Spanish Splendour : Valencia
Thank goodness it's the weekend so that I can upload the pictures taken in Valencia! Valencia produces lots of oranges and paella originates from this city and is the home to the Holy Grail (if you have read or watched The Da Vincci Code, you will know what I'm talking about!) Without further delay, here are the pictures!
De Way enjoying the ham and cheese sandwich I made. Tasted ok, right?

Interesting concept, isn't it?
