menu!


Gazpacho--fabulous on a very hot humid afternoon!

And then there were the less attractive city sights, reminding me what you get with hot, humid port cities...

Swear they were the size of kittens!
