Our friend, Julia (Mama Noël), is always looking out for us. Knowing that children love anything that includes swimming, she told us about a community pool with slides that is not too far from Valencia.
We have resisted the urge to go to a big, commercial water park partly because of the high-cost (exaggerated with the exchange rate) but also because they aren't necessarily Spanish. There are big, commercial water parks all over the US.
This was a mini-water park at community pool prices. And *BONUS* ... they let you bring food inside!!
We put on our suits, packed a lunch, took the train to Torrent, and met Julia, Juan, Livia, and Livia's friend at the pool. The kids swam all day. The adults swam a little, read a little, and napped a lot.
We had a picnic lunch and then celebrated Julia's birthday with ice cream sandwiches (that Julia brought in her cooler).
