Cordoba to Valencia

The Langfords were up and away early for the long drive to Valencia. Robert had a very leisurely morning, while Gail came with me to navigate the return of our hire car. It proved stressful as the hotel car park exited in an unknown street, but we were soon back on track. We made the station without further incident, but finding the Avis drop-off area was complicated by very poor signage.
Eventually sorted after much stress, we took a taxi back to the hotel.
We met a relaxed Robert for a couple of trips around a Cordoba on tourist buses and a late lunch in an excellent Asian inspired restaurant. With so many attractions closed on Monday we killed a little more time in the hotel bar before our evening train.
The train trip was excellent with the train regularly hitting 300 kph, while we had a few drinks from the restaurant carriage next door. Nice views of the countryside flew by and certainly a great way to travel.
