Today we went back to Santa Pola but on an early bus. We managed to attend the museo de la sel (Salt museum).  It was converted into a museum when they stopped using the factory.  Santa Pola is known for the salt it produces. There are salt evaporation ponds known as salines which produces salt even today. We found the museum somewhat interesting considering the topic. You have to take what they displayed  with a grain of salt… Sorry just couldn’t help it.

There were pink flamingos in the abandoned salt pond at the museum which was a nice surprise. (unfortunately all I could get was a far away picture)

We then went to the local aquarium which had a small but interesting collection of fish and other water creatures.  Now I know what my future food will look like before it is served to me.

 

Finally we finished our day by stopping at the Marcado in Gran Alicant a small town on the way home. We picked up groceries and headed home. I thought I would share the grocery bill with you. Can you figure out what we bought and the cost compared to Canada. If you do let me know what you think. Well that’s about it for today.
