Spanish Flies

It has been a great 5 weeks vacation for me, but sadly I fly home tomorrow while DawnO heads to the UK.  We are spending our last stop together in Madrid, Spain’s capital.  We’ve done our best to explore this international city which included a trip to a museum, a tour through the Palacios Real, and sampling food at a local market.

Palacio Real/Plaza de la Armeria (indoor photos were taken incognito):

Museo del Prado (incognito):

This was the best part of the museum for us.  Throughout the gallery, other artists had set up their own easels and were either creating their own replicas, or were making their own versions of the painting they were studying.

Cathedral de Nuestra Señora de la Almudena:

 

 

 

Crystal Palace/Parque del Buen Retiro:

 

Other random pictures:

I’m pretty sure children were crying at the sight of this headless Mickey.  You can’t really blame the guy when it’s 37 degrees out.

DawnO will be blogging soon about her Sense holiday.  We will be reunited mid-August.
