Madrid - March 2006

Teatro Español at night













Statue of Don Marcelino Menendez Pelayo
(Biblioteca Nacional de España)

















I wanted to take this picture because they will be taking this statue out of the library soon. Menendez Pelayo is considered to be one of the most important philologist in Spain, author of the history of the heterodox.

-- Eating in Madrid --

These pictures were taken in my favorite restaurant in Madrid (name will be kept secret!!!).

Appetizers - sopa de castellana and acelgas













Main Dishes - pulpo a la Gallega, rabo de toro, callos, oso buco and cocido Madrileño (half eaten)
