Hi, m name is Geri - I am taking this tour in Oct. (9th) with my husband Albert. I am curious about the weather, I've heard some chances of rain in late October - as in thunderstorms!! Also curious about how large the group will be and interested in hearing from fellow-travelers before the trip. We are signed up for the optional trip to Toledo and looking forward to it!! We also booked an ext to travel from Barcelona back to Madrid and on to Burgos for a couple of days at the end of the tour.
