Transportation from Granada to Toledo
I'm trying to figure out the best way to get from Granada to Toledo in mid April. I understand it's unlikely that the high speed train from Granada will be up and running by then. Is there an option that is faster or involves fewer transfers than taking the bus from Granada to Antequera, switching to a train to Madrid and then switching to another train to Toledo?
How long is the drive from Granada to Toledo? Is it scenic? Is there an interesting halfway point to stop for lunch?

We'll be traveling on a Wednesday so it looks like driving is the best option.
Is the E-902 to the E-5 the most scenic route? I love the idea of stopping to see the windmills in Consuegra. Is Jaen worth a stop as well?
Google maps suggests the drive is almost 4 hours. Does that sound right?

Almagro has the historic open-air theater, Corral de Comedias, which is its main attraction (www.ciudad-almagro.com). It's an interesting village for walking around and taking a break.
You can also stop in Manzanares El Real and visit the 15th century Renaissance fortress/castle (www.manzanareselreal.org/tourism/).
