A Coruna and Madrid

Dane went for a run and I walked around to the Tower of Hercules. We had breakfast while there was misty rain. As it was a public holiday nearly everything was shut. We checked out, had coffee and walked around the foreshore to the famous mosaic octopus. It was quite impressive the way it wrapped around the balustrade. We walked back into town for more Galician octopus tapas which tasted good. It's boiled octopus with olive oil, salt and paprika. We also had pork cheek, a mini hamburger and guacamole. We caught a cab to the airport to fly to Madrid. Once landed we caught a train to our hostel. We drank beer on the roof top and really felt the 35 degree temperature! We found a Mexican place for dinner and then ventured to find the street party where there was local bands playing in a square. We danced under the lights to a very popular band before checking out the food delicacies and tasting some chocolate churros.Weiterlesen
