We had 14 days divided in 3 cities in Spain; Madrid, A Coruña and Barcelona. Parks, castles, churches, cathedrals, more castles, some museums, lots of plazas (squares), like a thousand of monuments, a couple of beaches, family visit, and a whole lotta of food in between.
Although fascinating and honestly mind blowing, I won’t bore you with my mediocre writing of all of the historical sites and incredible experiences we had in Spain as a family. Rather, I’m going to try to taste Spain again through these pictures and hopefully make your mouth salivate as much as my did…does! It is no Elizabeth Gilbert’s “Eat, Pray, Love” but almost more rewarding!
When in Madrid…
-
- Museo del Jamón…it had the best Gazpacho I’ve ever tried!
-
- Mercado San Miguel…forget the expensive paella and tapas but these “pinchos” were the best 4 euros (1 euro each) we spent there.
-
- The perfect texture churros from Chocolatería San Gines.
-
- Everything we ate at Mercado La Reina was good but it’s the Tinto de Verano I’ll remember the most.
-
- Tapa Tapa “bomba atomica” (potato with ground beef ball) Yeah…It was the bomb!
A Coruña…Coming up next (after laundry, soccer practice, soccer games, volunteering, cooking, more cooking, endless dishes and hopefully a shower…maybe two!)
Until then Cheers…Salud!
Like it and can’t wait to visit and taste Madrid. Salud!
