Last Leg of Europe

It was a short drive for us from Salamanca to Madrid.  About 3 hours because we took the no-toll roads.  It was a nice drive and took us right into the hustle of the city.  We unloaded our packs at our new place and returned the rental.  We were able to walk from the rental return (train station) back to our apartment.  Our apartment was in a great location and we were able to walk most places.
By this leg of our journey our exploring muscle was a little worn out, but we managed to hone in on the key things we wanted to see.

Salamanca, Spain


Salamanca from the distance


After enjoying Granada we headed north to a city called Salamanca.  We had a rental car so it wasn't planes, trains, and automobiles this time......just automobile.

Sangria, Please!

We had another whirlwind departure of bus, train, and car.  We left Premia de Dalt early, caught the first bus down the hill, then the train into Barcelona, then picked up our rental car.  With 4 of us, renting a car in each country has been the best option.

Capital of Catalonia

We left Perigueux on a Saturday morning.  Drove to Toulouse, dropped our rental and caught the train. Made it to Barcelona. Hopped on another train to the little town where our rental was located.  Phew.  Long day.

Pretty drive through France
