No post-Christmas blues for U3A Calpe travel!! First stop on Wednesday morning was the Tutankhamun Exhibition in the Bombas Gens Art and Exhibition Centre on the outskirts of Valencia: a warehouse that has been converted to house Immersive exhibitions and this was one of their most impressive, to date.
After over 90 minutes travelling through ‘the Valley of the Kings’ the 16 members were transferred to Valencia.
They asked for a central location with time to explore and that is what they got!!!!
This was the first ‘overnighter’ of the year and the hotel, the Venecia Plaza Central was in the Ajuntament Square. The hotel proved to be a very popular choice.
Wednesday afternoon and evening and Thursday morning gave the visitors free time to explore the many interesting buildings which surround this now pedestrianised plaza, meet old friends or simply relax and watch the world go by, while enjoying the winter sunshine on one of the numerous terraces.
Our next outing is to the Benidorm Palace on 7th February. The show is ‘Aire‘. €75 includes: Show, Palace Plus dinner and transport. We have only a few spaces left on this trip : shirley-spain@hotmail.com to book or for further information.
Thanks to Carole G and Hilary H for the photos!
