We departed by bus to the Lyon airport which took 1 hour and 45 minutes. From there we flew to Madrid via Lisbon, Portugal for the Southern Spain portion of our trip. After spending 4 days in Madrid we went to Toledo, stopped in Cordoba to see La Mezquita (another Wonder of the World), Sevilla, Arcos de la Frontera that included a day driving through Andalucía’s white hill towns, Tarifa & a day in Tangers, Morocco, a stop in Gibraltar, UK on our way to Nerja, then on to  Granada & La Alhambra – which was one of the runner ups for the New 7 Wonders of the World –  then to Chiva & Buñol for La Tomatina with the grand finale in Barcelona. We ended up there for 4 days which was never our intention, however, when you use points to fly you’re at the airlines mercy. My best piece of advice is to “Save Barcelona for last.” It was wonderful!
