Hi All, I plan on making entries into the journal from the travel journals that we wrote on our trip. This hopefully will keep the entries fresh and spontaneous (although technically late entries hehehe).

Used the metro to get to our hotel. It was very easy to use and very quick. Hotel Regente is just off of the Gran Via, but is very quiet. Hotel let us check in early (10:00 AM). Showered and went to the TI on the Plaza Mayor. Had lunch of enchilada español(potato omelete). I had a beer with lunch, which was a mistake, asI wasn´t able to stay awake during the hop on hop off bus trip around Madrid. Lunch was at a place on the Plaza Mayor at a restaurant with a bull fighting theme that Rick Steves featured in one of his shows. Took the bus tour, which was bad for a couple of reasons.
