Photos

I´ve logged on to internet in a cybercafé to book a flight home for New Year and I´ll use the opportunity to upload some pictures for you guys! So let me show you some pictures that go with the story of a couple of days ago, which was about last weeked.

Below you see that the mandarines are starting to get orange! There are mandarine trees everywhere in Valencia, really everywhere, and you can just get the fruit right of the trees! The bright light on the picture is the November sun! In the early afternoon, it is still warm enough to walk around in a t-shirt!
This is Ayora park, the cute little park near my home I´ve told you about. And these are two cute little gentlemen walking around in it!More Ayora park...And this is the America´s Cup Port I´ve told you about! The boat you see is the one used for tourist trips around the port. This is the exposition of miniature boats, all the yachts that have won the America´s Cup in the past 200 years. Really beautiful, and probably very exciting for boat fans. This is one of the constructions docks. As I went to the port in the late afternoon, the sun was already quite low, creating this beautiful warm light everywhere.
This is not a miniature! This is a life size boat, of the antique Pirates-of-the-Carribean kind!

And this is one of the docks where they are building the boats that will compete in 2007! When I went to take a peek, the french team was just returning from a practice and they were unloading their boat. I don´t remember which country this black boat is for.




Anyway, so these are some pics of last weekend.. I´ll try to keep you posted, but I´ll be internetless at least until newyear... very inconvenient, but well, I´ll manage. I´m going to go home and cook dinner now, cause I´m starting to get hungry!
