Would love to go there sometime though. We may be having a couple of our past exchange daughters visit us in Barcelona, Gabby from Poland, and Milena from Italy. They are checking their schedules and will let us know by the end of the month. I'm sure we will be busy in the Barcelona area. We only had 2 days in Barcelona on the last trip in 2008, so we are looking forward to seeing more this trip. Should be a great time with the LUG group.

It is a wonderful place. The surrounding countryside with its white villages is one of the most beautiful parts of Spain. But it is far from Barcelona, more than 800 km. As far as getting there, you have two options: drive from Barcelona--but count on it taking all day. Most of the drive will be on motorways, but the last part will be on mountain roads. Another option is to fly from Barcelona to Malaga, and either rent a car or take a bus from there (about 70 km). Forget trains. Spain's very good high-speed network does a great job of covering the main cities but out-of-the-way places like Ronda are not part of that network.
