Madrid antiguo

Recap of yesterday:
  • Ran in el Parque del Oeste- I didnt think anywhere could rival running through the monuments in DC, but Madrid's got some parks
  • Sat through a ridiculously long orientation

  • Went out like locals=until the metro opened again in the morning

I finally bought a phone!!! Since it was the cheapest one, we all have the same little white phone with lime green trim, so if a group of 30 americans touring the narrow srteets around la Puerta del Sol isn't funny-looking enough, we all have matching bright white, toy-like phones in our hands.

The tour through Madrid antigua, which is basically just the center of the city, was all gorgeous. I'm adding an apartment in the center of Madrid antiguo to my list of "to have when im rich"-list. Mom-side note- we're going to the Guiness-sanctioned oldest restaurant in the world. I don't remember how old the oven is, which distinguishes the restaurant as the oldest, but it's REAL old.
