Madrid - May 26, 2013

We had a leisurely morning.  Paid 20 Euros for 2 coffees and an egg sandwich (ouch).  We did a walking tour for a couple of hours which was very interesting starting at the Plaza Mayor and ending at the Puerta del Sol.  We then toured the Royal Palace.  It was pretty amazing - I think we saw 28 rooms - the Palace has 2800 rooms.

We went to see a Flamenco dance show in the evening which was amazing - it was in a small little tapas bar so it was quite intimate and had almost front row seats.

We capped the evening off with a couple of coffees and pastries (cost 3.50 Euros).  Guess where?  The Museo del Jamon (the Museum of Ham)!  Love that place.
