Spain Day 5 - Monday

We woke early today to pack up and make our way to the high speed train station. We took a very speedy three hour trip across the Spanish countryside and were wowed by the beautiful landscape and countless vineyards. 

Hadley navigated us into a quaint little area of Madrid where we had lunch at very authentic family owned restaurant. You might get chips & salsa in the United States upon entering some Mexican restaurants. The welcome dish here was a plate of warmed potatoes, ham & blood sausage!

Having found next to nothing for vegetables in Barcelona, we were thrilled with their giant platter of pink heirloom tomatoes drenched in olive oil & sea salt!!

With our bellies full, Hadley lead us to a secret door that you could order cookies from sequestered nuns! 

We then made our way to an old convent that had been turned into apartments for our stay in Madrid.

Where we washed & dried our clothes like most Spainards do - out our window and all over the kitchen, hehe.
