4/22 Madrid

Madrid is a wonderful place to visit even when raining and dreary. We visited the Palacio Real today and managed to snap this picture of the front when there was a random ray of sunshine. The palace is not used as the home of King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia now. They live in a smaller palace, but it is used for important government events.
Here Bit is just amazed at the sights.


We had to ask special permission in order to take this photo in the guardhouse of the palace.


We stopped in the Plaza Mayor (Main Square) for this shot of the group.


The restaurant under the archways had wonderful churros y chocolate. We also had some traditional torrijas which Hannah says taste like French toast but better.
