Madrid y Segovia

So, from the begining, here is where we camped. Well... not here here but near the Santiago Bernabeu metro station. And what is most funny is that we only visited it in the last day although we passed by it every day. PS: As everybody knows I am not a football fan but I must say it is impressing:

So, in the first day we explored the neigbourhood.

The next day we went on a speed trip back in time: with a fast train through the mountains we went to Segovia.
The most famous thing is their Roman Aqueduct:

That goes from here:

To here:

What i realy loved was the light-shadow dance in all the city:






Another thing to see is the Alcazar:


And like in every city I love the streets:

Back in Madrid!
PS: Mea culpa but I did not know it has a river.
We went to see the clasicals: Plaza Mayor

But most of all I was captivated by the curiosities: Sweet shops
Museo de Jamon
Mercado de San Miguel

More buildings of course :)




Back to the clasics: The Atocha Railway station:
Just a little bit of Centro de Arte Reina Sofía - very very modern.

Back to little curiosities, just some walls:


Palau Regal:



And I really liked this window (some people have such a sense of color: purple curtans, green windows and yellow shoes)...

and this dog!


So to end my story in a cliclic way, as I said in the last day we vivited the Santiago Bernabeu, where me and my back found the most comftable chairs:
