I just got back from Madrid on the 5th, and a week is FAR to short a time to allow yourself. The city was everything everyone has said, although I couldnt nearly see enough, but I had the most fantastic time, even if it was only a week. Now I cannot wait to get back. I wish I had known about the Bluefish thing, I could have made it, But I had no time to get on the net, there was far too much to do and see. Maybe next time I'm there.

Hey LJ, thanks for checking in!!!

Looking foreward to reading about your adventures on the board.

I agree, I have lived here for over 6 years and still can't get enough or see it all Big Grin

Not to worry, the bluefish lunch is this coming Sunday, March 2nd.

We did not have a brunch gathering while you were here (our first one was weeks ago) so you did not miss it after all.

So, what was your favorite thing about Madrid???

Saludos,
jer...

Everything. Especially the people. So friendly. I stayed in Colmenarejo, near the Machado University. Since I posted in this forum, I'll mention transportation. The bus and subway is all we ever used to get around. And I found that kind of bus service hard to believe. It does stop, but not for long. We stayed out in Madrid almost all night every almost every night, and there is noooo end day or night of things to do. I regret not having arranged to be there longer. Never left the Madrid area, some other year maybe. I am going back for a few weeks longer visit this summer though. Maybe I'll see some of you then perhaps, it was sure hard to leave, I cant imagine what it's like for people who have stayed around a year or more and gotten to see even more of the country and then return here. I am sure you know what I mean, LJ.
