The theme park was awesome! It had the highest rollercoaster in Europe and we didn't have to queue more than 5 minutes for a ride. It was also halloween so the whole park was decorated in pumpkins and broomsticks!
Portaventura Theme Park
After 3 days of rollercoasters and rides, we drove down to Valencia, Spain which took around 2.5 hours. We had a couple of nights in Valencia and spent most of our time in the old city.
From Valencia ... we went straight to Grandma and Granddad's house again in Huercal Overa where we spent 3 weeks enjoying southern Spain again. We hosted our friends from Murcia - the Gaileys and also Grandma and Grandad and cousin Ciaran came out for 2 weeks, and Justine Oldham who we spent time with in London came and visited for a few days as well!

Many famous movies have been filmed in Almeria (think Clint Eastwood Good, Bad and the Ugly), and we visited the park for a day.
San Juan and Painting, with Justine Oldham
We really enjoyed our second visit of the Summer to Southern Spain. We got up at 5am on the 1st November to drive the 6 hours to Barcelona. Barcelona was going to be our last stop in Europe, and we were lucky Zoe and Mark and Aunty Linda, Anna and Siena (from Andorra) were coming to spend a few days with us before waving us off on the boat to America!
