VERY inexperienced travelers. Having more time than money.

from Phila, going to France about 26 September to 16 October (2 persons)


the cheapest fare I could find was on Lufthansa website:
AC345
LH5511
LH5502
AC344

Phila - Toronto - Paris - then train to Bordeaux.


return:

train to Barcelona - then, Toronto & Phila

total $729.35 per person, all taxes incl.

What I like about this is:
_ we are interested in sightseeing a few days in Barcelona. [wrong season to visit Northern Europe]
_ the departure/arrival times are not too early in the days.

Any better suggestion, please ?
