Day 77, 78, 79 & 80 Valencia has been a city unlike any other on this trip so far. It was a completely different experience for us being a city filled with firsts. It was our first apartment, first birthday (well, birthday party), first DVD player and of course first Tomato festival. However after having been through it all, I sincerely hope that this will not be my first and last trip to Valencia. Upon arriving to Valencia we made out way to our street an...

Day 75 & 76 Granada, the city of tapas with beer, giant castles and natural hot springs was city number 2 in Spain, a pit stop on our way to Valencia. This city didn't start off all to well either, as not only did I have no ipod to listen to on the long bus (had to deal with Spanish radio), but about 100m from the bus stop, our bus breaks down. Any normal person would think, "oh, only 100 meters away, you could walk the rest of the way". But, unfortunately...

Day 73 & 74 Seville, our first taste of Espanol was a very traditional town for us as we sampled tapas, checked out flamenco shows and saw the historical sights on offer.  After arriving in the town late at night again, we soon came to realize we had no idea where our accomodation was. Asking a policeman and some locals on the street, we eventually made our way to a place on the other side of town, that had the same name as ours. However once we went insid...

Day 70, 71 & 72 Lagos, the Ios of Portugal, beaches, bars and a whole lot of Aussies. Im in a bit of a rush here, so we are just going for highlights. First highlight was actually a bit of a lowlight as we ended up sleeping through our alarm in Lisbon and only were able to catch a late bus, losing a day on the beach. What made it even worse was that Wazzy actually turned off the alarm so he could sleep in, we were pissed, but we have since forgiven him. T...

Hey guys. Sorry i have been so behind with the blogs, a little bit of trouble involving my phone, water and a toilet bowl has held me back. Will try and catch up as soon as I can so expect to read a lot in the next couple of days. Day 67, 68 & 69 Lisbon, the city of castles, tarts and pubs was a great place to spend 3 days in Portugal. After a 4 hour bus ride down from Porto, we climbed yet another hill to our place and met Aidan and Zac again after a long ...
