Einion took just three days to travel from the north to the south of Spain, September 3rd to 5th. He roosted on the evening of the 2nd on the northern Spanish coast, 20 miles east of Santander and flew the following day to the Rioja area of northern Spain famous for the red wines. By nightfall the following day he had passed just to the east of Madrid and spent the evening in a remote area 120 miles west of Valencia.

By the evening of September 5th he had reached just west of Granada and just 26 miles north of the Costa del Sol coast with Malaga just to the south west of him. I wonder whether he got a cheap late deal?
