ATW 2016 - Madrid, Spain - Mar 5-8

March 5-8 - Madrid


My 2016 Around the World trip is posted in 10 separate entries.  Scroll down or up to view them all.  You may have to hit the older posts or newer posts button on the bottom of the page.

My hotel was on the Gran Via, one of Madrid's major streets.  The first evening I went out for wonderful tapas.  I'll probably do the same the next two nights.

On Sunday I walked for miles, seeing sections of Madrid I've never seen before.  Then all of a sudden I recognized some Egyptian ruins I'd seen on a previous trip.  I actually found it on an old blog entry.

The Palace

It was so tempting to buy Spanish clothing.  Most were for the winter so I succeeded in not buying anything other then a T-shirt.

My final night I had amazing paella at La Barraca, a well known and popular restaurant.  I had to get there when they opened to get paella for one.
