Day 2 Part 2 Madrid

The first 3 pictures are still in Teledo. Teledo steel is know for being unusually hard and the city has been a traditional sword making center. The gentleman is inlaying gold stands into a metal broach. Absolutely stunning work of art.
You will see my favourite treat - churros and chocolate. Wonderfully warm soft sugar donut - churros, with a thick cup of chocolate. You dip and eat. Absolutely delicious. Thank goodness for doing so much walking!
The Plaza is in Salamanca,it is built in the traditional baroque style. The main part is city hall, and there is a hotel on the opposite side of the square. People live in apartments overlooking the square and are not happy with the new hotel. Though the square is always full of tourist anyways. All around the bottom are shops. The area around the plaza has a market where you can get Tabas.. small plates of finger foods, and are delicious.
The Kings Royal Palace began being built in 1738 and was completed in 1764. In this Plaza is also the Opera House.
The park areas in Spain are beautiful, and have beautiful gates into the area.
We then went out for dinner. Where your waiters are opera singers. When they are not preforming in shows, they work and preform. Some are starting out, some are famous.
