Most people like Barcelona a lot better than Madrid, but for me, it was the opposite. 

My son is Luka Modric fan (the soccer player) and to see his pure happiness and excitement seeing Real Madrid stadium was priceless. I captured some artistic shots so he can frame them for his room.

We added Toledo to our itinerary out of the blue, and all of us were amazed by the small medieval town, which was once the capital of Spain. Quite cool.

Barcelona's architecture and all the balconies add quite a bit of style and uniqueness. 

Even though I am an Artist, I was not aware of how big Gaudí is in Barcelona.For his time, he was a really amazing architect, even beyond our time.

I also was not aware of how many Roman remains there are throughout Spain. 

Seville was very much of a surprise as well. With the unique architecture mixed between Spain and Morocco, it ended up as my favorite.

We all learned geography in school, but many of us forget most. I am sure one of them - bye school, bye knowledge lol

So to learn, like it's for the first time, how close Africa (another dream of mine for 30 + years) is to Spain, mind-blowing and quite tempting to detour, lol.

All in all, Spain is great, and I would go back to explore more of the small towns and northern parts of the country.
