We started the day by heading to Palacio Real but the line was unreal and with the thought of a long wait in line we decided to save it for another day.
We then headed to the Museo Sorella who was one of our favourite painters from the Prado. This beautiful collection of stunning paintings are housed in the original house where he and his family lived.
This was my fav piece:
What else to do with a Sunday afternoon... we decided to head to the Parque del Retiro. We were not the only ones; families made it very lively and it really is a beautiful park with a lake in the middle. We got some snacks and headed to a comfy grassy spot to enjoy the warm sunny weather (in the shade!)
After catching a quick siesta we headed back to hotel and I had a long nap! We hit the awesome veggie buffet for dinner which was very tasty.
While I was sleeping, Anna discovered a awesome bar (Sala Juglar) that for 10 euros we could get a drink and see a Flamenco Show. I was not prepared for its awesomeness! The dancers were so powerful and inspirational. These are the dancers:
The video is awesome but sadly, I tried to upload a couple of the videos but either the hotel or blogger would have none of it :(
Today we are off to the Centre de Arte Reina Sofia and a second attempt at Palacio Real.
