Google Transit comes to Valencia

Google have launched Transit for Valencia, It's a nifty bit of kit that allows you to plan your route around the city by public transport. You simply type in your departure and arrival points and it tells you how far you will have to walk to the nearest bus or metro stop and the same for your destination - all very impressive we think!

A flat for sale in the heart of the city of Valencia

Here is a great opportunity to buy a lovely flat just off the Cathedral Square in the heart of the historic centre of Valencia. This is a three bedroom, first floor flat in a pedestrian street close to the Plaza de la Virgen. The photos do not do this flat justice! It has three good sized bedrooms, large lounge, kitchen and nice bathroom. The unique thing about this flat is that it has a central courtyard which gives the flat a lot of light(and adds a lot of space too!) only 200,000 euros or near offer!

Bomberos in Valencia City

RUB A DUB DUB ….
Walking from Serranos to Plaza de Manises the other day I came across a protest from the city’s trusty bomberos. I wondered if I set my frock alight that maybe the calendar guy from June last year might just come over and put it out with warm-soapy-expensive- sweet-scenty-oily-bathie-type-stuff? After all, I pay my taxes…..
ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME?
When I took this picture the bombero staring straight at my camera turned his board around. Was this a secret protest? But, hey, I can keep a secret – to the grave - or did he figure I looked suspicious? Was I with the ‘Keep Water For Bathing’ lobby? Send ‘Junio‘ round and we can talk about it …I‘m open to reason, to suggestion ….. a compromise may be reached. Then we’ll see who supports who around here. You run my bath and I‘ll run yours. Know what I‘m saying? There’s always a price.
