Day 7: Valencia Until 10.30pm (Cycle)

Firstly, a very pleasant cycle was had, which was a variation upon ride I did last year. It was mostly flat, except two steep climbs, especially the final section of the climb to the meteorological station.

Sometime later, I was glad that I left plenty of time to get to the ferry. It was very confusing as to which part of the port the ferry departed. It is both a ferry and freight port, which doesn't help. Google maps sent me on a wild goose chase, even a search of the internet was less than helpful. Fortuitously I eventually came across a ferry sign, which led to another and subsequently many more, until finally I arrived at the terminal with only 50 minutes! to spare before check-in closed at 20.30 for a 22.30 departure. Leaving plenty of time to write this post.

We are due to arrive in Palma at 5.30 AM.
