When we arrived in Valencia, it was a steaming 36°C so we took refuge in a local café. There we met a very friendly old man and drank a Horchata (an almond milkshake) – v. nice! From there Colin sorted the accommodation – well his Spanish is better then mine :)
As it cooled, we wandered along the course of the old river, which is now full of gardens. We also explored the Miguelete, which (allegedly) houses the Holy Grail – it was basically a small bronze cup.
Sightseeing over, we stopped for an original Valencian Paella. Colin says he would like to live here, but I don’t see the attraction – it’s too damm hot!
