My husband and I (late 50s) just booked our flight to Spain for late September. I've put together the following itinerary and welcome any input/comments/suggestions. How does the flow look? Is the time in each stop enough, too little, too much? Interested in suggestions for hotels/rentals (I've made refundable reservations but am open to change; trying to go low budget), restaurants (happy to spend more here as we are foodies), and things to do (though I do have a list of the "biggies"). Thank you in advance!
