DIM: too bad.
Ok, here's a briefing on what I did in Madrid. On the whole it was a very cultural trip. My family and I visited both the Prado and the Reina Sofia museums. So now I can boast with that I've seen paintings by Dalì, Rubens, Masson, Velasquez, Picasso and Goya, to name the most famous ones, IRL. Especially the temporary exhibition with André Masson's works was very cool. We also did quite a lot of sightseeing and general strolling around in the old parts of Madrid.
We wanted to visit the royal palace too, but the queue was 300 meters long and moved very slowly. Guardia Civil was checking all openings to the sewers to be sure there weren't any bombs, and the very grim guys with machineguns didn't make the whole thing more inviting, so we did something else.
We did also visit Toledo and Chinchón, both very pittoresque towns. In Toledo, the cathedral was investigated, and I got tempted to buy a full medieval armor, but I didn't have the 3000 required on my credit card account so I had to let it be.
Chinchón was even more pittoresque than Toledo, and far more provincial. Only the local grand square made it worth the trip there, and the narrow alleys were cozy.
And yes, I didn't buy that much spirits on the airport, so you don't need to pray for my liver.
