Our Trip on the Backroads of Iberia – Portugal and Spain 2019

In May 2019 we took a three-week trip through Portugal and southern Spain.  We started with a visit to Porto in Portugal and then on to Lisbon.  From Lisbon we went to Evora and Merida, Portugal.   Then we traveled overland to Carmona, Spain.   We explored Seville before going on to Ronda.  We visited Cordoba before journeying on to Ubeda.  We traveled overland again to Madrid and explored Segovia.  We ended our trip in Madrid.  We greatly enjoyed the experience.
