La Font Salada


On January 4th, Lucia, Hugo, Guillem and the Tezcans went to an authentic Valencian restaurant in the little village of Font Salada of Oliva-Pego, about 10 km. south of Gandia. The usual road to the village was damaged by the floods in October, so we had to find a different route, which took us some maneuvering. It was all the worth waiting because the food was delicious and the environment was pleasant with fresh air and the view of thermal lake. At the edge of a national park, this village is known for this thermal and medicinal water spring, hence, is called Font Salada - salty lake.

We didn't but some others actually took a dip while we were there.


Because it took us so long to find the restaurant, Hugo was again late to distribute the Three Kings Day costumes for the team. When we arrived at the Dulcesol, Hugo met some anxious parents waiting, but his broad smile and easy-going mannerism make it hard to get upset with him, so it all worked out just fine at the end...
