ADVENTURES, CHALLENGES, AND INSIGHTS OF A COUPLE IN EARLY RETIREMENT
After two years of roving retirement, we finally made it to Valencia. This city has lots of historic and UNESCO sites to visit as well as their newest attraction, The City of Arts and Sciences, which is truly spectacular.
Our visit to Valencia wouldn’t be complete without a thorough evaluation of all of the culinary specialties available in this unique city. In addition to a central market there is the unique Paella Valenciana and Agua de Valencia, yummy.
The next stop on our roving retirement Spain & Portugal tour was Tarragona, a bit southwest of Barcelona. After a little research, I found that Tarragona has Roman Ruins that are listed by UNESCO and I’m all over that. In addition, there is a small beach town a little south of Tarragona called Salou that we check out.
Neither Mike nor I had ever visited Barcelona before so we figured we would try to see as much as we could in the week we were there. But we also made time to wander in many interesting neighborhoods.
Our roving retirement has finally gotten back on track in Barcelona Spain. We spent a wonderful week absorbing Barcelona, a city that neither of us has been to before.
