Madrid

Bank Holiday weekend, took Friday off, so 3 nights in Madrid.  Very early flight and San didn't get back in from Copenhagen until 1am, so 3 hours sleep for her, nap on plane etc.

Obviously Madrid is one of our favourite places, so decided to stay in a new area, near Tribunal, rather than our usual Atocha.  Brand new hotel, all good except wifi was very in and out and it was too hot to sit on balcony, but not hotel's fault.  Staff were lovely.

Only had one meal out in Public, I had pear and duck salad and a lovely blue cheese tagliatelli, San had sopa de maricos and cannelloni, she wasn't  impressed with hers, bit of a  pity, as usually we both have good meals in that chain.  Wine was, as always cheap and good.  The chain that Public is part of are training restaurants always cheap, good wine and reasonable sized meals.

The rest of weekend we had free tapas, loads of beer and wine, best new bar was Bar Avelan on Calle de Sagasta, but found a few other good one, pictures below of bars and food

Secret Garden at top of  Salvador Bachiller shop, is always a must
