Asador 7 de Juli is one of our favorite Madrid restaurants.

Set up for fine dining. We were the first people seated for lunch at 2 pm. Spanish eat quite late!

These were our appetizers which came with the meal.

We took the train back early this morning and are back at the Madrid Marriott Convention Center Hotel. Mostly, we just lazed around. We had lunch at one of our favorite places near the hotel. Tomorrow, we'll take the bus into town for the Botanical Gardens.

We are trying to figure out the logistics of our trip home on Wednesday. We've had such bad luck in recent years with plane cancelations that we hesitate to make any firm plans. If we are on time Wednesday night, we'll take an Uber from the Kansas City airport into town to my brother's house. We left our car and a suitcase there almost 3 months ago now. If we are really late or delayed, we'll probably just sleep near the airport and ride in the next morning.Read more
