Spain and Portugal are the kinds of places where you'll find yourself saying, "Can we stay just a little longer?" An afternoon spent wandering the colorful gardens of Pena Palace, a leisurely meal in a Spanish plaza that turns into an evening of lively conversation, the sound of Fado music filling a Lisbon restaurant, or a glass of local w**e overlooking the terraced vineyards of Portugal's Douro Valley will draw you in and make you want to stay for a while.
That's not even including the sights you've probably been dreaming about for years, like Barcelona's extraordinary architecture, the Alhambra in Granada, and the historic streets of Seville.
Spring is a wonderful time to visit, with comfortable weather and plenty of opportunities to soak up the atmosphere. We've shared a few of our favorite ways to experience Spain and Portugal in our latest blog. Take a look at the link in the comments, and start imagining where you'd spend that extra afternoon!
