On Tuesday we took our rental car and drove east up the Spanish coast to the third largest city, Valencia. We were very glad that Eli was driving as the road signs and traffic of the city were busy. As soon as possible we found a parking garage and headed out on foot. It was a cloud-covered day but we were hoping to stay one step ahead of the storm. I had downloaded a walking tour guide before leaving Oregon and it was proving to be helpful. As you can see from the photos one of our high points of the day involved a Starbucks coffee house. We really just stopped in honor of Jeremi, and yes, raise our glasses to her!
The rain was coming down hard by the time mid-day mealtime arrived so we were happy to find reprieve from the elements at an elegant wine house called "Bodega La Paz." We ate a typical Spanish lunch sharing all of the dishes so that we could taste more. Mealtime is a relaxing time to share with friends and family and can go on for two to three hours. Hard to imagine that we could linger that long. All part of the Spanish way!
