Better late…

…than never! Back in November, Brian and I headed off for a quick 5-day break to my birthplace – Valencia.

It was sunny. Oh yes, that, my friend, it was. Armed with my camera and trying to see the city through the eyes of a foreigner (Brian), we went exploring. Here’s some of the shots -

We went atop the Cathedral Tower for views of the city from its highest point.

We went to parks

I went on swings

There are palm trees!

Cacti!

Oranges!

Clementines!

MORE ORANGES!

Vegetables…

Spices…

And the staple of Valencian cooking, shellfish

Some artistic fans

A beautiful brooch (the store was closed, dammit)

Fountains

…. there’s lots more on this Flickr Set of mine, don’t miss out on my ANTM shot (America’s NOT Top Model), the tasteful Xmas decor at Plaza del Ayuntamiento and the shots I took of some buildings. The ironwork on roofs, doors and balconies is pretty impressive. Enjoy!!
