P6140767.jpg (100572 bytes) Plaza Mayor - Austere and Grand - This square is one of the largest in Europe and has seen everything from public executions, bullfights to Royal weddings - there are a few sidewalk cafes - we chose one for our last meal in Spain.

P6140779.jpg (91258 bytes) Botín - Hemmingway supposedly called it the best in the world, and Goya supposedly washed dishes there before succeeding as a painter.  No we didn't eat here.
