Greetings everyone. We had a great day today. An early morning start with a 900 appointment at the Prado Gallery. It was wonderful. Saw some great pieces, by Rembrandt, Diego de Goya, Ruben, and Titiano. Then we walked through the Ritero Park == which seemed to be to be larger than our Golden Gate Park. We also had tapas (for the first time in Spain) at a small tapas bar that is world famous == Rick Steves wrote about it and Maureen and Judy had recommendations to try it. We saw the Palace on the way back to the hotel, and it was lovely.
Were on the way home tomorrow so we decided to eat in tonight (with our bottle of wine of course) and after dinner decided to sit outside the hotel with another bottle of wine to enjoy the music, crowds going by and people watching. Judy got sick after last night´s dinner but she´ll probably never tell you about that. Thankfully, she was fine this a.m.
Now we need to pack and be ready to leave for home at 900 tomorrow. Well be home before some of you read this. Its been a wonderful holiday, the 3 of us spending the time together (and our Scott the first week), but it´s winding to a close and I think we´re all tired now. See you soon.
Annie (and Maureen and Judy)
