Do not do the south of Spain in June unless you like really, really, _stinkin’_ hot weather. We’re talking 90 degree plus. Hell, I was in Seville in mid-May this year and it was nearly 100… and that’s typical of the climate there apparently. (I’m from Maryland, so I’m used to it, but all my Irish friends were _dying_.) ---

Per email from father this morning, the trip is going to be in 200 **5** , not this year. ---

We’re going to France in June '04, and I bought cheapo tickets on British Airways back in November. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/plan-my-european-vacation/223111.md?page=1)
