Marco arrives Tuesday. After a desperate race to the airport in an attempt to surprise him, arrive 5 minutes after the supposed arrival of his plane and the panic comes over me: and if it was already headed for my house? What a fool .. Erika nice surprise! But, fortunately, I see him get off the escalator (having shaved hard to recognize in one!) Sorpresaaaa ..! We head towards Calle Las Huertas Madrid and we begin our week together.
The first day I decide to relax and let us lose ourselves in Malasaña to discover new and unexpected passages vintage. We are literally caught visually by a shop / bakery 6os traits that exposes the pastries in the window that had the most beautiful and imaginative ever seen .. We are filling the screen!
In the following days, we decided to venture out in search of more or less touristic places in Madrid that do not yet know. Then we arrive at the Jardin Botanico, aiuolette natural oasis of well-cured, unusual flora and fauna narcissist.
The greenhouse recreates a microcosm of tropical moist and dark in which to lose rocked the scientific names of exotic plants that live there.
Accidentally (thanks to Raffaele who posted photos on Facebook), she stumbles During the time of Debod this majestic structure was donated by the Egyptian state in 1968 to Spain as a tribute and thanks to aid provided by the Iberian Peninsula to the renovation of Abu Simbel. Unfortunately, the entrance to the temple remains closed for roadworks, but we have the opportunity to admire it from outside and enjoy the magnificent landscape that surrounds it.
then arrives on Thursday evening, great night announced by Carla at the Viva Las Vegas club here, every last Thursday of the month, an impromptu Elvis pseudo marriages celebrated in the "chapel" of the room. Fun by the exciting music of the 60s rock and roll (for instance, the same Marty McFly playing at the ball "Enchantment under the Sea" Back to the Future!) that allows us to launch into wild dances and acrobatic twist more or less. The clothing that most spot-on, as evidenced by the photos, makes us receive lots of compliments!
Other sightseeing tour of art and culture, the Monastery of Las Descalzas Reales, a site dating from the XVI century full of antiques, relics and sacred ornaments that fall in a pass. For an hour and a half we follow the guide will show you that the English the various chapels that characterize this convent, the artistic and architectural interventions that populate every corner of the structure. Forbidden to take photographs, so I consoled with the image of the excellent and high-calorie breakfast of churros and hot chocolate we've done before entering the monastery.
This intense week and also characterized the departure of Gigo, a phenomenal known Mexican friend here in Madrid. In his honor we have dinner at a Mexican restaurant, a little folklore thanks to Rey Mysterio that floats above our heads, and reach the rest of the company in a room to celebrate the farewell of our task.
Sunday spent relaxing at the Retiro. The professional deformation forces us to notice the fantastic pan dan do with their towels on which we lie and we can not help but capture between a laugh and the next.
Week multitasking to Susy Blady (Ross, this is for you).
