Valencia

If you ever make it to Spain do not miss to visit the city of Valencia!

A beautiful city with a fantastic old part, great modern architecture, outstanding food, and much more. Also an outstanding place to start cruises in the Mediterranean Sea.

Unfortunately I did not get to the Restaurant JosÃ¨ had recommended to me - but Valencia is full of good restaurants. An I am certainly going to spend some more time there in the future.

I put some pictures up here:

I'm glad you have enjoyed your travel.

I'd go to Span for the food alone. A light salad with cherry tomatoes fried with Chorizo drizzled over the top and served with fresh finger sized fish, seasoned with salt, pepper and Extra Virgin olive oil ...

Yep - the food is good!
But to enjoy it in a nice restaurant overlooking the sea, with some warm sun on your back - that certainly adds to it.

I really hope to make it to Europe some day. I have never been over there!

If you find it to warm and miss the feeling of Newfoundland, the door is always open to you here! 8o)

:-) Would love to visit you and your country some day.

Anytime!

I'd think you'll feel quite at home here. It's all here but whales, glacier break-offs and American sports.
The climate should be quite up to par with what you're used to.
