MADRID
Madrid is the capital of Spain. We only spent the evening here before flying home, so we did not have too much time to visit. We walked to Puerta del Sol to see the famous bear statue, the symbol of Madrid, and then on to the Plaza Mayor.
Plaza Mayor
A lot of performers also come out to the plaza. They paint their bodies, dress like magicians and I even saw a lady dressed like a goat. If you take a picture with them, they ask for donations.

It was kind of quiet at the beginning but as the evening progressed, all kinds of people came out to stroll in the plaza. I was amazed to see a lot of elderly people with their bow ties and hats and walking sticks coming out to be in the plaza.
