Biking to Oropesa

Biking along the Valencian coastline


The giant tunnel that Tobin and I raced through

Hanging out on the lifeguard chairs outside the restaurant in Oropesa
This morning we went to the beach that was right at our hotel.  Our balcony actually looked out over the beach and had its own hammock.  At the beach we played soccer, swam out very far because it didn't get deep for a long time and ran along the shoreline.  In the afternoon we went on a 6 KM bike ride to a town called Oropesa. There we had a yummy seafood dinner with a fresh fish platter.  On the way back home from the bike ride there was a very, very long tunnel that Tobin and I raced through and I won!  Also, the whole bike path was along the ocean with great views and old stone towers.  Also, Mom and Tobin had biked home very fast and Dad was about 30 minutes behind me taking pictures of graffiti and I was biking looking at the ocean and not looking ahead of me and so I accidentally biked down the bank into the bushes and trees.  I cut the inside of my arm very badly and my bike was stuck in the trees and bushes :(.  Luckily, Tobin biked back really fast to see what was taking me so long and helped me get home :).  Back at our hotel room we just hung out until bed time.
