We’re staying in the middle of Madrid for our post-tour rest. An area called Plaza de San Martin.
I’m using the term ‘area’ rather loosely. Literally 170m up a cobbled street is Plaza del Callao.
Head 200m in another direction is Viajés El Corte Inglés, a department store that Sarah has fallen in love with. Think David Jones in Spain.
This is where she found her supermarket.
On the opposite side of that store is Puerta del Sol, another massive plaza.
Lots of old buildings, most beautiful, all well maintained.
Paddington? Probably not
Sarah likes Police horses
Head 350m in another direction from the hotel door, and you arrive at Plaza Mayor, the big square mentioned earlier. I know your mother told you that size doesn’t matter, but the Plaza Mayor in Salamanca was bigger. Just sayin’.
Did I mention that Sarah likes Police horses?
