Upcoming Adventures

Will be going to Spain Aug.31-Sept. 7. So excited! Especially since roundtrip airfare from Orange County was less than $300! HECK YES.
I'm landing in Madrid and want to visit Toledo and Valencia while there. Any suggestions on other places I should visit? Or advice as to how to get around (trains/buses)? I would very much appreciate any tips anyone has.

Oh, and most importantly, any one down to come with? Currently, I'm going it alone, which I don't mind, but it's always cool to have a travel partner. :D

P.S. I know I suck with the blogging because I just realized I never blogged about Barcelona, Madrid, Paris, Amsterdam, OR Prague the last time I was in Europe. Whups, my bad, if any one has any questions regarding those places, feel free to ask!
