Up at four and off out into the dark at half past...
Taxi to the airport and through security almost without a hitch - "boots off please"...
Breakfast...
...and on to the plane...
...leaving the rain behind...
Two hours and forty minutes to...
... Madrid...
A series of trains into the centre...
The beast was about its business reflected in the window...
A couple of switcheroos...
...and out at the up and coming area of Lavapies (washing the feet), the former Jewish Quarter...
Our street...
Our apartment...
Out the back was very quiet...
Dropping our bags while apartment-prep was finalised, we took our first foray around the neighbourhood, which led us to Cafelito...
...where refreshments were required...
...to combat the too hot heat...
At the nearby Mercado de San Fernando, a quick lunch was enjoyed from this very stall...
...followed by a walk back to the apartment...
...getting some provisions on the way...
Some planning on the balcony...
The views from the office this afternoon...
More exploration, this time heading up towards the centre...
...suitably attired for the conditions...
Plaza Santa Ana...
...and on to the very aptly named Puerta del Sol...
to Callao and along the Gran Via...
Then, down through Plaza de San Martin...
...and on into the Plaza Mayor...
Back to Puerto del Sol...
Back by Plaza Santa Ana...
..and to our street...
More shopping for essentials...
I did not go for the green cheese...
The view from the office this evening...
Out to a nearby recommended restaurant...
...and then, a constitutional along the buzzing Calle Argumosa...
...at the end of which we found this...
...which turned out to be the latest addition to this, the Reina Sofia Art gallery...
..which sits adjacent to the Music Conservatory...
The moon was out...
...as were the footballing kids...
A walk home in the twilight, along Calle de Santa Isabel...
...to find our street alive with activity...
...which was viewed from the balcony...
...while refreshments were enjoyed...
Man, it was hot...
...but we were finding our feet in Madrid...
A good start...
Highlight of the Day : Madrid...
