This is at Huertas in Madrid - a stone's throw away from
Museo del Prado. Huerstas is cool at
night. Everywhere you go is a Tapas Bar,
left right front and back. One of the
guys at the bar enticed me to watched a Flamenco show. He said that his bar is the oldest one to
have shown Flamenco dancing. He was
obviously not a very good liar.
I really loved
Spain. A lot of history and very laid
back. The Spaniards are lazy and they
take siesta from 2pm to 5 pm. So the
stores are close around that time. One
would be fortunate to find an open restaurant.
But it's nice place. The city
becomes alive after 9pm. This is fiesta
time. People including kids sleep 6
hours at the most.
The weather was
gorgeous when I was there. Our last day
was in Madrid and our tour group - all 50 of us - got entangled with the
demonstrators at the city while on the way to our farewell dinner. At the end, there were tear gas and rubber
bullets flying. Quite exciting.
More stories to come.
