Spain and Portugal, April 2006

Over a period of two weeks, I was traveling across Portugal and Spain.  For a good part of the trip, I was traveling with a mate Christian Lewcock.

This is where the journey started.  We flew into Lisboa and stayed a week in Portugal.

Madrid

We travelled by train from Portugal to Madrid on a what should have been an 10 hour journey. It ended up being 12 hours.  This was the first time and probably only time, I travelled in a sleeper car.  I had the top bunk.  It would have been fine if it was not for a loose screw that was rattling around whenever the train was going up and down hills.  It was like Chinese water torture.
