Spain (Part 1)
We left the UK very excited to start what would be a month long road trip through Spain and Portugal. We landed in Barcelona, rented our vehicle and headed to the town of Besalu. We walked around the town, got an espresso and admired the Spanish architecture. It was here we had our first taste of delicious (very affordable) Spanish wine. The next day, we made our way to Vielha, which has more of a ski town vibe as it is in the mountains. The drive there steadily accumulated more snow. We went out for dinner in town and quickly learned that if we were going to get served, we were needed to be a bit more aggressive. The town was packed as it was ski season, but in general, it was off season tourist travel in Spain. I should also note that culturally, restaurants might not even open until 8, but most people arrived closer to 9 for their meal, which was typically a couple of tapas. Next town was Sos del Rey ...
