<human>: Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?

My wife and I are traveling overseas for the first time, 2-3 week vacation in Spain. Our itinerary looks something like Toledo, Malaga (visiting friends), Barcelona, and hopefully Northern coast, like San Sebastián/ Bilbao. I'm a black guy (light- skinned, ppl always think I'm mixed), my wife is white, we're late 20's/ 30, working professionals, "neighborhood people". I guess I think of us as plain ol Cali Kids. Our best US vacations have consisted of finding the local gems for food/ drink, some fitness (hiking, beach, sailing), events like concerts or sport events... And then probably more food and drinks. (To be honest some of our best nights have been around striking up convo w our bartenders or other guests at bars, and making a night of it. We love a good cocktail).

So a friend (Mexican) said I should prep myself for some racism... Actually his words were Spain is "super- racist". Now that's a broad generalization that's probably misleading, but did get me wondering what exactly to expect. Some odd looks, an extra security check here and there doesn't bother me at all. if anything, that's a opportunity to prove myself a good customer, guest, foreigner, whatever it may be. I like to think I'm a pretty respectful person.

So, what are we in store for? looks? Denied service?  Any areas, situations we should avoid (particularly concerned about nightlife)? I took Spanish for 4 years in school, and can carry a basic convo, FWIW. Wife speaks a bit of French.

Thanks! Hoping to follow- up this trip with Thailand next year, followed by Costa Rica, and then more Europe.
