Spain Day Four


For our last day we decided to take an open top bus tour of Valencia.  It was a really good way to see a lot of sights, and a lot less tiring than pushing a stroller all over the city.

We took a break from the bus tour and took the kids to the Gulliver park.  It is a big sculpture based on the story Gulliver's Travels, with lots of slides and places for kids to climb.



It was hot at the park.  Collin was really tired out after that.


Our next stop on the tour was the Plaza de la Reina.  It was right in the heart of the oldest part of Valencia.  It was a great atmosphere.  We loved looking at all the beautiful old buildings.  The kids were not loving the buildings so much, but we had enough snacks to keep them happy for a while.















After spending a few hours at the Plaza it was time to head back to the hotel.




This is the hotel we stayed at.  They were in the process of painting the outside


The hotel had a pool on top of the roof
