View from the cabby's window - Approaching the
center of Madrid from the airport. See the crane in the background -
We saw a lot of construction underway throughout Madrid and the resort
coast. |
 |
Our hotel - and our open balcony window!
Located on "Calle Montara Montalbán" - Puerto del Sol, the
center of Madrid. |
 |
When people want to meet in Madrid they meet at
the bear with a Madroño (strawberry tree)! Just a few feet from our
Hotel's sidewalk café, at Puerto del Sol. |
 |
Narrow Streets! This one is across the
street from the bear. |
 |
The fountain of Puerto Del Sol - looking West |
 |
The streets are narrow and the parking spot are
small to non-existent - but the driver of this bright little car is taking
things to the extreme! |
 |
See the posts beside the building? They're
not there just to protect the building from people - cars also use this
"street"! |
 |
Forget the right angles and easy directions of
Phoenix - in Madrid the
streets go any which way. |
