Steph and I just booked our short 10 day Italy/Spain trip. We're departing Philadelphia on 9/30 at 7pm, arriving in Barcelona the next morning. We'll be staying 2 nights in Barcelona at the Pullman Barcelona Skipper hotel. Next is a travel by rail to Seville where we'll stay 3 nights at NH Collection Sevilla. A short 1 hour flight to Madrid, then another short one to Rome and there we'll be staying 3 nights at Hotel Ariston. This only cost $4000 total for 2 people. Crazy. Bumping up to 1st class would be double the price so I'll just drink a lot on the trans-continental flights.?
I received the phrase book from Elaine. Thank you. I've also downloaded some language videos on You Tube but all of the Italian words are so close to Spanish that I already speak it might be hopeless and I'll stick to English and Spanish.
