Tuesday 21st October, 2025 - Valencia

Sunrise in Valencia

We caught the shuttle bus at around 10.30 am close to the old city. It was a 1/2 drive.
From where the bus dropped us we walked across this bridge into the old city.  The bridge was originally over the Turia River, and after a major flood in 1957 the river was rerouted to a new channel south of the city and the former bed was transformed into the Turia Gardens, now a popular urban park which is approximately 7 klm long.









you enter the Old city through the City Gate.




We sat for a while with a drink and people watched.

There were lots of 
people around, some great laneways





We walked to a square where the Police Headquarters and Municipal buildings were








These are some photos of the city from the bus on the way back to the ship



Back at the ship in time for a late lunch at the One Pool Bar, a spa, then dinner and drinks in the Top Sail Lounge listening to music being played by not Larry !!!!
