Madrid 7/8/07


After waking up far too early, the final day in Madrid started with a trip to the Palacio Real de Madrid. The exterior of the building, while beyond belief in size failed to inspire me. This changed however after I had entered its main square.



To the south of this square was the incredible Catedral de la Almudena.



The remainder of the day was spent at the Museo del Prado, which arguably had the best art collection I had ever seen. Highlights for me were seeing several pieces by Raphael (the ninja turtle), Bosch and Goya. I now leave this posting with a random statue I saw on the streets of Madrid and liked. I'll be back next Monday after I get back from Prague.
