Just a quick note following yesterday's post. We're wrapping up our first day in Madrid. The trip went quite well, the kids did great. Upon arriving in Madrid, we were greeted by our friend Maite's sisters, which was terrific and made the arrival so much smoother and easier.
From the air Madrid appears somewhat arid, but once on the streets you appreciate the vast and varied number of pine trees and their derivations. Madrid has lots of gardens, spectacular buildings, beautiful streets and quite a number of people walking. We are just taking it all in :)
We are very tired though, so we took a brief stroll to go eat a "Bocadillo" (little baguette sandwich) with Chorizo (yum!) around this area (Atocha) and hope to spend the day tomorrow looking at apartments. Cross your fingers!!
