Vacations that is!

It’s taken a while to get to the end of our 6 week Southern Europe Adventure, but finally here is the last 3 days!

Although we love trains and we were going to take the fast train from Barcelona back to Madrid where we started our trip, Jim decided differently.

I feel he was not ready for our adventure to be over, so we rented a car and drove from Barcelona to Zaragoza.

We explored, walked, ate, drank and enjoyed.

We sauntered through and climbed up churches.

Right outside our hotel was a medieval/ Renaissance fair. I’ve been to them before but not in a city that is medieval!

Then we drove to the Madrid Airport and my job was to point out sights and stuff to do. So I pointed out piles of stone that was once a castle. There were lots of castles at one time. There were also giant skinny bulls here and there. And we stopped in a small village that was a town that is known for its witches. We saw no witches.

It was a great end to a fantastic trip! We loved every little bit of it. 

We are fortunate, but travel can be affordable. I did it when I did not make much money. We fly economy, and we stay in cheaper hotels/pensions.

I never and still don’t have or lived expensively. My money went to saving for travel…and emergencies. I met someone who also loves travel.

If you have any questions, need advice on cheap travel, let me know!

Thank you so much for going on yet another journey with MY GNOME LITTLE WORLD!
