July 13, Sunday
We arrived in Madrid Barajas Airport @ 13:30 (2 hours flight from Paris). As soon as we arrived, (being a Filipino)I immediately grasped the signs around...
The place is full of churches (like every corner has one!). Aside from churches, there’s nothing much to see, except their plazas and museums. Maybe out of Madrid, like Santiago or Barcelona, we even thought of watching bull fight, but tickets were sold ahead of time (for at least a month)!
see the churches' steeple
plaza del sol and plaza de espana
the famous plaza mayor
with classmates Melinda (Romania) and Sophia (Taiwan)
@ Centro de Arte Reina Sofia
looking at these "still act", life, indeed, is hard...
need to be talented in order to earn...
What I enjoyed most was their food…hmmm….
Think of “paella” (the authentic taste), churos dip in cocoa (chocolate)…
and the like!
yum... yum...yum...
ham museum and restaurant
The only thing I didn’t try is “creo diaz”… since there’s a story about this, I will never, never look for it next time…( I already told the story to some of you he-he-he).
