Madrid

Arrived at Madrid on time – at 2 in the afternoon. Sunshine and good weather. The airport was huge and it took us a while to get the luggage and find the metro. Went straight to the hotel and had a much needed shower. Found a café around the corner where we could get some lunch. 

Did I remember to mention that Iberias breakfast also was crap. Did a short walk and enjoyed the sunshine. Temperature a bit down from yesterday. Only around 12 degrees in Madrid so it was a bit different from Cuba.

Went back to the hotel and had a much needed powernap before going out for dinner. Walked downtown and found a nice but totally packed tapas place. A bit hectic but just the place we wanted to find and spend our last evening on the trip. Had some nice tapas and some red wine before we walked through the streets to Plaza Mayor. Really impressive even at night. Walked back towards the hotel with a short stop at another wine bar for a glass of vino rojo. That’s how a round-the-world trip is supposed to end.
