Day 2 in Valencia Vamanos!

Breakfast: No one needed a wake up call as we were ready to go! Quick look at the map together and a talk through the day ahead meant we needed breakfast fuel. A walk over the bridge with a view of the Oceanography centre and Science museum in the lovely sunshine was a great start to the day. We went for breakfast at a cafe and looked through the menu, there wasn't much choice. We had chocolate croissants or bacon sandwiches and orange juice. The food was ok so that was a good thing. Walking to the park We had a really long walk to a park which had loads of slides and things and it was really big. The park was Gulliver's face, legs and arms. Going to town We walked to the market and saw a cathedral inside there was people praying and outside there was people selling paper decorations for Easter made out of straw reeds folded into shapes. We had ice cream that has about 40 different flavour including terron, donuts,Oreo and loads more. We all ordered in Spanish. After a short walk some of us bought a hotdog and walked to the metro station to go to the beach. Beach We went to the beach which was full of sand and it had beautiful water. We buried Shania in the sand! The massive climbing ropes provided a challenge to climb to the top. We stayed there for about an hour and just before we left we played a memory game about the things we liked best about Valencia so far. Highlights included the flight, making new friends, the hotel (particularly the amazing powerful showers), the food and speaking Spanish and being understood. Imax Then we got on the metro to get imax cinema to watch two films, one about a turtle and the other one about a magical prince in 3D. We had the option to listen to it in English or Spanish, but most of us chose English. Some people's headphones didn't work to change the language so they listened to it in Spanish. Lots of the phrases we know we're heard during the film. Dinner We went to dinner in a Spanish restaurant. The food was really nice, there was pasta, croquets mussels and octopus. Shanay ate octopus thinking it was a piece of onion! There were lots of dishes to choose from. As it was a buffet we could have a variety and try new things. lots of people had dessert of fruit which Mrs Fehrenbach and Miss Clarke were impressed with! We then walked back to the hotel to go to bed.
