2 muppets in a motorhome: La Florida to Barcelona

The Return Journey -12 Sept 2012

Day 1 La Florida to Valencia

We left our bungalow at about lunch time, had a 3 hour drive to Valencia, when we arrived dropped mum off at her hotel then carried on to the site Camping Coll vert. We spent the evening round the site which was very noisy.

Day 2 Valencia

Today we all caught the bus from the camp site into Valencia centre when we arrived we took a big bus tour which showed us round the city, one part was the old town and one part was the very modern part of the city. We had lunch in a little Spanish cafe vino tinto and small sandwiches, Later we had Valencian Paella which is a tradition in this part of Spain then back to the site.

Day 3 Valencia

We went back in to Valencia today and had a tour round the cathedral, walking round we saw two Goya paintings. My mum and me climbed to the top of the tower which was 206 steps to the top. The view from the top was incredible. We had Wok to Walk for Tea.

Day 4 Valencia to Barcelona

We set off for Barcelona at about 10.00am it was a 5 hour drive before we reached Mataro a little town just outside Barcelona where we were staying, again we dropped mum off at her hotel before heading to the site Camping Barcelona, spent the evening round the site overlooking the med.

Day 5 Barcelona

Today we had an early start 8.45am !!!! We caught the train in to the centre of Barcelona to Plaza de Catalunya, Here we bought our big bus tour tickets. Before we went on the tour we had a coffee in a little place on La Rambla. The tours of Barcelona are amazing with lots to see throughout the city. After we had finished the tours we had our evening meal on La Rambla watching the world go by before heading back to the Site.

Day 6 Barcelona

Went to see the Sagrada Familia which is Gaudi`s Dream, this church is still under construction and has been for 100 years. This building is breath taking. Then back to the campsite for a BBQ on my mums last night.
