Still in Madrid
Apparently we are postponing Seville for another day.
So, I went to the Prado which was, as advertised, pretty amazing. There were 3 floors of 12th to 19th century works of art, many of which are some of the most precious in the world.
The lineup was insane, taking me almost an hour to get in, but well worth the wait.
I met a couple of New Yorkers in line who had been to Rome and were spending a few days in Madrid before heading home. We talked during our wait to get in, which made the time pass quickly. They were having a great time and had a lot of funny stories.
After the Prado, I found a Starbucks that looked just like one from home, so I spent some time there sketching and drinking my favorite tea. After a few minutes, a beautiful lass sat down next to me and was reading her Anthropology of Public Health book for a while before asking what I was drawing.
We talked for and discussed: some amazing coincidences about our lives, Land-O-Lakes butter, Target, and other interesting items.
