Around February we are trying to take a ten-day trip to Barcelona. We are thinking though that the entire trip won’t be spent in Barcelona. I lived in Cadiz for 6 months so we had thought about going and visiting my family there, or perhaps taking a train to Madrid and splitting the time between Barcelona & Madrid.

Any suggestions?

I think it would be a good idea to venture over to Madrid.
Ten days is plenty of time. You can either train it, or fly it.

Nothing wrong with splitting your trip between Barcelona or Madrid. You could also do day or overnight trips from Barcelona to places like Figueres and Girona, and San Sebastian would be a good spot for 2 or 3 days.

10 days is a lot in Barcelona and I agree with Cil, a short trip to Madrid would be a great way to break it up!
