Spain 4

Paella isn't on the list, but how can you not eat some??

Hola Paella!

Adios Paella...

#67: See the Goya frescoes in the Hermitage of San Antonio de la Florida

Photos weren't allowed.  Clearly, I don't follow rules well!

#64: Try the grilled chicken at Casa Mingo
I literally don't know why you would even try anything else here.  Sorry I'm a terrible tourist and didn't get a picture of the actual chicken and hard cider.  My mouth is watering just thinking about it...



#28: See the Guernica at the Reina Sofia.
Please click here to read about this amazing painting.


#46: Visit the Thyssen

#66: Roar with the lions in front of the Congreso de los Disputados

Once an ADPi, always an ADPi <>

#99: Enjoy the graffiti



#91: Meet an old friend for coffee
I mean, wasn't this whole trip about meeting an old friend??  Di doesn't like coffee, so I had coffee with a new friend, Laura!

Cafe con Leche...yum!

#35: Listen to jazz at Cafe Central
Ok, so we went during the day and there was no jazz.  I counted it as a half point.


#21:  See the Don Quijote and Sancho Panza statue in the Plaza de Espana


#15: Eat a sweet treat at La Mallorquina

Chocolate Napoleon 

#10: Climb to the roof of the Circulo de Bellas Artes


#41: Eat Indian food in Lavapies

Surprisingly lacking in spice, but still delish.

Numbers 28, 46, 66, 99, 91, 35, 21, 15, 10, and 41 were all done in one day. Plus a few sites that weren't on the list...

Until next time,

  5. Di, you gave a challenge and I accepted it. So really you did make me run all over. I suppose I should say that it was Laura who ran me all over this day, not you. You had class, boo. Where should we go on our next adventure?

    Mal, we had a fantastic time!! I would go back in a heartbeat.
