I just returned to Barcelona after a week long tour of southern Spain! The first place we went was Madrid. Let's just say that when we left Madrid, no one was sad to leave. The weather while we were there was drearyand rainy, and chilly. There were a few things worth mentioning though! Check em out below :)
This is the metro by our hotel, a super long yellow tunnel, much different from DC huh?
The first day actually wasn't as bad as the second. Here is an example of the roads that I shot while en route to the Plaza Mayor.
This is me and my class in front of the Royal building in the Plaza Mayor.
Here is a street performer! He was really funny (although hard to understand because he only spoke Spanish), and his name was J. Africa I think.
The same street performer on a unicycle throwing a torch under his leg while juggeling! Whew!
The entrance to this GIANT park in the middle of Madrid, beautiful park!
A colonnade near the man made pond, it was a semicircle (didn't get as many pics as I would have liked to -- my camera was dying)
Mermaid sculptures were around the bottom of that colonnade, and here's the nicest looking one, the rest were all violent.
Where the geometry started... we didn't stay too long in the geometric section!
Cute birdy... Enough said.
An oddly sculptured tree in the park (you can see it i the geometric picture above)
A literal topography! Pretty neat looking though, it was also an islande because of the little stream they built around it,
An interior courtyard of the museum of modern art in Madrid. Sorry guys, no pictures from the inside, pictures weren't allowed.
Looking up in the glass elevator!
