Madrid

Our yearly weekend break without the kids. Last year we went to Rotterdam and had a great time (definitely going back someday), this year we are invited to a wedding in Madrid on the same day we have our own four year anniversary. Normally I’m eager to explore new things in a city, but this time we visit a lot of places we have been to three years ago. This time it is about being together - and about food of course.

Having Breakfast on the upper floor of crowded La Mallorquina in between elderly Spanish ladies and gents. Oyster and wine at Mercado de san Anton, Jamon and Cerveza at Mercado de san Miguel. Late night supper at the roof top terrace of Gau Café. – this was a new spot for me but more than worth visiting again someday overlooking the roofs of Madrid - Middle of the night cocktails on top of the Oskar. This all spread over two days of course. At the end of the second day we attended a real Spanish wedding starting in a little church in the hills at six pm, ending at a horse farm at 6 am. It took us about a week to recover but it was definitely worth it.
