Madrid 7/6/09

For the first time in Europe I saw blue skies with no clouds! Touching down around noon in Madrid, I first swung by the hostel on Calle Gran Via to drop off my gear.



Allen (my roommate in Utrecht) and I then swung out to explore the city center, first heading towards Puerta del Sol. From there we headed towards Parque del Retiro and explored it for a couple of hours.







After partaking in a siesta we then hit up Plaza Mayor and the town center for the night.
