I allowed myself to sleep in till quite late and then sat in a cafe for a few hours enjoying a fresh orange juice and crossiant and working on my Portuguese. Then I had a walk around the city. Considering everyone one I have met has told me Zaragoza is not worth going to, it was very nice. The main attraction, el pilar (the cover picture) was very beautiful and there were a lot of other interesting buildings as well as a little horse statue (see pic). Before Jo...

I wanted to make the most of the day I had in Valencia and luckily I met people who also wanted to do things. One girl found a bike tour for €2 (plus a tip at the end) and after being sent between 2 different shops, all 6 of us were given bikes and we joined the 14- strong tour.

Sadly I have no pictures from today but I will try my best to describe it with words! At 10 I was woken up by the sun rays coming in through the open door.

Back at the hostel I went for a long swim in the pool and had some lunch. At 4 I said bye to my new friends and then took the...

After a 4 hour journey I arrived in Alicante. There were some great views along the way. I then had to take the tram to the hostel. I got a bit lost when I got off and ended up surrounded by bushes. Eventually I found the hostel- right next to the tram stop. It's a very chilled place. I spent the afternoon reading and chatting to some people here. The pool was a nice addition to the hostel. I walked along the beach to Lidl to get some dinner and ending up making...

This morning, after having breakfast (Nicola had her favourite pizza) we walked up to the grounds of the Alhambra. Sadly, there were no tickets for when Nicola was here but I managed to get one for the afternoon. Although luckily we managed to have a bit of a look around and see the amazing views. After doing some souvenir shopping we had an icecream from the oldest icecream shop in Granada. Nicola took the bus to the bus station at 3pm but not before realising...
