Spanish Capital

Madrid, the capital of España, had the feeling of exactly that. It is a big city with a more modern/western feel. The culture of the area is a bit more hidden than in the other cities in Spain but it is there. We walked up and down the streets and through the plazas (maybe even too much). I really enjoyed just being in the city and not having to fill the time with tourist things; it was relaxing.  Here is some stuff I saw here:


A look down Gran Vía,
one of the main drags with big buildings lining the sidewalks


Palacio Real (Royal Palace)
I can´t imagine living in a place this big and extravagant
(no photos allowed, bummer)


La Guernica by Picasso
Pablo may see things differently,
but he sure can express emotion
