Madrid Walks

For one of my classes, we're required to take several walking tours of Madrid. This past week I finished the last one. They were a great way to get familiar with the city and see lots of things, most of them to revisit when I have more time.

Madrid is such a beautiful city, and I'm so glad to be living so close and to be able to go visit regularly.

    Ooo I hope the clothes were fancy and period appropriate to match the building.
    Does the restaurant still serve its original menu?

      I'm not exactly sure. But I do know it's super fancy food! Most of the menu items are in the 20-40 euro range and the most expensive item was about 250!
