Madrid
I got back from a long weekend in Madrid last night...the weather was almost hitting 40 degree's everyday, and it would stay at that temperature until the evening, eventually dropping to 34 at 11 o'clock at night!!!! so HOT!
Anyway, heat aside, I had a wonderful and cultural time away in Spain. I got to explore the village of Torrelodones and the surrounding areas... One evening we went to see 'Troilus & Cressida' by William Shakespeare at the 'Matadero'in the centre of Madrid. Another day we drove up the mountains, to Avila and explored the walled city. We went for tapas in El Escorial and explored the palace there at night...On the last day we walked around the centre of Madrid, going to the Reina Sofia, Plaza Santa Anna, and stopping for lunch in a quaint Spanish restaurant....
At the theatre:
