Our three night trip to Madrid

Madrid's Retiro Park

Back in July of last year Maria and I planned a two week vacation in Spain.  Coronavirus had other plans for us.  We flew into Madrid, arriving Wednesday afternoon and flew out on Saturday morning.  In between we walked the city, crowds thin to begin with and dissipating with each passing day.  It was stressful, for sure, but also beautiful.  I sincerely hope the Spanish people can avoid what Italy is currently facing, but it does not look good at the moment.

Beautiful food in the Mercado de San Miguel

Museums were closed so all we could do was look at the exteriors

And more Retiro

It felt good to be outside - warm enough for rosé!

Madrid is filled with beautiful spaces
