DAY 183 MADRID BREAD

Fresh Bread Smells From The
Local Panaderia
Ezra Says I’m Hungry

Sunday. Woke up and purchased some bread at the local panaderia – 2 blocks away. Everything we need is only a couple of blocks away. We can walk everywhere. The Metro stop is a couple of blocks away as well. We stayed around the house most of the day. I did make a trip to the farmers market and purchased some fresh fruits and vegetables. The fish market even sold eels and fruit juice for 1 Euro. At the playground, people and children are enjoying the park – old and young – boys and girls – men and women. They have a small soccer field the size of a basketball court. A pick-up game is going on of co-ed soccer – mostly girls – seemed to be easily organized. The park was dirty and filled with lots of bottles and trash from the night before. Madrid does have a smell of urine in the morning. The Spanish culture seems more social and fun of recreating than Rome and Vienna. Lots of big dogs enjoying the playground. The older people were playing a game with silver Bocci Calls. The weather has been overcast with slight rain and colder than imagined. Enough is enough.
