Day 5. A few sites around Madrid

Madrid Opera
Tesla

Im pleased at present to  be seated in air conditioned comfort as the sun is particularly hot. Its only 25 degrees but i havent experienced this much sun since last year.  Toronto and London were both wet and cold

Today we took a walking tour.  Lots of standing and a little walking.  The guide did well to entertain a large crowd of 40.  Had lunch at the oldest continual running restaurant in the World. (GUINESS BOOK OF RECORDS)   To get to the tour and return we walked 11 kms so Dave continues to get us in shape.  Did some shopping for the trip to Leon tomorrow.

Since that time we walked to the Prado museum and back so i guess we are up past 15 kms walking to,as Dave puts it, get Steve and i in shape.  Near the end of the Prado, i had trouble with my knee and had to sit down.

Tonight Dave entertained us by buying dinner and treating us to a Tesla ride to the restaurant and back.  Ive been doing better getting out of cars since i took a bicyclist yesterday.
