Alys and Jess Tour Europe

Spain and Rain

There are [38] photos in this gallery.

We looked at the weather report, it looked sunny in Valencia, and so that is where we went. The rain came, too!

People pay to sit under these umbrellas when it is sunny but we got to sit under it for freezies while it rained. Views[53] Of course I don´t know who this statue is suppossed to be, but isn´t it funny how the birds are sitting on him? Views[49] The Spanish have good taste in wall paint and decor. Views[50] One day, we were just chilling on the beach and a bunch of guys in Borat swimwear ran into the ocean. Then they ran back out. Views[47] We went with friends to see this Flamenco singer. She was amazing but I don´t know how to upload the video I took. You´ll have to take my word for it. Views[62]
 
Alys with our Belgian friend, Martin. Views[66] Bara, Lorenzo (he hosted us for two days), and Martin. Views[64] This building looked like a castle but it wasn´t. I don´t know what it is. I´m sure I´m totally offending all of my friends in Valencia, but it just wasn´t a real castle. Views[61] Kind of creepy. The wall art in Valencia is pretty artistic though. Views[61] I loved this one. Views[58]
 
Alys, Hubert, Greg and other people at a little get-together in Valencia. This amazing guy named Jorge was sweet enough to invite us to hang out with his friends. Jorge is great! Views[56] I think this photo is hilarious. Great face, Hubert. Jorge introduced us to Hubert because Jorge is fabulous. Views[48] Babuskas and cowboys with Greg and Jorge. Isn't Jorge adorable? He is also smart and funny and creative. Views[64] The Italian. He gave us chocolate and won our hearts right away. Views[52] Jess and Marga right before we had paella. Views[64]
 
Look! The creepy-crawly is trying to escape! Views[53] Little village where we had paella on a lazy Sunday. Views[53] Even though it was raining we went for a walk... Views[46] ...and ended up in Vietnam. Marga said we could keep walking but it would be, Our host for the majority of the time we were in Valencia, Marga. Que bonita! Views[53]
 
Costa Brava. This is actually the view from Tarragona. Que bonita, no? Views[38] I don't know how to rotate the photo. Views[39] Our little campsite at Torre de la Mora. We meant to be there for three days but stayed for six. We love you, Xavier! Views[38] The two people that helped us enjoy Valencia so much, Marga and Lorenzo. Besitos. Views[50] The bull ring in Valencia. What do you think about the tradition of bull fighting? What a great conversation starter that one is. Views[36]
 
This is what happens when you want to get the most out a museum, you have a camera with weird settings, and there is not anyone else around. Views[36] This is funny because the Spanish guys in Seattle always wanted to build their casilles, and there in Tarragona was a casille statue. Views[41] Jess and I being part of the crowd. Views[34] Words can not describe and photos do not do justice to some of the beautiful places we have been. Views[33] We went camping but some how ended up at Sandals Jamaica. This camp ground was more of a resort for British and Polish tourists. We fit right in. Views[42]
 
Two friends we met while camping, Emily and Akash. Thanks for saving my life, Akash. Views[40] So...the campground/resort we stayed at for a week had live entertainment every night. Of course we participated. Views[37] The beach we spent one glorious week enjoying. Views[39] Xavier. Our friend and waiter. Views[42] A beautiful fruit stand at the famous market in Barcelona. Views[52]
 
I loved the little narrow streets in Barcelona. Views[46] The arc de triumph in Barcelona. Our favorite park was just behind me in this photo. Views[52] Ooops, I can not remember the name of this park. Guell? It was pretty sweet though. Views[55]
