Goodbye Madrid-Tuesday-4/5

Madrid/New York, Day 62-we had a great last evening in Madrid at the Gourmet Experience a few blocks from our hotel. It’s an interesting concept that seems to be working well. Gourmet food stalls, bars, groceries and liquor. It’s all perched on top of a department store with killer views of Madrid. We managed to get a view table from a US couple that were leaving. Pete had pizza and I had dim sum, yayyyy everyone gets exactly what they want.

We were up earlier this morning to finish packing, have breakfast and catch out 10:15 shuttle to the airport. Of course it was sunny and warmer today. We flew on Lufthansa to Frankfurt and then on to New York. With a 16 hour travel day, we were determined not to sleep, so we could adjust to the time change easier. Got into JFK at 7:30 pm and were able to get a normal nights sleep. We are meeting our friend Susan Sugar in Manhatten tomorrow and don’t want to be zombies. image
