Landed in Madrid last night after the worrying transit through Paris. Paris took its pound of flesh this time also: my swiss army knife. Plus they made us take a bus ride to the plane. Nuts.
Anyhow the airport was not shut down. And with a half hour delay. I reached Madrid. The guys I was meeting had set up a dinner with an opera like show, but the flight delay put paid to that. Dinner was eventually at a vegetarian place where they tried to make vegetables look like meat. Ugh. Ate what I could.
Today was all in meetings. The only sightseeing I got was the beautiful view over the city from the hotel restaurant and the view of the skyline with the city’s four sky scrapers. These are built on Real Madrid’s former training ground which the club sold to pay for Ronaldo!
Okay time is up. Post more later.
