to madrid


Today, Claire and I took the train north to Madrid. Our goal was to visit the Royal Palace and the Prado together before I head back to the states. The Royal Palace was spectacular. The Prado was a treat for Claire, who has been studying the Art History of Spain. I took photos in the palace, but because we couldn't use flash, they are too blurry to post. If you do a web search, you will find many beautiful photos of the palace on line.

My last night in Spain - after visiting the Prado, we went to dinner at the restaurant in the hotel. The waiter was very friendly and brought us after dinner liquer - anise flavored- with our desert.
