I will start by saying that we do not plan every detail for our trips, do not take tours and often leave a little room for a change in itinerary but our upcoming Portugal and Spain trip is a bit unplanned. Delta moved up our return flight from Paris which cancelled our Lisbon to Paris so now we need to figure out how we are getting from point A to point B.
I figured this would take an hour or two and we would need some Spanish snacks to make it though this tedious task. Mike picked up some chorizo, rosemary olive oil bread, olives, and some Spanish cheeses and we put together our dinner.
With four guide books in front of us, some scratch paper and a bottle of good Spanish wine we got to work sketching out an initial itinerary. We think we had a good plan in place with where we would be on which days and how we would see the cities we wanted to see.
The wine of choice was a 2007 Rioja from Baron De Barbon
Mike called Delta and was able to make a few changes to our return and rerouted us through Amsterdam on the way home instead of Paris and we keep our business class seats. Now don’t go thinking we are spending major $$$$ on this because we used miles for these business class seats and there is NO WAY I was going to give these up. Mike and I have worked hard to earn those miles and use them to our utmost advantage, he didn’t travel every week for 13 years so Delta could mess with those miles!
The countdown is on! We leave the 19th and I can not wait ![]()
