Day 7

We left the hotel at 7 am this morning to take the train to Valencia. We stopped in Madrid to get on another plane. I did some school work on the train and tried to get some sleep. We finally got to Valencia around 3-3:30 and headed straight to the hotel. We got to rest for about an hour and then we headed to the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias. It was absolutely gorgeous! Before this museum, Valencia didn’t have many visitors. Now, many people come to visit Valencia. The architect, Coronado, had a thing for eyes, so one of the buildings was shaped like an eye. The eye is actually able to blink too. The opera house is the most expensive building in the complex. This complex also has an open air club called Umbracle. You are able to go kayaking in the water there. The tour was so fascinating! After the tour, we went to dinner at Le Favole. We went to bed early because we were exhausted.
