Sunshine on our shoulders makes us happy!
The gang is all here and to celebrate our biannual gathering we took a four mile walk through El Retiro Park. Wow! What a spectacular arboretum of specimens. There were numerous paths and monuments as well as a few public buildings. The Crystal Palace (greenhouse) was beautiful with its antique glass panes and exterior painted Spanish tiles. The formal gardens featured uniquely sculpted tress. Then back to the hotel for a nappy-wap before dinner. Tonight is pasta night. Yippee! We ventured onto the street and found a local Italian eatery where there was an assortment of pastas and other dishes. The paella was delicious.
