After a smooth travel day yesterday, or the last two days, or whatever, we arrived in Madrid last night to very warm weather and a clean hotel near the airport. We are thankful to have made our connection in London (the advised transit time of 90 minutes was no joke) and to retrieve our one piece of luggage successfully in Madrid. Since it contained all of our “camp” supplies, that was a relief.
Jim and I both woke at 5 a.m. ready to hit the road, but then after talking for a few minutes and deciding we could just relax, we promptly fell back to sleep for three and a half hours. Zowie. Breakfast helped get us going again, and now we’re off.
Fes, here we come.
