Aquarium in Valencia (video)

As I mentioned before my boyfriend, Mike, and I went to Valencia during the long weekend of May. We visited many places and one of them was the Oceanografic (aquarium)! I have made a video of our trip there. I hope you enjoy it...



What kind of animals do you seen in the video? Which is your favorite one?

If you want to learn the names of the animals in English check out these websites:

I thought the aquarium was amazing and my favorite sea animals there were the beluga whale and turtles. Mike really liked the sharks and penguins. We would love to come back and see it again sometime! Have you been to an aquarium before? Have you been to the one in Valencia? Tell me what you thought about it.

  2. Hi Jose- Of course I remember you! Thank you for remembering my parents. They're doing very well and want to come back to Spain again and visit! And yes you're right about me leaving, my last day will be next Tuesday (May 31st)! It's so soon! I'm sorry to hear you did not receive the scholarship but there are many opportunities to travel, just keep looking and talking to people. I have found many opportunities online by looking on Google; searching things like "work abroad USA", "opportunites to work in USA abroad", and "study in USA". I'm sure they have the same thing for other countries as well, you just have to search around and talk to as many people as possible. That's how I got my job here! I just asked everyone possible and one of my Spanish teachers told me about the program.

    I wish the best for you with everything in your future! Thank you for your regards, I will be sure to tell them you said hi.

    Oh and I'm sure Mike will love to hear that you also like the sharks!
