Going to Spain in 2 Weeks !!!!!

I can't wait. We will start in Madrid, of course, go to the Segovia area, staying in a Pueblo called Domingo Garcia and then to the Salamanca area and staying in a Parador near there. Any suggestions on places to see or things to do along the way. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Karen!!!!

Ok ok I'm dreaming. Take the bus, there are some great places along the way. Get a "Lets Go" book, and pick out places you may want to stop and visit. You can even book a room ahead of time by phoning. That way, when your in the particular village or town, you have a place to say. No fuss or worry. Have fun.

Not too many people mention Cadiz...LA TACITA DE PLATA! It's quite a beautiful city, if you look at it from the mountain, the purity of its' whiteness clashes with the deep indigo blue of its' seas! Man, am i gettin'poetic or what?

I have some good notes on restaurants/tapas for Segovia and Salamanca from my trip there last fall. I promise to bring in tomorrow and post at lunch.

If you've never traveled to Spain before you're in for a real treat.

Thanks for all the info. Can't wait for my trip. Any more thoughts are greatly appreciated. Karen!

Hola Kipper,
Segovia and Salamanca are two of my favorite SPanish cities. I was just there this past December and enjoyed them thoroughly.
When you visit Segovia be sure to stop for lunch at the Mesón Cándido, you can't miss it because it is just besides the Roman Aqueduct.They are famous for their Cochinillo asado if you like pork this is a heavenly dish, the pig is so well cooked that they cut it with a plate!
Across from the Mesón is the tourist office. It is worth going there because they have a great map that costs less than 1 Euro and they give you a timetable of the Monumentos, places to see and museums: the Alcazar that looks like Cinderella's Castle in disney World, the Cathedral and not to be missed the Casa de Antonio Machado!

Salamanca is more than a University town, this year it happens to be celebrating its designation of being Ciudad Europea de la Cultura a wonderful recognition of Salamanca as one of europe's finest cultural center. There there is so much to see, and most of which has already been documente here at MM's Salamanca threads.

Hope you have a wonderful trip, Karen!
