well, i've also been for several times in spain since its my neighbour country, although i havent visited all the places i wanted, i've been in Vigo, S.Compostela,Coruna, Barcelona and Madrid(only the airport) and for me spain its a very similar country comapared to portugal, therefore its like to be in the same country visiting new places, the city that i most love is definitely Barcelona, its incredible the life we can feel through out that city, something that i had never seen on any other city.

Sorry Dixie!
To tell the truth when I saw the name of your country I always wanted to ask you where is Catalunya located! Shame on me! Now I know where is it!!! That's why I said nothing abt my trip!
What's a pity! Thanks to my poor knowledges I lost opportunity to meet you!!!
Are you living in Barcelona?

I liked very much port. Gothic estate also looks beatiful.
I stayed at the Santa Susanna. So had to use train to get to Barcelona, abt hour by train and then metro. Not very convient but interesting. :)
Also I visited Tossa de Mar.

well, it seems like there is many people here loving the idea of holidays in spain, and i must say that you are absolutely right :D . Now talking more serious and to answered the question if i had already been in IBIZA, NO, unfortunately i've never been there but its the kind of place where i really would like to go one day, and yes its a island for big parties with almost all the biggest clubs in europe, although you must be prepared to pay a lot of money to enter those places, so if you really want to go there one day take your wallet fool of money :mrgreen: . I would say that for me it would be more recommended "Palma de Maiorca", the offer its much wide than in IBIZA and therefore its easier to find nice places fro affordable prices, sorry if im wrong but its the idea i have from what i've heard.

Just a week ago I came back from my trip to Spain. Unfortunately, the day before going there, I caught a severe cold :-( , so I didn’t see much of those places that I planned to see in Madrid. I really wanted to go to Prado Museum, see Picasso’s Guernica, see Madrid’s magnificent cathedrals, palaces, and parks… Oh well, I guess I will need to go there again some day
