La Plaza de España is near the major shopping area of Madrid. It is dedicated to Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, the most important Spanish author. He is the figure in white stone and the characters from his most important novel are located down front - Don Quijote and Sancho Panza.
On this side we were interested to see a scene from the short novel that we read in class this year - La Gitanilla.
We have been taking turns trying to find our way using the map and the street signs. Here Dylan is giving it a go.
Small charming streets are everywhere. This one was near the Plaza Mayor.
We had bocadillos de calamares for dinner in the Plaza Mayor and afterwards we found this lovely illuminated building.
We want something like El Estadio de Santiago Bernabeu for our soccer fans. Real Madrid plays here and it never floods. There is enough seating for all of Southern Vermont.
The players seat´s are pretty nice too, as you can see by these guys´ faces.
