No, we drive via the Northsea coast to Omaha Beach, then to the Bay of Biscay into Spain, via Bilboa to Burgos to somewhere south of Toledo. And from there to Malaga. And the way back we went to other side of Madrid (closest we came to Madrid was about 100km) to Andorra.
Especially the bit to and from Burgos was booooooooring (I thought the Netherlands was flat, but this was worse...), and I cannot see another olive tree without losing my mind...
I must say, I really did like Nevada, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico a lot better! (I've lived in Roswell, NM for a year as an exchange student and my parents came over at the end of it. We took a car trip from there to San Diego via Colorado, Utah and Arizona)
