Just based on the cab ride from the Airport, what a spectacular city!
There were some BMW Oracle guys holding signs at the airport but we didn't figure that was for us. Took a cab instead. Got a great tour of the city center and some of the fabulous archtecture! Wow!
Oh yeah, there were fireworks too, probably not for us either!
More Manana! (After some sleep!)
And more when I start getting catched up: From Valencia Yacht Management:
Official opening ceremony
Sunday 7th February sees the official opening ceremony of the 33rd America’s Cup, starting at 1300hrs in the heart of Port America’s Cup, by the Veles et Vents building.
The opening ceremony will include the draw for which side the competing yachts have to enter the start area for Race 1, with the time gun scheduled for 1000hrs Monday.
A huge crescendo is promised with a mascletá, a local celebration of firecrackers with the largest reckoned to be 750kilos of gunpowder.
And from 1400hrs the America’s Cup will have the UN GRAIN for Haiti – the cooking of a giant paella with the proceeds all going to relieve suffering in Haiti.
