The town and marina has hosted weekend several major events such as Americas cup and Formule 1 race

Sailing forward to Valencia today. A distance of 90 Nm so we start Kl. 6:00 so that we get the sunrise with us today. Catrine, Ketil, Simen, Martine and Stine has booked a flight to Barcelona in the summer to visit us. But the schedule says we do not arrive on time, so why take the train to Valencia instead. They come August weekend 1st so now there are only 2 days left.
Passing Benidorm along the way, and it's not hard to see where the income weekend of the city comes from. This is a tourist resort with large T. Almost like a mini Manhattan. Passing Marina Greenwich actually lie on 0 meridian. And voila, we are back for a moment on bailing annual longitude. Rounds Cabo de la Nao in fine Antaris set (engine) and after about 30 Nm, we are back on the west excellent longitude. GPS is soon exhausted. Arriving Valencia on afternoon and moored in Marina Real Juan Carlos 1.Til change this is a marina that operates with prices that seem more normal, Euro 24.20 per. night
The town and marina has hosted weekend several major events such as Americas cup and Formule 1 races. And there is nothing to fault at the service here, just a pity that the toilet and shower weekend sections are under construction. We pick the new crew of the train station weekend at night and suddenly we are 7 pieces on board. But everyone finds themselves comfortable on board. We have purchased additional fans to improve air circulation below deck, so it becomes a little more comfortable at night. But is not that simple when sea temperature is above 28 degrees. In my view, Valencia is a modern city compared to Barcelona weekend or Madrid. A comment from a taxi driver that Valencia is not a city but only have 1 mil. residents are not commented on our side.

Saturday we take a trip to the aquarium, L Oceanografic. This is one of Europe's largest, which has a section that shows Arctic walrus and belugas. A giant tank with tunnel where our own aquarium in Bergen sure has taken the idea from. We have also seen aquarium in Barcelona. With Valencia is my favorite, can not recommend it strongly.
