Retiro Park & the crystal palace!
I expected a hall of mirrors, I got a bag of bones! Technically it was a fossil installation some of the titles of the ‘works of art’ were not to my taste ‘your mother sucks cocks in hell” was one of them and a cardboard box painted gold was another exhibit – too far out for me!
Retiro Park was gorgeous, bathed in spring sun, some of the Spaniards even had their coats off, I was in a T Shirt. Walked, relaxed, enjoyed the sun & the weird installation in the Crystal Palace then stopped in at a posh pavement cafe for some tapas & a little wine.
I liked just wandering around happily getting lost then jumping on a train, the metro was so easy, like the London Underground, I stumbled across Banco Espana & one of Madrids best known landmarks so all in all a fantastic day
