If you don't change after midnight, it is one travel day.

So READ: you change next day, use new train (and again one of the most expensive and hard to get) so any train that 2nd day needs a new travelday. Can cut the cost a lot-but not travelt ime to use train as far as Port BOU=just over border, local rodalies till Bcn-then AVE (hourly)
