After a hard week of apartment hunting, we took the weekend to explore our new home, Madrid! All the rental agencies were closed anyway.
We explored some beautiful plazas and then rented bikes and and an electric scooter for Jett to zip around Retiro Park. No pictures there since we were going so fast. Then we had to try the famous churros and hot chocolate, which is actually thick chocolate syrup. It was delicious and may be a regular breakfast for us!
Then we explored the palace, the plaza San Miguel, and most importantly almost adopted the worlds cutest chihuahua. We also checked out the palace cathedral which was beautiful and huge and had lots of statues and paintings of Jesus. I had to finally explain who Jesus was to Jett. Where to begin… Jett spoke his first Spanish sentence to a Spanish person, “mas pan, por favor.” Bread may be the gateway to learning!
