So many people go on holiday, enjoy the sun, enjoy the food but learn nothing about where they have been. It would make little difference if the aeroplane instead of going to Spain landed in Greece, apart from the food.
On one of our trips to Portugal, we drove across Spain, Burgos, Valladolid and then off the motorway for a break in a little town Tordesillas. Nothing special, narrow streets with high buildings so cool compared to being on the motorway. We bought some wine and went on our way. We gave a bottle to our Portuguese friends which immediately led to a history lesson.
The twom is famous for being the place where the Kings of Spain and Portugal divided up the world. If you want to learn a bit more here`s a link to Wikipedia in English.

Have a good day, take care and make the most of the weather.
