Which one is correct?

[ssasy]

Hi all,
I am trying to write a story for my college composition class and since English is my second language I need a little help.
Which one of these is the proper way to say: Y sintieron una sensación de alivio al ver que....

1. And they felt a relief sensation to see that.....
2. And they felt a sense of relief to see that....

I would really appreciate it you help me out with this little doubt.

Number 2 is correct, but you should not start a sentence with "And"

2. And they felt a sense of relief to see that....

Thank you very much for your prompt response. That's what I thought but somebody else told me that I should use # 1

It is #2 -

"a relief sensation" - does not make sense.

Tell that to Hemingway!!

It is good to know the rules, though. It is better to know when to break them.

Ricardo900, the sentence does not start with and. I was also told during my high school years that one should not start a sentence with and or but and some other words that I can't remember. However, this teacher says that it is ok to start a sentence with any of this words or whatever you want. Apparently he doesn't care.
