Spain - May 07, 2026 to May 28, 2026
This year we decided not to go to Spain during the first two weeks of April as we had done the past two years.
Rather, after 'tax season' and before my knee replacement currently expected mid-June we booked a three-week trip in May.
This year's trip will start just north of Granada, then working west and north through Andalucia and Extremadura before swinging back to Madrid.

We are flying through Montreal, then to Madrid and finally on to Granada where we will pick up our rental car. We will be staying
- 5 nights at Cortijo del Marques north of Granada, where we have stayed three times before, then
- 3 nights at Molina La Nava, near Montero, after which
- 2 nights at Hotel Rural Las Tejuelas, between Valdecaballeros and Guadalupe in Extremadura, where we stayed in 2024, followed by
- 4 nights at Finca El Azahar, near Truillo, and then
- 3 nights at Finca El Cabezo, near San Martin de Trevejo, and finally
- 3 nights at Hotel El Nabia, near Candeleda in the province of Castilla y Leon a bit over two hours west of Madrid's airport
