Madrid

Ole! I finally managed to upload some more pictures of our four days in Madrid. First one, still in Canada, is of Marie at the airport in Montreal looking happy and eager to a month of roaming around Europe! We will miss everyone for sure but thanks to all who gave us their blessings and best wishes and to Fernanda especially who recommended so many wonderful places to eat in Barcelona! We have a camera installed in the house at home so we can check in now and then and our friend Reg will probably keep our driveway clear of any snow - God forbid we need any more - till we return. I will be updating our four days and experiences in the city of Gaudi soon. Meanwhile happy spring to all where ever you are from sunny Spain! gws
