Hola!  if you’re just catching up, check out Part I here.

So, day two!  It started with breakfast (after being woken up by the loudest street band I have ever heard in my entire life….)

And then we headed to the beach.  But first, we stopped in a very close-by market and walked around a bit. When in Spain, there are pig legs.  Always.

And lots of food vendors!

We bought some Greek food (not sure what it was) and some Paella Valenciana that wasn’t nearly as good as the night before, but still tasty.  With our food in hand, we headed to the bus stop to catch a ride to the beach.

The bus took longer than we expected, but once we arrived, we were both happy 😉  We had lunch sitting on the wall that bordered the beach, sharing both of the dishes.

Hehehe.

Then we went to the beach, but the clouds kind of rolled in and it was a little cooler than we had anticipated, so we went for a stroll, sat for a bit, and then headed back.

Still beautiful, though!!

Once back in the center of Valencia, we walked in and out of some of the stores and then headed back to the flat to get ready for a fun night out!!

We shared some wine and then headed over to the same market from earlier in the day where there was a “tapas fest” of sorts happening!

We shared, like, 1000 plates and drank a few beers.  I tried things I’ve had before and other things that I have never had!!

  

But the best part was my handsome date!  The guy on the left.

Hahah…just kidding.  The right 😉 )

And then we found a bar with dancing and danced a whole lot 🙂  It was definitely a fun night!!

And in the morning, I sure was feeling it… haha.  We had some breakfast, then shortly after, some lunch, and then back to the train we went!

Short, but so, so sweet.
