Royal Palace

After lunch we visited the Royal Palace.  This was easily the most ornate structure we have seen.  The total cost must be in the billions.  A no camera policy deprived me of images... but I would highly recommend a visit to anyone visiting Madrid.  After 12 miles romping around we boarded the tight hotel lift and retired.

Giddee Up

We wandered around waiting for the rooms and stumbled on a monument for Don Quixote.  After about 3 house of walking we had a snack at a tapas bar.

Hello Madrid

We made it to the Westin Palace hotel in the center of Madrid after a 30 minute taxi from the airport.  The weather is Fabulous....

Everyone is aboard the 757 ready for the overnight flight.  The accommodations are very nice. The captain just shook our hands... he says nice weather on route and the conditions in Madrid are fabulous....
