Madrid, the Movida capital
Departure from Torino Iberia flight direct 350,000 lire, Alessandro is with me my dear friend-colleague.
After vain attempts to book a room from us to venture out in search of a room.
The problem is that Spain is a national holiday (Feast of Pilar) and many have taken to the capital.
Arrived at the airport take the metro and we go to one hundred details of Plaza Mayor.
Go to the Puerta del Sol and we notice a small hotel on an internal street, l 'Hotel Riesco.
Let's ask and tell us that everything is full, but how we explain that we must stop a week, after a brief round of phone calls we recover a room with 2 double beds!
A real fortune 33,000 lire in B & B in the center.
Gasatissimi go out to enjoy life in the streets in the capital and we can not fail to visit the Plaza Mayor.
It 'time for dinner, we stop at a tapas where you can sample the real tripe madrilena.Una bomb!
The location is very typical and playing live music.
We stop at a disco where there a lot fun and we know con el pueblo espanol!
The following morning we start the real tour of the city Royal Palace, La Gran Via, and the sweet surprise of the Retiro park.
This park has conquered with its lakes, the Crystal Palace and relaxation which can be transmitted so that there will come almost every day.
In the evening, given the advice of Consuelo (the maid's) we go in the area near the Teatro Espanol, where restaurants and pubs are the real attraction and the locals seem to appreciate the very vitality of the neighborhood.
Every pub and order a cupito evening turns his head that it is a pleasure.
The next morning waived late! Mythical visit the Bernabeu Stadium and we are tempted to see the match of the Champions merengues, but remained only the posts for the forums and not tell you the prices.
Km km on ground without realizing it until we reach the Plaza de Cibeles.
In the evening we go to eat Mexican and then we go to the usual disco where will the return of Real
Madrid fans gasatissimi for the victory and begin to discuss football with other fans dell'Atleta
Madrid, do not imagine that even with aggressive supporters of 'Atletico Real.Che accuse the laughs!
Parcondicio for the next day we go to visit the stadium for athletes the Vicente Calderon and climbing up to the Puerta de retiro Toledo.Puntatina and the Paseo del Prado is located where the famous Museo del Prado (row mileage) that we decide not to visit savor every aspect of life in the capital.
Often we have found to make a nice snack eating slice of cake! Much appreciated breakfasts in
Madrid, to make a bocadillo chains Pans & Company, but our daily had a small snack bar for a drink and enjoying a cervese potatoes brava , a delizia.Ovviamente one can not help but notice the famous and tasty Jamon hung ceilings of many rooms.
E 'Thursday evening and you decide to go to a nightclub Joy Eslava have advised me that in Italy and is located a short distance from our hotel.
The disco was really a theater, there's beautiful people, and towards the 3 are witnessing a spectacle of flamenco, fabulous!
You can talk a lot with the people and the environment is very special.
The next morning we go to Plaza de Toros where you still play real bullfights, siesta al retiro, walk from Atocha station to go back to the Plaza Mayor.
Like nearly all cities of the world, the area near the station is not recommended and rather dirty.
Last night at the disco where salute our friends and we prepare to return to Italy planned for 8.00 am.
What about this city where wealth contrasts with the many tramps marry in the subways, the wild night life and great roads that pass through the imposing.
Only a city so glorious could fascinate and wonder how you could even imagine, but above all we have been able to give a relaxing major moments of leisure, what we wanted from this holiday.
