Insurance
Check the HTH Worldwide webpage to sign in and be able to access information about your health coverage while in Spain. Please pay special attention to Section 8 (General Policy Exclusions) which states that
 
“Unless specifically provided for elsewhere under the Policy, the Policy does not cover loss caused by or resulting from, nor is any premium charged for, any of the following: ...

7. Expenses incurred for injury resulting from the Covered Person’s being legally intoxicated or under the influence of alcohol as defined by the jurisdiction in which the Accident occurs. This exclusion does not apply to the Medical Evacuation Benefit, to the Repatriation of Remains Benefit and to the Bedside Visit Benefit. 

NOTE: The legal blood alcohol limit in Spain is 0.05  (Source: ASIRT--Assoc. for Safe International Travel). In Newark it is 0.08.
Check this BAC chart to see how much you can drink before reaching the legal blood alcohol level limit. Note that this chart assumes the legal BAC is 1.0. You will  need to cut that in half for Spain. This chart was created by the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention Program at the California State University, Sacramento
