Madrid Weekend..Day One

As Grigoria’s parents only have a few months left in Madrid and the British sunny weather has been non existent this year, we thought four days in Spain would be a good break.


Although we flew out mid day Friday, our first real day was Saturday which we spent the morning shopping in one of the ‘out of city’ large shopping centres. It was good success with Grigoria and I both picking up various garments of clothing and shoes which were all considerably cheaper then London prices.

In the afternoon I cooled off with a dipped in the resident’s pool, while Grigoria enjoyed the sun with her nose in a book.

For the evening Grigoria’s parents took us to a fabulous Bavarian styled restaurant which is as the region suggests, it had a great collection of German and International bears.

Although we both didn’t taste the many varieties, it was still a fantastic ambiance and surrounding to enjoy great food and likewise company.
