Spain Day 2

Thank you hotel curtains for keeping the light out and letting us sleep! For many reasons it was nice to sleep in and have breakfast at our normal lunchtime. I could seriously get used to the late nights in Spain, late mornings, and mid day siesta! Kind of like I'm back in college.

More sights of the town on the bus tour, got to visit the Royal Palace and Prado museum. Palace is really nice, very ornate. Prado is very different from the Reina Sofia. Fortunately neither Michael or I are big art people, so we are able to cruise through the museums pretty fast - maybe even faster in the Prado. There is only so much I can take of portraits of random people. Did some walking around and lunch at the Plaza Mayor.

A drink and some blogging at an outside cafe before heading to our train to Sevilla. Speaking of trains, we have been public transportation riding experts. A bus from the airport into town, then the subway to the hotel in Madrid...then back on the subway to the train station today. May do more public transportation these 10 days than I have in my life!
