Finally Madrid

We glided over the Spanish countryside, sometimes at around 300 km/h, sometimes crawling along at only 220 km/h. Once in Madrid, we used several connections on the Madrid Metro system to get ourselves to a place that was best described as "the wrong intersection". As it turns out, if you go to the trouble of getting travel directions onto your Kindle, you do still need to read what's actually there. A little more Metro-ing got us to our hotel.

We needed to experience the Spanish culture, so Lyn decided to sample a Spanish delicacy called siesta (sleeping off the sangria). We dedicated the evening to Flamenco music and dancing.



It looks slow in the video. I really needed a much higher frame-rate camera to do justice to the speed of those feet.
