MAVERICK ROVER WORLD Blog Post #82 PARIS, France Paris Metro Definitely a life saver since we are convinced that we probably spent 20% of our time underground in the massive metro system traveling in and around Paris.

MAVERICK ROVER WORLD Post #6 April 27, 2018 Valencia, Spain Another door to contemplate Most mornings we go to the outdoor gym area for some self-imposed yoga, some sit ups and several sets of upper body workout on the machines, then back to the apartment for breakfast. On an afternoon walk from our apartment we walked along the Turia Riverbed Gardens, as we often do. Every time is a new experience. This day we explored the: Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias (City of Arts and Sciences) which houses the Oceanografic, the largest of its kind in Europe with marine animals from the seven seas. Hemisferic, has a heavy lidded eye structure as its surface, it includes an IMAX theatre.
