Madrid

Casey and I have been in Madrid for a week now. Here are some pictures of our wanderings thus far.

Madrid: modern city and beautiful at night

I don't even have a good caption for this.

Hot chocolate and churros

Tanks in the Spanish military parade on their Memorial Day (October 12). 

Soldiers marching in the parade

Crowds of people after the parade and the Metropolis building

Symbol of Madrid: a bear eating fruits of a Madrone tree

Seafood in the Mercado di San Miguel. See the barnacles??!!

Jamon- you can also find one of these in just about every bar in Madrid because they cut fresh pieces of the meat for their tapas and appetizers. 

Royal Palace seen from the Cathedral of Madrid

View of the Palace Gardens and the Manzanares River from the Cathedral. Sorry about the ugly yellow crane :(

Madrid + smog + tall buildings + cityscape
