Adios Espagna

---

Mission accomplished, research completed and beautiful building seen without hoards of shoppers - a good morning. The invoice will be going to QVG Capital as we are pretty sure we can't claim the trip as a tax deduction! That comment is to see if Chris is actually reading his parent's blog!!!!!!!

We are now waiting to go to the airport listening to the helicopter circling overhead checking out the lie of the land before the Vuelta (correct name for the Tour d'Espagna) finishes around 10.30pm. We had a hilarious trip back with the cab driver who was obviously of the opinion that if he spoke louder these crazy foreigners would understand what he was saying. It must have worked as we realised he was saying he might need to detour (much arm circling) to get back into the centre of Madrid!!

Heading off now so, for the last time from Espagna ... Adios and thank for travelling with us, for your love and prayers.

Remote controlled cars for children to drive in around the shopping centre (operated by parents) - are we the only ones who wonder how long this will last? There were also the ride on horses we have seen in Australia here!!

Last roof shot
I love how there is very normal in the foreground, a palace in the background and beautiful blue sky.

Vuelta - Via Gran
Where they are coming from and where they are going!!

You've obviously had a wonderful time and now coming back to nicer days in the Capital. Spring has certainly sprung!! Safe travels, look forward to a catch in the weeks ahead. Blessings Phil and Liz
