Pictures of Madrid

Hola,
These are my pictures that I got from friends since I did not have my camera with me.
Me infront of the Royal Palace.
The ride to Madrid, Pictures ended up a little out of order.
Me and Ben, he's acting aa little creaping in this one.
One of the really detailed lamps at the Royal Palace and yes that is gold.
A view of the of the Royal Palace Square.
The Cathedral across from the Palace, I guess the king didn't want to walk far to go to church.
I didn't know this picture was being taken.
A view of the forest near Madrid and the mountains in the distance.
Random.
On our way to our Hostel. Jeff on the left me on the right.
And here we are at our hostel, MAD. It was really nice.
This is our room. We had good beds and lockers to store our valuables.
This is the rooftop bar and the exercise room is near by.
The view from the roof.
We lived in the China-town of Madrid. It was not at all like the ones in New York, Toronto, or San Francisco, but it was a little different than the rest of Madrid.
Reina Sofia, the Modern Art Museum. I saw Picasso and Dali for free it was awesome!
A view of the square in front of Reina Sofia.
Madrid had an exhibition of art cows all over the city. This was my favorite so I decided to milk it, am I doing it right?
We found Mickey in Madrid on this ledge of a water fountain.
Does your cities post office look like this.
I cannot remember what this arch is for, but I remember they had to move it so that more traffic could get through.
A fountain in the Park of Good Retirement (the translation).
This is lake in the park and an area with really cool statues. You can rent a boat and go out and around the lake.
This was a cool wall that has plants growing all over it.
AND NOW...
THE FUTBOL GAME (soccer)
Kick-off
AND REAL MADRID SCORES A GOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!
AND THE CROWD GOES WILD!
Hurrah! (Me, Jeff, and Ben) We accidently sat in the wrong seats, the 40Euro instead of the 25Euro that we purchased.
Us with an awesome background of the stadium.
It is huge, it holds 100,000 people or more.
Well that is all for now.
Until Next Time,

  1. lol...if it was a real cow, you would almost be milking it right...but since it's not real, i'm sorry to say that that's definitely not the way to milk a cow...
