Valencia
Another museum this morning, this time the Ceramic Museum. The pottery was kind of interesting, but the outside of the building was more interesting. Then, so we wouldn't be caught out like yesterday, we went to the Central Market to buy some food for lunch before catching the bus to the beach for the afternoon.

The Valencia beach was quite a surprise as it was unbelievably wide and flat. Valencia had been experiencing a lot of unusual afternoon storms and very heavy rain since we had arrived, the skies were darkening and everyone was leaving the beach as we arrived, fortunately though the threat didn't eventuate. This beach was quite different to the others we had visited in that it didn't have huge ugly sky rise buildings along the foreshore, and the restaurant/cafe strip seemed very small compared to others. It appeared to still be waiting for modernisation and hadn't fallen to ugly development ..... yet.
For dinner we made our third trip to an Argentinian steak restaurant. We had tried to get to this place twice before (last night in very heavy rain) only to find it was closed both times. This time though it was open, third time lucky!
